1-Dimensional Cluster-Based Sequence Equalizer(1-D CBSE) lessens computational load, compared with the classic maximum likelihood sequence estimation(MLSE) equalizers, and has the superiority in the nonlinear channels. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm of searching for optimal training sequence that estimates the cluster centers instead of time-varying multipath fading channel estimation. The proposed equalizer not only resolved the problems in 1-D CBSE but also improved the bandwidth efficiency using the shorten length of taming sequence to improve bandwidth efficiency. In experiments, the superiority of the new method is demonstrated by comparing conventional 1-D CBSE and related analysis.

본 논문에서는 단일 반송파 MIMO 시스템 기반의 PN 시퀀스를 이용한 반송파 주파수 오차 추정 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 송신되는 각각의 PN 시퀀스들의 위상을 회전시켜 전송하여, 일부 PN 시퀀스들이 서로 상쇄되어 버리는 것을 방지한다. 수신한 PN 시퀀스와 수신기에서 자체 생성한 PN 시퀀스의 공액곱셈 연산을 통해 변조를 제거한 뒤, 다수의 자기 상관기를 이용한 ML 알고리듬 계열의 L&R[3]을 이용하여 반송파 주파수 오차를 추정한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통해, 송신 및 수신 안테나가 두 개인 $2{\times}2$ MIMO 시스템에 제안하는 기법을 적용하고 L&R 알고리듬을 이용하여 AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise) 채널에서의 분산 성능을 측정하였다. 그 결과 MIMO 시스템에서의 분산 성능이 SISO 시스템에서의 성능과거의 동일함을 보였다.

In this paper, we consider an efficient design of quantizers at sensor nodes for sequence-based localization (SBL) systems which recently show a competitive performance for in-door positioning, Since SBL systems locate targets by partitioning the sensor field into subregions, each with an unique sequence number, we use the distance samples between sensors and the sequences for quantizer design in order to propose a low weight design process. Furthermore, we present a new cost function devised to assign the number of samples and the number of unique sequences uniformly into each of quantization partitions and design quantizers by searching the quantization partitions and codewords that minimize the cost function. We finally conduct experiments to demonstrate that the proposed algorithm offers an outstanding localization performance over typical designs while maintaining a substantial reduction of design complexity.

In this paper a sequence estimator of CDMA communication system is suggested. A sequence estimator uses Galois Field operation. A sequence estimator can provide another CDMA pilot signal which is un-modulated spreaded signal. A estimated sequence signal and received signal have no correlation. Tow signals can be summed using MRC(maximal ratio combine) method. The stronger signal can be added as a larger ratio, but the weaker signal can be added as a smaller ratio. We can distinguish strong signal using SNR estimator. Therefore it is possible to receive an additional pilot signal, and to support more reliable communications by using sequence estimator.

다중 반송파 변조의 일종인 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 방식은 기존의 주파수 분할 다중화 기법에 각 부 채널들 사이의 직교성까지 보장함으로써 사용 주파수 효율을 극대화시킬 수 있는 방식이다. 그러나 주파수 비 선택적 다중경로 채널에서 높은 데이터 율을 갖는 OFDM 신호의 전송은 주파수 영역에서 인접 심벌간 간섭과 동일한 형태를 갖는 승산성 왜곡에 의해 영향을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 결정 궤환 시퀀스 등화기를 OFDM 시스템에 적용하여 신호를 등화하고, 등화를 통하여 주파수 영역에서의 인접 심벌간 간섭을 보상하는 방법을 제안한다. 결정 궤환 시퀀스 등화를 이용하여 최우 시퀀스 등화가 갖는 복잡도를 크게 줄이면서 주파수 오프셋이 추정될 수 있음을 설명하고 모의 실험을 통해 OFDM 시스템의 성능 개선을 보인다.

The synchronization of OFDM receiver is consisted of symbol timing offset(STO) estimation in time domain and carrier frequency offset(CFO) estimation in frequency domain. This paper proposes new algorithm for correcting the integer CFO after we have done correcting the STO and partial CFO. ICFO must be corrected, since the ICFO lead to degrade bit error rate(BER) of demodulation performance. The PN sequence has information which is subcarrier order since the modified PN sequence, length is same subcarrier, is used in this paper and is modulated each subcarrier by each chip. Thus the receiver track phase of PN sequence after FFTin order to find the subcarrier frequency offset. The proposed algorithm is faster and more simple than convenient methode as measuring carrier energy.

본 논문에서는 빠르게 변화하는 이동 무선 채널 환경에서 심각한 성능 저하를 일으키는 인접 심볼 간섭(Inter-symbol interference: ISI)에 대처하기 위해 MLSE(Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimztion) 등화기의 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 기존의 MLSE 등화기는 비터비 알고리즘으로 어느 정도 계산량을 감소시켰지만, 정확한 채널 임펄스 응답을 필요로 하기 때문에, 시변 채널에서의 복잡한 채널 추정이 그 문제점으로 남아 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서, 간단하고 향상된 칼만 필터 기반의 채널 추정기를 새롭게 제안하여 MLSE의 복잡성을 줄였다. 또한, 복잡한 채널 추정을 대신하여 페이딩 채널을 거쳐 수신된 데이터를 클러스터로 매핑하여 클러스터 중심 추정을 이용한 1-D CBSE(1-Dimensional Clustering-based Sequence Equalizer) 알고리즘에, 최소 길이를 지닌 훈련 시퀀스를 제안하여 개선된 1-D CBSE을 이용한 MLSE 등화 성능을 보여주었다.

This paper presents a new method for channel impulse response measurment with a suitably designed binary sounding sequence. This method results in ideal channel estimation using three correlators instead of one. This system complexity can be easily overcome by the present technologies. The class of sounding sequences used in this method are the training sequence for channel impulse response measurment with the zero values of autocorrelation function at all shifts except zero and middle shifts in digital cellular mobile telephone system based on GSM. Computer searches are carried out to find the suitable sounding sequences.

Purpose : Localization using MRI is difficult due to susceptibility induced artifacts caused by metal electrodes. Here we took an advantage of the B0 pattern induced by the metal electrodes by using an oblique-view imaging method. Materials and Methods : Metal electrode models with various diameters and susceptibilities were simulated to understand the aspect of field distortion. We set localization criteria for a turbo spin-echo (TSE) sequence usingconventional ($90^{\circ}$ view) and $45^{\circ}$ oblique-view imaging method through simulation of images with various resolutions and validated the criteria usingphantom images acquired by a 3.0T clinical MRI system. For a gradient-refocused echo (GRE) sequence, which is relatively more sensitive to field inhomogeneity, we used phase images to find the center of electrode. Results : There was least field inhomogeneity along the $45^{\circ}$ line that penetrated the center of the electrode. Therefore, our criteria for the TSE sequence with $45^{\circ}$ oblique-view was coincided regardless of susceptibility. And with $45^{\circ}$ oblique-view angle images, pixel shifts were bidirectional so we can detect the location of electrodes even in low resolution. For the GRE sequence, the $45^{\circ}$ oblique-view anglemethod madethe lines where field polarity changes become coincident to the Cartesian grid so the localization of the center coordinates was more facilitated. Conclusion : We suggested the method for accurate localization of electrode using $45^{\circ}$ oblique-view angle imaging. It is expected to be a novelmethodto monitoring an electrophysiological brain study and brain neurosurgery.

In this paper, an uplink pilot signal structure is proposed for millimeter wave(mmWave)-based mobile wireless backhaul. For the transmit diversity of two antenna ports, uplink pilot signals generated from the Zadoff-Chu sequence can be mapped in an interleaved mode or continuous mode on the frequency axis, and channel estimation algorithms are different depending on the pilot signal mapping schemes. Through a simulation under Rayleigh fading channel assuming a subway scenario, the interleaved mapping scheme showed no performance degradation compared to the continuous mapping scheme and the implementation complexity of the uplink channel estimator was reduced due to the interleaved mapping scheme.
