  • Recently wireless intra-vehicle communication has received a great interest from the automotive industry and ultra wideband (UWB) technology is considered as one of the potential candidate for this system. Many research works have been done on the measurement and modeling of intra-vehicle communication channel. However, very little work has been reported for the performance analysis of various PHY layer methods under the intra-vehicle communication environment. This paper is to study IEEE 802.15.4a standard in intra-vehicle channel and to evaluate its performance. Channel model in chassis and engine compartment is considered for evaluation. Through simulation BER performance of system with different receiver structures is analyzed.

  • The objective of this paper is to present an adaptive algorithm for computing the weight vector which provides a beam pattern having its maximum gain along the direction of the mobile target signal source in the presence of interfering signals within a cell. The conjugate gradient method (CGM) is modified in such a way that the suboptimal weight vector is produced with the computational load of O(16N), which has been found to be small enough for the real-time processing of signals in most land mobile communications with the digital signal processor (DSP) off the shelf, where N denotes the number of antenna elements of the array. The adaptive procedure proposed in this paper is applied to code division multiple access (CDMA) mobile communication system to show its excellent performance in terms of signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), bit error rate (BER), and capacity, which are enhanced by about 7 dB, ${\frac{1}{100}}$ times, and 7 times, respectively, when the number of antenna elements is 6 and the processing gain is 20 dB.

  • In this paper, we propose a method using cooperative spectrum sensing to avoid multipath and frequency selective fading. One of methods in conventional scheme was multi input multi output (MIMO) solution. However, in the wireless environment, mobile device hardly supports multi antenna because of limitation of hardware. Motivated from above problems, the proposed method provides the information of excellent channel to transmitter. As a result, quality of service (QoS) required by users can be satisfied. Finally, performance of the proposed protocol is analyzed in term of bit error rate (BER).

  • Channel attenuation must be taken into account when designing Time Division Multiple Access(TDMA) communication systems. In addition, Automatic Gain Control (ACG) is a requirement in satellite communication systems in order to form a stable network regardless of rapidly changes in channel environment. In this study, we present an AGC with possible real-time application to time slots in satellite TDMA communication systems. A satellite TDMA system was designed and implemented in order to test the performance of the proposed real-time AGC, and the system's BER (Bit Error Rate) was found by applying the proposed AGC algorithm. These results can be expected to be of high value in improving the stability of satellite TDMA communication systems in the future.

  • In multi-user multi-input multi-output (MU-MIMO) system, zero forcing beamforming (ZFB) is regarded as a realistic solution for transmitting scheme due to its low complexity and simple structure. However, ZFB shows a significant performance degradation when channel matrix has large condition number. In this case, the largest singular value of the channel inversion matrix has a dominant effect on transmit power. In this paper, we propose a perturbation method for reducing an effect of the dominant singular value. In the proposed algorithm, channel inverse matrix is first decomposed by SVD for the transmit signal to be expressed as a combination of singular vectors. Then, the transmit signal is perturbed to reduce the coefficient of the singular vector corresponding to the largest singular value. When a number of transmit antennas is 4, the simulation results of this paper shows that the proposed method shows 8dB performance enhancement at 10-3 uncoded bit error rate (BER) compared with conventional ZFB. Also, the simulation results show that the proposed method provides a comparable performance to Tomlinson-Harashima Precoding (THP) with much lower complexity.

  • In multi-path wireless channels with time-variant delay profile, a mobile station measures the received signal strength and report it to network which performs network control function such as handover. In order to improve the maximum ratio combining (MRC) gain, it also should search the strongest signal paths and measure their time offsets fast and exactly. This paper proposes some methods of fast and exactly measuring the multi-path signal strength and time offset. Since the W-CDMA system adopts antenna diversity technique for the next generation high speed packet access (HSDPA) service, we derive the optimum design parameter values for the proposed methods through computer simulations under the HSDPA conditions o( low speed of mobile, of no power control, and of multi-path wireless environment with transmit and receive antenna diversity. Finally, we prove the validity of the proposed methods by showing the improvement of the bit error rate (BER) performance.

  • The objective of this paper is to proposed a new Hybrid Interference Cancellation(HlC) receiver to cancel MAI in a multirate DS-CDMA system based on multiple processing gain(MPG). We propose a new improved HIC scheme that divides the active users with different data rates split into a number of groups for effectives cancellation Between each group, GW-PIC is performed to cancel other group signals and within them, SIC is carried out to remove multiple access interference in group. We analyze the performance of the proposed receiver in terms of the bit error rate(BER) and examine its performance. As a conclusion, computer simulations show that the proposed schemes outperforms adaptive multistage PIC and conventional SIC receiver over AWGN channel.

  • In this paper, we present a performance analysis of the smart antenna test-bed operating in a IS2000 1x through a test-bed that has been implemented on a DSP(TMS320C6711) board. The test-bed consists of a PC (for generating the RX data), beam-former(i.e., a stand-alone PCB for weight computation), and an interfacing module. The performance improvements compared to a normal base station system consisting of a single antenna are shown in terms the BER(bit error rate) in the wide-band CDMA channel.

  • Visible light communications (VLC) using the intensity modulation of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) provides a new communication medium to overcome the shortage of radio spectrum, and allows reuse of LED lighting infrastructures. Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) was introduced to VLC for its merits in mitigating the fading effects resulting from delay spread, and in avoiding low-frequency ambient interference. Noise and clipping are two major factors that degrade the performance of OFDM in VLC. A larger signal easily overcomes noise, but experiences impairment by clipping. Therefore, degradation due to clipping has a trade-off relationship with that due to noise, depending on the signal amplitude of OFDM. In this paper, the optimal signal amplitude in the trade-off is obtained by simulation when the dimming and LED intensity are given. The former indicates a user's requirement for lighting, and the latter represents the channel quality. The required LED intensity-to-noise ratio, as the channel quality that guarantees dimming as well as an adequate bit-error rate (BER), is also discussed.

  • Assuming perfect channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter and receiver, the optimization problem of maximizing the minimum Euclidean distance between two received signals by a linear precoder is considered for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with arbitrary dimensions and arbitraryary quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) input. A general precoding framework is first presented based on the Gram matrix, which is shown for 2-dimensional (2-D) and 3-dimensional (3-D) MIMO systems when employing the ellipse expanding method (EEM). An extended precoder for high-dimensional MIMO system is proposed following the precoding framework, where the Gram matrix for high-dimensional precoding matrix can be generated through those chosen from 2-D and 3-D results in association with a permutation matrix. A complexity-reduced maximum likelihood detector is also obtained according to the special structure of the proposed precoder. The analytical and numerical results indicate that the proposed precoder outperforms the other precoding schemes in terms of both minimum distance and bit error rate (BER).
