  • In this thesis, we develop and analyze the beamforming algorithm which has two constraints to combat the signal cancellations. Through the simulation results, it is shown that the proposed scheme is more efficient compared with the spatial averaging method for preventing signal cancellation and eliminating interfering signal.

  • Assuming omnidirectional antenna reception, the ITU-R recently developed a new propagation model on building entry loss (BEL) for 5G millimeter-wave frequency sharing and compatibility studies, which is a simplified outdoor-to-indoor path loss model. Considering the utilization of high-gain narrow-beamwidth beamforming, the omnidirectional-based ITU-R BEL model may not be appropriate to predict propagation characteristics for directional beamforming scenarios. This paper studies the effects of beamwidth on the ITU-R BEL model. This study is based on field measurements collected with four different beamwidth antennas: omnidirectional, 10° horn, 30° horn, and 60° horn. The measurement campaigns were conducted at two types of building sites: traditional and thermally efficient buildings. These sites, as well as the measurement scenarios, were carefully chosen to comply with the ITU-R BEL measurement guidelines and the ITU-R building types. We observed the importance of accurate beam alignment from the BEL variation range. We were able to quantify the beamwidth dependency by fitting to a model that is inversely proportional to the beamwidth.

  • This paper proposes a new beamforming algorithm to select beamforming gain or/and diversity gain in CDMA2000, W-CDMA, W-LAN channel according to signal environment on the multipath. In this paper, we present the criteria to obtain deversity gain at any point that based on quantized experimental value. Proposed method proposes represents a performance better than conventional algorithm adopting the largest two eigenvector when angle spread is exit. From the results of performance analysis through various simulation, it is confirmed that proposed method is far superior about $3{\sim}4$ times compare to conventional method in signal environment.

  • With the incitation to reduce power consumption and the aggressive reuse of spectral resources, there is an inevitable trend towards the deployment of small-cell networks by decomposing a traditional single-tier network into a multi-tier network with very high throughput per network area. However, this cell size reduction increases the complexity of network operation and the severity of cross-tier interference. In this paper, we consider a downlink two-tier network comprising of a multiple-antenna macrocell base station and a single femtocell access point, each serving multiples users with a single antenna. In this scenario, we treat the following beamforming optimization problems: i) Total transmit power minimization problem; ii) mean-square error balancing problem; and iii) interference power minimization problem. In the presence of perfect channel state information (CSI), we formulate the optimization algorithms in a centralized manner and determine the optimal beamformers using standard convex optimization techniques. In addition, we propose semi-decentralized algorithms to overcome the drawback of centralized design by introducing the signal-to-leakage plus noise ratio criteria. Taking into account imperfect CSI for both centralized and semi-decentralized approaches, we also propose robust algorithms tailored by the worst-case design to mitigate the effect of channel uncertainty. Finally, numerical results are presented to validate our proposed algorithms.

  • This paper presents a gradient ON-OFF algorithm of which the performance is very robust even when the angle spread increases in the mobile communication environments. The proposed method getting the diversity gain by utilizing the primary and secondary eigenvector, which corresponds to the largest and the second largest eigenvalue of the autocovariance matrix of the received signal vector, outperforms the method which just utilizes one eigenvector. By applying the proposed method to IS-2000 1X signal environments, it is observed that the proposed method shows excellent performance compared to a typical beamforming method using just one eigenvector, which considerably degrades the receiving performance as the angle spread increases.

  • Radar system must estimate exactly quickness and target in interference channel. Because interference of radio channel is multipath channel by artificial structure and nature structure. signal estimation is difficult. As long as, get rid of interference signal have been study digital beamforming, adaptive array antenna and so on. In this paper, proposed SPT-SALCMV beamforming algorithm get rid of coherent interference algorithm and adaptive array antenna. Adaptive array forms null pattern and reduces gains for direction of interference signal. And estimate signal that want by keeping gains of beam pattern changelessly to target signal direction. In this paper, proposed SPT-SALCMV algorithm was exactly received position of target. But general SPT-LCMV algorithm resulted beam error about 30degrees. Therefore, proved that SPT-SALCMV algerian that propose in this paper is more excellent than genaral SPT-LCMV algorithm.

  • A two-way relaying (TWR) system is analyzed, where two source terminals with unequal numbers of antennas exchange data via an amplify-and-forward relay terminal with a single antenna. In the system considered herein, the link quality between the sources and relay can generally be asymmetric due to the nonidentical antenna configuration, power allocation, and relay location. In such a general setup, accurate bounds on the average sum rate (ASR) are derived when beamforming or orthogonal space time block coding is employed at the sources. We show that the proposed bounds are almost indistinguishable from the exact ASR under various system configurations. It is also observed that the ASR performance of the TWR system with unequal numbers of source antennas is more sensitive to the relay location than to the power allocation.

  • In this paper. we consider an OFDM system with cochannel interference and the use of adaptive antenna arrays to suppress such interference. Based on the conventional RLS criterion, we derive a new Recursive Least Square (RLS) adaptive beamforming algorithm for antenna arrays applied in an OFDM system. Computer simulation shows that. when applied to the OFDM system. the proposed algorithm is capable of combating cochannel interference in both AWGN channel and multipath Rayleigh fading channel with AWGN.
