Abstract

In multiple antenna systems, vertical Bell Labs Layered Space-Time (V-BLAST) systems enable very high throughput by nulling and cancelling at each layer detection. In this paper, we propose a V-BLAST system which combines with signal space diversity technique. The benefit of the signal space diversity is that we can obtain an additional gain without extra bandwidth and power expansion by applying inphase/quadrature interleaving and the constellation rotation. Through simulation results, it is shown that the performance of the proposed system is less than 0.5dB away from the ideal upper bound.

V-BLAST (Vertical Bell Labs Layered Space-Time) 시스템은 다중 안테나를 사용하는 시스템에서 각각의 레이어를 간섭 무효화 및 제거기법을 통하여 추정하기 때문에 간단한 복잡도에 비해 높은 전송률을 가능하게 한다. 본 논문에서는 신호 공간 다이버시티 기법을 적용시킨 V-BLAST 시스템을 제안하고자 한다. 신호 공간 다이버시티 기법의 큰 장점은 신호좌표를 회전시키고 인페이즈 (inphase) 와 쿼드러쳐 (quadrature) 성분을 섞어줌으로서 추가적인 대역폭이나 전송 파워의 상승 없이도 다이버시티 이득을 얻을 수 있다. 모의실험을 통해서, 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템의 성능이 이상적인 시스템 성능에 비해 0.5dB로 근접함을 보여주고자 한다.
