We investigate the adaptive channel attenuation compensation of satellite OFDMA downlink users for minimum PAR (Peak to Average power Ratio), which is one of the main challenging issues in satellite OFDMA application. First, we analyze and compare PAR performances of two main different channel attenuation compensation schemes for OFDMA, i.e., PC-OFDMA (power control OFDMA) and AMC-OFDMA (Adaptive Modulation and Coding). While AMC-OFDMA maintains the constant transmission powers through entire user data subcarriers, PC-OFDMA has non-uniform subcarrier transmission powers because subcarrier powers are separately controlled to compensate each user's sub-channel attenuation. We newly found the fact that non-uniform subcarrier power in PC-OFDMA achieves rather reduced PAR compared to AMC-OFDMA and the amount of reduction becomes larger as the power differences among subcarriers increase. Also, there is an additional PAR reduction in PC-OFDMA by optimizing subcarrier grouping scheme for user's sub-channelization.

In Ad-hoc networks, centralized power control is not suitable due to the absence of base stations, which perform the power control operation in the network to optimize the system performance. Therefore, each node should perform power control algorithm distributedly instead of the centralized one. The conventional distributed power control algorithm does not consider the adaptive bit loading operation to change the MCS (modulation and coding scheme) according to the received SINR (signal to interference and noise ratio), which limits the system throughput. In this paper, we propose a novel distributed bit loading and power control algorithm, which considers the adaptive bit loading operation to increase total system throughput and decrease outage probability. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm performs much better than the conventional algorithm.

방송 및 통신망에서 방송 및 멀티캐스트 데이터를 효율적으로 전송하기 위해 적응변조 방식을 통해 그룹 내의 사용자 개개인의 요구 성능(QoS)을 보장해주는 기술이 고려되고 있으며, 이를 위해서는 피드백 부담을 낮출 수 있는 기술 개발이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 멀티캐스트 그룹 내 모든 사용자가 공유하는 1bit 피드백 채널을 사용하여 그룹 내 사용자수에 관계없이 2개 또는 3개의 1bit 피드백채널만을 사용하여 적응변조(Adaptive Modulation and Coding)동작을 하는 방법을 제안하였다. 또한 제안한 방법에 대한 시스템 레벨 모의실험을 수행하여, 사용자별로 피드백 채널을 사용하는 경우와 제안된 방식을 사용하는 경우의 전송 효율을 비교분석 하여 제안된 방식의 실용성을 보였다.

In High-speed Portable Internet system to improve performance of whole system, adaptive modulation and coding technology is used, this technology changes modulation and encoding techniques depending on wireless channel environment. Modulation technology that is used in High-speed Portable Internet system is BPSK, QPSK, 16QAMs and 64QAMs. If terminal is distant from base station transceiver system, BPSK or QPSK technology Is used and 16QAMs or 64QAM technology is used if is near in the base station transceiver system. In this paper, number of sub-channel in each modulation technology minimized total transmitting number of PDU is analyzed for efficient radio resources usage. For this, simulation is conducted and the results are presented at High-speed Portable Internet system environments.

In this paper, we propose a design of the layered coding with block turbo codes. The proposed scheme can be used efficiently for multimedia broadcasting and multicasting services by adaptive selection of a modulation and coding scheme at a receiver. This paper demonstrates various design examples of the layered coding using rate compatible block turbo codes.

In general, two way satellite communication systems based on TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) require network clock synchronization between hub station and remote terminals. This paper describes basic concepts for network clock synchronization based on NCR(Network Clock Reference) clock recovery scheme as suggested in DVB-S2/ RCS2 international standards. in addition, a new NCR insertion method has been proposed and evaluated in terms of supporting CCM mode as well as ACM mode which optimizes throughput by changing code rates and modulation types ranging from QPSK to 32-APSK.

This paper presents the mobile IPTV system for the transmission of FGS-encoded video stream over WiMAX network. The proposed system is implemented to provide more subscribers with an improved mobile IPTV service considering the scarce resource constraint. The proposed system pursues an efficient tradeoff between the number of subscribers that receive the enhancement layer stream and their IPTV service quality. In the proposed system, some parts of the enhancement layer are transmitted with the modulation scheme and the coding rate adaptive to wireless link states of subscribers. Finally, experimental results are provided to show the performance of proposed mobile IPTV system.

In this paper, we propose a fast adaptive power allocation method for an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) system that employs an adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) scheme. The proposed scheme aims to reduce the calculation complexity of greedy adaptive power allocation (APA), which is known as the optimal algorithm for maximizing the utility argument of power. Unlike greedy APA, which starts power allocation from "0", the proposed algorithm initially allocates a certain level of power determined by the water-filling scheme. We theoretically demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has almost the same capability of maximizing the utility argument as the greedy APA while reducing the number of operations by 2M, where M is the number of AMC levels.

In this paper, an adaptive cosine transform coding scheme which incorporate human visual properties into the coding scheme is investigated. Human vision is relatively sensitive to mid-frequency band, and insensitive to very low and very high frequency band. These property was mathematically modelled with MTF(Modulation Transfer Function) through many psychovisual experiment. DCT transforms energy in spatial domain into frequency domain, so can exploit the MTF very efficiently. Another well-known visual characteristics is spatial masking effect that visibility of noise is less in regions of high activity than in regions of low activity. Proposed coding scheme imploys quantization matrix which represent the properties of these spatial frequency response of human vision, and adaptively quality of an image. To compute the activity index of an image block, simple operation is performed in spatial domain, and according to activity index. block of low activity region is more exactly quantized relatively than that of high activity region. Results showed that, at low bit rate, the subjective quality of the reconstructed images by proposed coding scheme is acceptible than that of coding scheme without HVS properties.

Due to the increasing demand of network convergence, in future, hybrid/integrated satellite and terrestrial systems will play an important role. In that case, compatibilities between the satellite and terrestrial systems are very important for efficiency of the systems. 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) is one of the 4G system. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce the design of interleaver for mobile satellite system based 3GPP LTE specification. The 4G system including the LTE specification adopted adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) schemes for efficient usage of resources, and the updating interval of resource allocation is an order of msec. However, because of the long round trip delay of satellite systems, we cannot employ the same AMC scheme specified for the terrestrial system, and thus it cannot effectively counteract to short term fadings. Therefore, in order to overcome these problems, we propose an interleaver scheme combined with AMC. We present the interleaver design results considering mobile satellite system based on the LTE and analyze the simulation results.
