It is important to select the most appropriate channel for efficient transmission of massive multimedia data between smart devices in wireless sensor network. In the fixed channel method, sensor nodes can restrict usefulness of frequency and may be a major constraint to support frequency at various environments. In this paper, we propose a modified efficient channel search algorithm that determines available channel and tolerance of interference of links between two nodes. From the results of computer simulation, the proposed method shows that the link of channel can be set efficiently than the other methods even if the number of interference links increases and the beacon packet waiting time caused by interference is reduced remarkably.

In this paper, we analyze and compare several co-channel interference mitigation algorithms for WBAN application in 2.4 GHz ISM frequency bands. ML (Maximum Likelihood), OC (Optimal Combining) and MMSE (Minimum Mean Square Error) has been considered for the possible techniques for interference cancellation in view of the trade off between the performance and the complexity of implementation. Based on the channel model of IEEE 802.15.6 standard, simulation results show that ML and OC attains the lower BER performance than that of MMSE if we assume the perfect channel estimation. But, ML and OC have the additional requirement of implementation for his own and other users's channel estimation process, hence, besides the BER performance, the complexity of implementation and the sensitivity to channel estimation error should be considered since it requires the simple and small sized equipment for WBAN system application. In addition, the gap of detection BER performance between ML, OC and MMSE is much decreased under the imperfect channel estimation if we adopt real channel estimation process, therefore, in order to apply to WBAN system, the trade off between the BER performance and complexity of implemetation should be seriously considered to decide the best co-channel interference cancellation for WBAN system application.

In this paper, we propose coordinated scheduling and beamforming based on limited feedback to overcome the effects of inter-cell interference in multi-cell environment. The goal of this study is to improve a performance of cell-edge area significantly affected by the inter-cell interference and also to guarantee a performance of the entire system. Existing coordinated scheduling and beamforming based on the perfect channel state information generates an overhead for the channel state information feedback and exchange at the users and base stations, respectively. In this study, first we propose a novel codebook to obtain a null space of an interference channel efficiently which can be used to reduce the inter-cell interference. Using the proposed codebook, we propose coordinated scheduling and beamforming to improve the performance of cell-edge area and the entire system. Through the proportional fair scheduling, the performance of the proposed technique is shown as improvement of channel capacity for users located cell-edge area and entire system.

In this paper, we propose a new single carrier - frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE) structure to cope with narrow band interference. In the conventional SC-FDE structure, when a high-power narrow band interference exists, channel estimation and data recovery is difficult. To relieve from this problem, this paper proposes a new SC-FDE frame structure to enable frequency-domain channel estimation in the environments that exist narrow band interference. Specifically, in the conventional method, the channel estimation is performed in time-domain first and from that, the frequency-domain channel is obtained by Fourier transform. In contrast, we proposed a new SC-FDE structure to enable frequency-domain channel estimation directly from received signals without time-domain channel estimation. The receiver performance improvement is verified through computer simulation. According to the results, the proposed technique can detect the signal with less than 2 dB loss compared with jammer-free environments, while the conventional method does not communicate with each other.

Currently, CMMB(China Mobile Multimedia Broadcasting) and the conventional analog TV broadcasting have transmitted by using UHF(Ultra High Frequency : 474MHz~754MHz) band. Normally, the transmission power of the digital TV broadcasting is lower than the conventional analog TV broadcasting to protect the reception quality of the conventional analog TV broadcasting. The reception sensitivity of CMMB receiver has severely deteriorated due to adjacent the conventional analog TV broadcasting signals which called ACI (Adjacent Channel Interference). To improve the reception sensitivity of a CMMB receiver on ACI environment, this paper proposed a simple method which is tuning a cut off frequency of LPF (Low Pass Filter). From the experiment, the reception sensitivity of CMMB receiver was improved as 11.3dB.

Analog medias are converting to digital with the development of the digital communications. The Korean radio broadcasting services yet on analog and the research for the digital radio is progressing. The digital conversion of radio broadcasting has already progressed in foreign countries because of the technical limitation of analog broadcasting(The radio-frequency efficiency is poor). DAB is one of the digital radio mode, it doesn't use on AM/FM band and uses on T-DMB frequency band. So, it has an advantage of being able to broadcast with the existing radio without interference at once. On the other hand, it has the potential to cause interference to existing T-DMB broadcasting. In this paper, we propose an efficient DAB channel allocation method for digital radio on T-DMB frequency band. This paper allocates the DAB channel without interference to existing T-DMB broadcasting and proves the proposed method through simulations for the interference analysis.

CDMA scheme has received a great deal of attenttion as a multiple-access method for future mobile networks. Its main advantage: are higher radio capacity and the capacity of flexible data tranmission. And CDMA scheme is a key technology in the proposals submitted to the ITU on next generation multimedia system with integrated services, namely real-time voice services and non real-time data services. In this paper, capacity evaluation of multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO) Multi-Carrier(MC)/CDMA system is considered to mitigate multiple access interference, partial-band interference and enhance system channel capacity in wireless channel. Recently, to increase the spectrum efficiency and the link reliability, MIMO-MC/CDMA scheme is devised to exploit multi-path in a scattering wireless channel. In particular, the channel capacity of MIMO-MC/CDMA system is evaluated according to Eb/No. Mc, p and B. From the results, in order to inappropriate spacing and the signals are frequency overlapped by partial band interference, the channel capacity of MIMO-MC/CDMA system becomes substantially smaller.

To improve the performance of D2D power control algorithm proposed in the previous work, three modified D2D power control algorithms are proposed to compensate the channel estimation error. Then, we evaluate the performance of three modified D2D power control algorithms in the channel estimation error environment. In real channel environment, the channel estimation is not perfect. To that end, the impact of imperfect channel estimation on the D2D power control algorithm, which was developed with the assumption of perfect channel estimation, has been analyzed in the previous work. Three modified D2D power control algorithms are based on 1) Retransmission, 2) SIR Margin, and 3) Retransmission and SIR Margin. Simulation results show that the Retransmission and SIR Margin approach shows best performance in the sense of the transmit power consumption and the latency.

In this paper, the performance of equalization-based on-channel repeater for terrestrial DMB is analyzed. A primary concern in on-channel repeater is the performance degradation due to the echo and one of key component for on-channel repeater is the echo canceller, which usually employs LMS algorithm utilizing the repeater output as a reference for echo channel estimation and compensation. One problem using LMS algorithm is the tracking capability and there necessarily exists residual echo that has not been cancelled. To effectivelyremove the residual echo, we consider an equalization based on-channel repeater where the echo-cancellor is followed by an equalizer that performs channel estimation using pilot symbol and the channel inversion utilizing homomorphic decomposition. According to the simulation result, the performance degradation caused by the residual echo can be considerably alleviated by using the equalizer following the echo-canceller.

In this paper, we propose a novel interference alignment transceiver for multi-cell MIMO downlink channels with arbitrary number of cells and users per cell. We design the receive beamformer to align the interference from undesired base stations to the effective inter-cell interference (ICI) channels. Subsequently, we design the transmit precoder which can nulllify the interference from the corresponding base station. The proposed transceiver design can attain the degrees of freedom (DOF) equal to the number of streams per user. Accordingly, we investigate conditions for the antenna configuration. From numerical results, we confirm that the proposed transceiver design can achieve higher DOF than the conventional scheme under equal antenna configuration.
