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 order to transmit high-speed wide band signals efficiently in multipath fading environments, M-ary QAM signalling combined with OFDM transmission technique is applied. In this paper, the effect of synchronization error caused by carrier frequency offset and SER(Symbol Error Rate) performance of OFDM-16QAM and OFDM-64QAM are theoretically analyzed. Our result shows that as the number of sub-carrier in OFDM system increases the frequency-offset caused inter-channel interference(ICI) increases significantly, and that an error floor occurs even at high SNR of OFDM system. For OFDM-64QAM, the error floor occurs at SER=1$\times$10-7 when a normalized frequency-offset is 0.001, in which the SNR degradation is much greater than that of OFDM-16QAM. From this study the maximum allowable frequency-offset of OFDM-16QAM and OFDM-64QAM systems can be determined to meet the specific SER requirement.

In this paper, we analyze the effect of phase noise from PLL frequency synthesizer on 64QAM when detecting the corrupted signals. To predict the phase noise of oscillator very accurately, we considered that oscillator has the linearly time-varying nature when the input impulsive torrent to oscillator is small. The performance which detects the corrupted signal by oscillator phase noise is compared with only affected by AWCN and then analyze how much it degrade system performance for 64QAM.

In recent wireless communication systems such as Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) system, to transmit large multimedia data, high order modulations including 64-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) are adopted. However, performance of the modulation depends on the signal constellation in the same modulation order. Therefore, a symbol error rate (SER) expression of optimal performance is necessary for analyzing the SER performance of various signal constellation. The optimal signal constellation based on error bound has been previously described, but an exact SER expression has not been derived. In this paper, we propose an exact SER expression of optimal signal constellation for 64-ary QAM.

In this paper, we consider hierarchical modulation (HM), which has been widely exploited in digital broadcasting systems. In HM, each independent data stream is mapped to the modulation symbol with different transmission power and normalization factors of conventional M-QAM cannot be used. In this paper, we derive the method and formula for exact normalization factor of three-level hierarchical 64QAM.

This paper presents the architecture and design of a high speed asymmetric data transmission baseband MODEM ASIC chip for CATV networks. The implemented MODEM chip supports the physical layer of the DOCSIS(Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification) standard in MCNS(Multimedia Cable Network System) The chip consists of a QPSK/16-QAM transmitter and a 64/256-QAM receiver which contain a symbol timing recovery circuit, a carrier recovery circuit, a blind equalizer using MMA and LMS algorithms. The chip can support data rates of 64Mbps at 256 QAM and 48Mbps at 64-QAM and can provide symbol rates up to 8MBaud. This symbol rate is faster than existing QAM receivers. We have performed logic synthesis using the $0.35\mu\textrm{m}$ standard cell library. The total number of gates is about 290,000 and the implemented chip is being fabricated and will be delivered soon.

In this paper, the system performace with the convolution rode using a Viterbi decoding and the one tap LMS(Least Meam Square) equalizer applied to the OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system, is analyzed through computer simulation. DMRS(Digital Microwave Radio System)is modeled as Rummler fading channel. In Simulation result, we known that the coding system improved about 3.6dB~10.5dB when BER is 10 $^3$and b is 0.1~0.2 in case of 16QAM(Qurdrature Amplitude Modulation). Also, we known that was improved about 19.7dB when the b is 0.1 and was demanded about 10.5dB when the b is 0.2 in case of 64QAM. we known that the soft decision improved about 2~0.9dB when the b is 0.1~0.2 in case of 16QAM and about 3.3~7.8dB in case of 64QAM. In the equalizer system, efficiency improved from the case of that Eb/No is more than 13dB.

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.

In this paper, we propose a signal generation method of rectangular QAM for rotationally invariant I/Q TCM. The proposed method consists of only digital logic gates without look-up table so that we can implement the system compactly. Our scheme can be applied to every rectangular QAM with the level higher than 64.

In this paper, the performance of OFDM/64QAM systems under Rummler model based cable channel is evaluated through computer simulation, and then the degree of performance improvement is estimated when adopting adaptive LMS equalizer. From the performance evaluation results, in the Rummler two-ray channel model, it is known that the performance improvement degree by adopting equalizer is greatly increased in case of attenuation coefficient of reflected ray (b) being less than 0.15, but when attenuation coeffcient (b) is larger than 0.15, the performance improvement degree by adopting equalizer shows little changes in almost all range of Eb/No.
