Abstract

When channel state information (CSI) is available at the transmitter, the system throughput can be enhanced by adaptive transmissions and opportunistic multiuser scheduling. In this paper, we consider multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems employing bit-interleaved coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (BIC-OFDM). We first propose a bit-loading algorithm based on the Levin-Campello algorithm for the BIC-OFDM. Then we will apply this algorithm to the MIMO system with a finite set of constellations, by reassigning residual power on each stream Simulation results show that proposed bit-loading scheme which takes the residual power into account improves the system performance especially at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) range.

송신단에서 채널 상태 정보를 알 수 있는 경우, 적응 알고리즘을 통한 전송 및 다중사용자 스케줄링을 통해 시스템 전송률을 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 비트 인터리버와 결합한 부호화된 직교 주파수 다중 분할 (BIC-OFDM; Bit-Interleaved Coded Orthogonal frequency Division Multiplexing) 기법을 기반으로 하는 다중안테나 (MIMO; Multiple-Input Multiple Output) 시스템을 고려한다. 먼저 Levin-Campello 알고리즘을 개선한 비트 로딩 (bit-loading) 기법을 제안하고, 이를 다중안테나 시스템으로 확장하여 한정된 개수의 신호 성상을 사용하는 데 따르는 잔여 파워 문제를 극복하는 알고리즘을 제시한다. 실험 결과는 제안하는 기법이 시스템 성능을 개선시키며 특히 높은 신호 대 잡음비 (SNR; Signal-to-Noise Ratio) 영역에서 기존의 기법에 비하여 큰 성능 이득을 제공함을 보여준다.
