초록

OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing)은 높은 데이터 전송률과 고속의 데이터 전송에 매우 효과적인 시스템이다. 그러나 높은 PAPR(peak to average power ratio) 때문에 송신기의 비선형 HPA(high power amplifier)에서 비선형 왜곡이 되어 통신성능이 매우 나빠진다. 본 논문에서는 통신 성능을 개선하기 위하여 비선형 왜곡에 의한 IMD(inter-modulation distortion)를 저감 기법을 기반으로 하는 톤 제어 방식의 CI/OFDM(tone-controlled carrier interferometry orthogonal frequency division multiplexing)을 제안한다. 톤 제어 방식의 CI/OFDM 시스템은 CI/OFDM 시스템의 각 데이터 심볼마다 추가로 컨트롤 톤을 삽입하여 비선형의 영향을 미치는 PAPR과 IMD를 감소시켜 비선형에 보다 잘 대처할 수 있는 방법이다. 그러므로, PAPR 저감을 기반으로 한 기존의 방법보다 BER(bit error rate) 성능을 더 향상시킴을 보인다.

OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) is very effective forhigh data rate transmission system. However, communication performance becomes worse because of nonlinear distortion resulting from the PAPR. In this paper, we like to propose a tone-controlled CI/OFDM system including the TMD (inter-modulation distortion) reduction method in order to improve the BER performance. In this tone-controlled CI/OFDM system, control tone is additionally inserted in each data symbol of CI/OFDM system to make the CI/OFDM lower the PAPR and robust to nonlinear distortion. So, tone-controlled CI/OFDM using the IMD reduction method shows better BER (bit error rate) performance than methods based on PAPR reduction.
