This paper presents the error performance of 16 star-QAM with diversity reception in microcell systems in the presence of additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) and cochannel interference. The differential detection of 16 star-QAM is split into phase detection and amplitude detection. This technique can reduce the degradation of error performance which is due to fading and the complexity of receiver. Diversity reception is proposed to improve the degradation of error performance due to fading. Equal gain and maximal ratio combinings were adopted for the phase detection and the amplitude detection, respectively. The performance of 16 star-QAM was evaluated for various of Rician factor K, maximum Doppler frequency f_DT, signal to cochannel interference ratio and diversity branch L.

This paper has been studied the design of 16-QAM demodulator used in broadband wireless local loop subscriber station. In B-WLL systems, transmission signal experience the inter symbol interference(ISI) due to multipath, frequency offset of RF/IF local oscillator and phase offset. In this paper, we discuss the effective data recovery algorithm for 16-QAM demodulator to compensate the distorted signal from ISI, frequency offset and phase offset.

In this paper, considering PAR of transmitter which is pointed out OFDM system's problem, we designed Coded OFDM (COFDM) system and estimated BER and SNR using PAR reduction method In order to evaluate performance, we compared M-ary PSK (M-ary Phase Shift Keying) with M-ary QAM (M-ary Quadrature Amplitude Modulation). In result, performance of 16-PSK and 16-QAM came to good Moreover, 16-QAM showed better performance of about 2 dB in 10-3 error probability and performance of about 5 dB in Peak power clipping than that of 16-PSK.

We have studied and discussed the error rate performance of Quadrature Amplitude Modulation(QAM) in an environment of cochannel QAM interference and impulsive noise. A general equation of error probability for L-level QAM signal has been derived and the error rate of the 16-QAM signal, as an example, has been calculated as functions of carrier-to-noise power ratio(CNR), carrier-to-interferer power ratio(CIR), impulsive indes, and the phase difference between signal and interferer.

In this paper, we analyzed the error rate performance of convolution coded 16 QAM signal with Optimum Threshold Detection with maximum ratio combining diversity in Rician Fading Environments. The performance of 16-QAM signal with CTD (conventional threshold detection) which employs convolution coding technique was analyzed and the performance improvement of convolution coded 16-QAM signal with OTD (optimum threshold detection) which is varied according to fading parameter "K" and AWGN in Rician Fading channel was simulated. As a result of analysis, it was shown the effect of performance improvement to overcome the environment of mobile radio data communication channel.

In this paper, the performance for the non-linear satellite channel including the characteristics of group delay and gain ripple of transponder is analyzed with multi-level QAM-OFDM schemes. Comparing the BER performances between general OFDM and CI(Carrier Interferometry)-OFDM for various QAM schemes, the degree of performance improvement is presented in AWGN environments for specified nonlinear characteristics. The simulations are performed with the 36MHz bandwidth of transponder channel and 120Mbps transmission rate for QPSK, 8QAM, 16QAM, 32QAM, 64QAM schemes between normal and worst case condition. It is shown that the improvement measure by the CI-OFDM for the group delay of channel and nonlinear characteristic of HPA outperforms that for the gain ripple in the case of higher level QAM scheme in normal condition. And the simulation results show that the additional techniques like the channel coding and compensation scheme against the nonlinear characteristic are required for 32QAM and higher level QAM in worst case condition.

We have been derived theoretically the SER's and CLP's of Wireless ATM (WATM) cells employing an OFDM/16QAM modulation scheme in wireless channel modeled as a frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. The amount of the performance improvement of WATM- OFDM/16QAM systems adopting various coding techniques has been evaluated. In frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel, considering CLP : $10^{-3}$ as a criterion, it is observed that the performance improvement of about 14 dB is obtained in terms of $E_b/N_o$ by employing an OFDM scheme. It is also confirmed that convolutional coding technique gives better performance than the other coding techniques. Especially, when the convolutional codes are adopted to WATM-OFDM/16QAM systems, voice transmission services are sufficiently available with 5 dB of $E_b/N_o$.

WiBro(Wireless Broadband Internet) is the standard of high-speed portable internet based on OFDMA/TDD (Orthogonal frequency division multiple access / Time division duplexing) techniques, and the subset of consolidated version of IEEE802.16e Wireless MAN standard. In this paper, we propose performance improvements of WiBro system using the 64QAM SOFM(Self-Organizing Feature Maps)prefiltering. Proposed method used the prefiltering SOFM neural network blind equalization in the Broadband 64 QAM WiBro system receiver. The prefiltering SOFM neural network constellates 64QAM that is transmitter data shape and the blind equalization removes ICI(Inter Carrier Interference). To verificate the proposed method usability, the MSE and the BER are simulated. The simulation results shown that is improved the performances of the proposed WiBro system using the 64QAM SOFM Prefiltering than the existing WiBro system.

In this paper, we design the nonoverlapping multicarrier modulation (MCM) system for high rate paging system and evaluate the Performance by computer simulation. In conventional paging system, FSK was usually used, but we select QAM for high bandwidth efficiency. Transmitter structure adopts that of 4-16QAM of the iDEN$\^$TM/ and receiver consists of symbol timing recovery, carrier recovery and automatic gain control. In addition, pilot symbol aided modulation (PSAM) which can overcome the simulcast fading channel is considered and we also propose the optimum pilot symbol pattern. Finally, we show the performance of the overall 4-16QAM system by computer simulation.
