AT-DMB system has been developed to increase data rate up to double of conventional T-DMB in same bandwidth while maintaining backward compatibility. The AT-DMB system adopted hierarchical modulation which adds BPSK signal or QPSK signal as enhanced layer to existing DQPSK signal. The enhanced layer signal should be small enough to maintain backward compatibility and to minimize the coverage loss of existing T-DMB service area. But this causes the enhanced layer signal of AT-DMB susceptible to fading effect in transmission channel. A turbo code which has powerful error correction capability is applied to the enhanced layer signal of the AT-DMB system for compensating channel distortion. We developed the prototype AT-DMB transmitter and receiver systems for performance evaluation. LAB test for analysing the effect of constellation ratio between existing base layer signal and enhancement layer signal, was conducted and the measurement results are shown with analysis comments.

In this paper, symbol error probability (SEP) of typical 3-dimensional (3-D) signal constellations in Rayleigh fading channel is derived. Simulation confirms that average SEP of the constellations is very accurate. Thus, the theoretical SEP derived can be exploited as a performance reference for future development of wireless communication systems with 3-D constellations.

For effective updating a blind equalizer, we propose the adaptive algorithm having faster convergence speed required for initial equalization and satisfying low error level required in steady-state while having a gradual and reversible switching characteristics between initial stage and steady-state. The proposed method presents three criteria to distinguish the state of equalized signal, according to the criteria, differently updates the equalizer by using the hybrid error generation algorithm generating one of the three errors. Wherein as the criteria to determine the state of the equalized signal the confidence intervals on the signal constellation are used, an error is generated alternatively according to the confidence interval where equalizer output lies, and the equalizer is updated by, we got convergence quickly and to lower error level. In order to verify the usefulness of the proposed idea, simulation results were compared to the performance of conventional methods.

이 논문에서는 MPEG-4 SVC 신호를 DVB-S2 전송시스템에 적용하여 Ka대역 위성방송서비스를 제공하는 전송방안에 대한 연구를 하였다. SVC신호는 계층 수를 2개로 제한하였으며, 이러한 다계층 신호를 DVB-S2 전송시스템에 적용하기 위하여, 성상도상에서 각 계층의 신호를 동기적으로 합치는 Hierarchical 변조방식과 각 계층의 전송스트림을 RF 주파수 상에서 비동기적으로 합치는 방식인 Layered 변조방식을 사용하였다. 각 전송방안에서 변조방식과 채널 부호율을 결합 소스/채널 부호화 방안에 따라 변화시켜 최적의 전송기법을 도출하였다.

This paper proposes the signal design techniques of quasi-orthogonal space time block codes (QO-STBCS) on the multi-dimensional signal space. In the multiple antenna system(MIMO), QO-STBC achieves the full-diversity and full-rate by grouping two based-symbols. We study the condition for the full-diversity of the grouping QO-STBC geometrically and the performance analysis of codes on the multi-dimensional signal space regarding the various signal constellations. Simulation results show that the way of the performance analysis is validity.

본 논문에서는 MEMS 기술에 의해 제작된 마이크로 가속도계를 위한 신호 검출 및 처리회로를 설계 제작하였으며, 레이트 테이블을 이용한 실험을 통해 제작된 센서 및 신호처리회로의 성능을 시험하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 가속도계는 입력 가속도에 따라 용량이 변하는 방식으로, 두개의 김블 구조를 가지므로 타축 입력 가속도의 영향을 적게 받는 장점이 있다. 또한 감지전극의 효과적 배치를 통해 감도가 커지도록 설계되었다. 신호검출 및 처리는 여기 신호를 이용한 차분검출방식을 이용하였다. 이 방식은 구성이 복잡한 단점이 있으나, 잡음 신호와 검출 신호를 주파수 영역에서 분리시킬 수 있으며, 기생용량의 영향을 감소시키고 전기적 감도를 증가시키는 장점이 있다. 실험을 통해 제시한 신호검출 및 처리방식을 이용할 경우 가속도계의 성능이 향상되는 것을 확인하였다.

This paper related with the CR-MMA which is possible to improving the equalization performance by applying the concept of constellation reduction in the MMA adaptive equalization alogorithm in order to reduce the intersymbol interference that is occurred in the nonlinear communication channel. In the updating process of MMA adaptive equalizer, the error signal is being obtained by using the equalizer output, and the performance will be degraded by the increase the error signal in the high order QAM constellation. But by using the constellation reduction, the high order QAM signal will be changed to the 4-QAM signal constellation and then the error signal will be obtained. By doing so, the error signal will be minimized and it is possible to improve the equalization performance in the high order QAM transmitted signal. The Computer simulation was performed in order to compare the performance of the proposed CR-MMA algorithm and original MMA algorithm in the same communication channel and noise environment. For this, the recoverd signal constellation which is the output of equalizer, residual isi and MD (Maximum Distortion) learning curve which is represents the convergence performance and SER which is represents the roburstness of noise were used. As a result of simulation, the CR-MMA has more superior to the MMA. And it was confirmed that the CR-MMA has roburstness to the noise in the SER performance.

This paper related with the performance comparison of CCA and RMMA blind adaptive equalization in order to reduce the intersymbol interference which is occurred in channel when transmitting the 16-QAM signal, high spectrum efficiencies of nonconstant modulus characteristic. The CCA possible to improve the misadustment and initial convergence by compacting the every signal constellation of 16 by using the sliced symbol of the decision device output, namely statistical symbol, but incresing the computational cost. The RMMA possible to minimize the fast convergence speed and misadjustment and channel tracking capability without increasing the computational cost by obtain the error signal after transform to 4 constant modulus signal based on the region of signal constellation located. In this paper, these algorithm were implemented in the same channel, and the blind adaptive equalization performance were compared using the equalizer output signal constellation, residual isi, MSE, SER. As a result of simulation, the RMMA has better performance in output signal constellation, residual isi and MSE compared to the CCA, but has slow convergence speed about 1.3 times. And the SER performance presenting the robustness to the noise signal, the CCA has more beeter in less SNR, but the RMMA has better in greater than 6dB in SNR.

In this paper, we studied hierarchical channel coding scheme using unequal error protection method fur consecutively broadcastingservice under the rain attenuation of Ka band satellite broadcasting. Unlike time-sharing methods, which are design for different channel coding scheme in according to different modulation, unequal error protection method is made in such way that minimum distance between signals are different for importance of signals with same modulation. Consequently we proposed optimal method according to performance analysis.
