초록

본 논문에서는 디지털 통신시스템의 성능 평가를 위한 효율적인 새로운 성능 평가 기법을 제안하고, 디지털 위성방송 채널에서의 수행시간의 획기적인 개선 효과를 제시하고 있다. 제안 알고리즘에서는 기존의 Importance Sampling 기법이 안고 있는 근본적인 문제점을 해결하기 위하여, 센트랄 모우멘트 기법을 도입 사용하였다. 즉, 채널 부/복호기를 제외한 내부채널의 수신단에서 잡음이 혼합된 수신신호의 센트랄 오우멘트를 측정하여 수신신호의 확률적인 특성, 즉 누적확률분포함수를 구하고 이를 이용하여 채널 부/복호기의 성능을 평가함으로서, 채널 전체의 성능을 단시간에 완료할 수 있다. 또, 디지털 위성방송 채널을 이용한 시뮬레이션 결과를 토대로 시뮬레이션 시간 측면에서 알고리즘의 효율을 보이고 있으며, 부호화기를 포함한 비선형 위성 채널과 M-dimensional memory에서의 Importance Sampling 기법이 갖고 있는 문제점을 제안된 알고리즘을 이용해 해결했음을 보여주고 있다.

In this paper, the efficient new performance evaluation method for digital communication channels is suggested and verified its efficiency in terms of simulation run-tim for the digital satellite broadcasting satellite TV channel. In order to solve the difficulties of the existing Importance Sampling(IS) Technics, we adopted the discrete probability mass function(PMF) in the new method for estimating the statistical characteristics of received signals from the measured Nth order central moments. From the discrete probability mass function obtained with less number of the received signal than the one required in the IS technic, continuous cumulative probability function and its inverse function are exactly estimated by using interpolation and extrapolation technic. And the overall channel is simplified with encoding block, inner channel performance degra-dation modeing block which is modeled with the Uniform Random Number Generator (URNG) and concatenated Inverse Cummulative Pr bility Distribution function, and decoding block. With the simplified channel model, the overall performance evaluation can be done within a drastically reduced time. The simulation results applied to the nonlinear digital satellite broadcasting TV channel showed the great efficiency of the alogrithm in the sense of computer run time, and demonstrated that the existing problems of IS for the nonlinear satellite channels with coding and M-dimensional memory can be completely solved.
