Abstract

This paper proposes JBSTBC (Joint Beamforming Space-Time Block Coding) scheme for MIMO (Multi-Input Multi-Output) communication systems. To enhance the order of spatial diversity in presence of deteriorative fading correlations as well as inter-substream interferences, the proposed JBSTBC method employs joint eigen-beamforming technique together with the BOLD (block-ordered layered detector) for MIMO-STBC. In order to confirm superiority of the proposed JBSTBC method, the computer simulations are conducted in highly correlated fading situations with providing detailed mathematical derivations for clarifying functionality of the proposed scheme.

본 논문에서는 MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) 시스템을 위한 JBSTBC (Joint Beamforming Space-Time Block Code) 기법에 대해 소개한다 제안된 기법은 부스트림간 간섭등의 열악한 페이딩 상관이 존재하는 경우에 공간 다이버시티 이득을 높이기 위해 블록순 계층적 검파기(block-ordered layered detector)와 함께 송수신 고유빔 형성기법을 적용하였다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 JBSTBC 기법의 성능을 분석하기 위하여 여러 경우의 채널 환경에서 모의실험을 수행하였으며, 이러한 영향을 분명히 하기 위해 자세한 수식적인 유도를 수행하였다.
