Abstract

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) based IEEE 802.11 a/g systems which are widely used in wireless LAN carry out channel estimation in one time per packet since the systems use only preamble. Whereas, midamble based channel estimation supports continuous channel estimation by tracking the channel state information periodically. Using IEEE 802.11p Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE) system, we analyze the performance of the proposed system via practical measurements. Based on these results, practical issues on midamble based channel estimation are investigated.

무선랜에서 널리 사용되는 OFDM기반의 IEEE 802.11a/g 시스템에서는 채널추정시 프리엠블 (preamble)만을 이용하기 때문에 한 패킷당 한 번의 채널추정을 수행한다. 미드엠블 (Midamble)을 이용한 채널추정은 기존의 프리엠블을 이용하는 방식에 비해 채널의 상태 정보를 주기적으로 추적함으로서 연속적인 채널추정이 가능하도록 한다. 본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11p기반의 차량통신시스템에서 미드엠블을 이용한 채널추정기법의 성능을 실제 측정된 결과를 바탕으로 분석한다. 측정된 결과를 이용하여 실제 시스템에서 미드엠블을 이용한 채널추정기법의 적용 이슈에 대해 논의 한다.
