기존 ATSC 시스템의 시간영역 채널 추정은 많은 탭을 사용하고 복잡도가 높지만 OFDM과 같이 보호구간을 이용하여 주파수 영역 등화기를 사용하면 복잡도를 낮추면서 정확한 채널 보상이 가능하다. 본 논문은 ATSC 시스템의 프레임에 보호구간을 삽입하여 주파수 영역 채널 등화를 제안하였다. 또한 DTV수신기의 성능을 확인하기 위해 브라질 채널을 이용하여 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통해 성능을 확인하였다.

필터뱅크를 기반으로 하는 이산 웨이브렛 멀티톤(DWMT) 데이터 전송 시스템은 전송 채널의 영향으로 발생하는 심벌간 및 부채널간의 간섭 잡음에 민감하다. 본 논문에서 제안한 시간 영역 등화기(TEQ)는 전송 채널 응답의 길이를 단축시키는 TEQ-S와 전송 채널의 주파수 특성을 향상시키는 TEQ-C등 2단계로 이루어져 있다. 제안한 시간영역 등화기(TEQ)를 DWMT 데이터 전송 시스템에 적용하면 많은 간섭 성분을 감소시킬 수 있어 하드웨어적으로 보다 간단한 FEQ로도 잔여 간섭 잡음을 효과적으로 제거할 수 있다.

광대역 무선 통신 시스템에서는 주파수 선택적 다중경로 페이딩 채널상에서 발생하는 인접 심볼간의 간섭에 의한 성능 열화를 극복하기 위해서 채널 등화 기술의 도입이 필연적이다. 그러나, 데이터 전송률이 증가함에 따라 채널 등화에 필요한 훈련열의 길이가 늘어나고, 이로 인한 오버헤드를 감소하기 위해서는 보다 수렴률이 높은 적응 알고리즘이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 주파수 영역의 적응 여파 기법 중의 하나인 자기 직교환 방식의 결정궤환 등화기를 고려한다. 이 채널 등화기에서는 적응 알고리즘으로 DCT-LMS (discrete cosine transform least mean square) 알고리즘을 채택함으로써 수렴률과 MSE (mean square error) 성능을 향상시켜 결과적으로 광대역 무선통신에서 요구되는 훈련열에 따른 오버헤드를 감소시킬 수 있게 된다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 주파수 선택적 다중경로 페이딩 채널에서의 제안된 채널 등화 기법에 대한 성능을 분석한다.

In this paper, we propose a noise whitening decision feedback equalizer for single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) receivers. SC-FDMA has the same advantage as that of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) in which the multipath effect can be removed easily, and also solves the problem of high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) which is the main drawback of OFDMA. Although SC-FDMA is a single carrier transmission scheme, a simple frequency domain linear equalizer (FD-LE) can be implemented as in OFDMA, which can dramatically reduce the equalizer complexity. Moreover, some residual intersymbol interference in the output of the FD-LE can be further removed by an additional nonlinear decision feedback equalizer (DFE) in time domain, because the time domain signal is a digitally modulated symbol. In the conventional DFE, however, the noise is not white at the input of the decision device and correspondingly the decision is not optimum. In this paper, we propose an improved DFE scheme for SC-FDMA systems where a linear noise whitening filter is inserted before the decision device of the conventional DFE scheme. Through computer simulations, we compare the bit error rate performance of the proposed DFE scheme with the conventional equalizers.

In this paper, as one of countermeasure techniques for a frequency selective fading, an adaptive analog slope equalizer(ASE) applicable to 64-QAM digital radio relay system is presented in terms of principle, implementation, and its performance. Also interference of cross-talk between I- and Q-channel caused by a fiequency selective lading has been analyzed by doing channel model in the baseband, which make it possible to derive the solution for implementing ASE in If-band. The effects of signal for the faded channel are investigated in the time and the frequency domains, respectively, with/without ASE. As system performance, it is shown that the signature is improved up to 6.2 dB at the edge of signal bandwidth for a given BER 10$\^$-3/.

Frequency domain equalization is the most promising technology that has relatively low complexity in multipath channel. A frame of single carrier system with frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE) has cyclic prefix to mitigate effect of delay spread. After synchronization and equalization procedure on the SC-FDE system, common phase offset (CPO) that can introduce performance degradation caused by phase mismatch between transmitter and receiver oscillators is remained. In this paper, common phase offset tracking in frequency domain is proposed. To track CPO, constant amplitude zero autocorrelation code sequence as training sequence is adopted. By using numerical results, performance of mean square error is evaluated. The results show that MSE of CPO has similar performance compare to the time-domain estimation and there is no need of domain conversion.

In the multipath fading channel, OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)system possess the characteristics of ISI/ICIwith prefix, but a weak point of circuit complexity and PAPR problem. SC-FDE(Single Carrier with Frequency Domain Equalization) performance is similar to OFDM system, but equalizer is complex in frequency domain. In this paper, simple proportional equalizer offer for SC-FDE system, it useful method in the $2GHz{\sim}\;10GHz$ channel model such as indoor, outdoor, SUI. It prove using MATLAB simulation, speed faster then OFDM system, reduce terminal complexity in same test condition.

In [1], it has been shown that the energy spreading transform (EST) based iterative equalizer (IE) could enhance its performance by improving the reliability of the decision feedback symbols without the help of the complicated channel decoder. In the matched filter (MF) based IE proposed in [1], however, its feedforward filter (FFF) has been designed in the frequency domain while its feedback filter (FBF) in the time domain. So its complexity increases proportional to the channel memory length. To solve this problem, in this paper, both FFF and FBF are designed in the frequency domain. This enables the proposed frequency domain IE (FD-IE) to achieve the lower complexity over the conventional method in the highly dispersive channel. In addition, simulation results demonstrate that the BER performance of the proposed method is the same as the conventional.

In this paper, as one of countermeasure techniques for a frequency selective fading, a digital slope equalizer(DSE) for 64-QAM digital radio relay system is analyzed in terms of principle, channel modeling, and digital implementation. Also computer simulations have been performed for DSE with a complex 13-tap adaptive time domain equalizer chip. It is shown that about 4.5 dB improvement in system signature can be obtained at the channel edge, and a variety of simulated results are reviewed in view of DSE modeling limit, operating frequency, control coefficient, signal constellation, and system signature. Finally, the functions of DSE chip confirmed up to 61 MHz clock operation are illustrated.

We need to establish standard for the ICT based on train control system. In order to solve the ISI problem, this paper evaluate the performance of OFDM and FDE system. We seem that OFDM system is better than FDE system. In order to solve ISI problem, SC System is needed a equalizer. And another method is OFDM System. If system is used SC with a equalizer, It is better than OFDM in terms of PAPR, but this system is not easy to use Multi-Antenna technique, i.e., beam-forming and MIMO-multiplexing. And If system is used high-order modulation, BER performance is worse than OFDM. If we think about in terms of PAPR problem, considerations are considered not significant because the size of relays is not considered in the communication between trains and ground.
