Abstract

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) that is very useful for the high-speed communication system has serious problem of high peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR) in time domain. Because of this, the non-linear distortion can be produced and system performance gets worse. CI-OFDM system can get the peak power lowered. In this CI-OFDM system, each parallel data is distributed into N all sub-carriers and conveyed by the orthogonal phase factor. Also, CI-OFDM shows frequency diversity effect. Therefore, CI-OFDM system is better than ordinary OFDM system in terms of BER performance and the PAPR reduction. When it is implemented, however, there is a serious problem whether it can separate and compensate the phase factor in order in the receiver. Because all bits are transmitted simultaneously over all subcarriers and each other phase factors in transmitter. In this paper, we propose and evaluate a FD-CI-OFDM system that is a version of improved CI-OFDM. This is designed by use of the Walsh Hadamard sequence. The FD-CI-OFDM shows better performance than ordinary OFDM and CI-OFDM system.

높은 데이터 전송 속도를 갖는 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 통신 시스템은 시간 영역에서 높은 PAPR(Peak-to-Average Power Ratio)이 발생되는 중요한 단점이 있다. 이 때문에 송신 신호의 비선형 왜곡을 일으켜 통신 성능을 매우 나쁘게 된다. CI(Carrier Interferometry) - OFDM 시스템은 각각 병렬 데이터를 N개의 모든 부반송파와 서로 직교하는 위상 성분에 실어 전송함으로써 첨두값이 낮추는 효과를 얻는다. 또한, 한 데이터를 N개의 부반송파에 나누어 전송하기 때문에 주파수 다이버시티(FD: Frequency Diversity) 효과를 얻는다. 그러므로 CI-OFDM은 PAPR 저감과 BER 개선에 우수한 성능을 보인다. 그러나 CI-OFDM을 실제로 구현할 때, 송신기에서 모든 데이터마다 각각 다른 위상 성분들과 반송파에 실려 동시에 전송되기 때문에 수신기에서 독립적인 위상 성분들을 차례로 보상할 수 있는가가 매우 중요한 문제점이 된다. 이 논문에서는 Walsh Hadamard 시퀀스를 사용하여 각 병렬 데이터를 구분하고, 동시에 기존 CI-OFDM의 특성을 갖는 개선된 CI-OFDM, 즉 FD-CI-OFDM 시스템을 제안하고 성능을 평가한다 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 그 성능이 기존 OFDM이나 CI-OFDM보다 개선됨을 보인다.
