추정된 채널 정보를 바탕으로 적용하는 적응형 비트 로딩 방식은, 전력선 통신 시스템의 고속화 및 대용량 데이터 전송을 위해 최근 대두되고 있는 LDPC(Low Density Parity Check) coded OFDM 시스템에 대해, 한정된 주파수 대역과 신호 전력의 효율적 사용을 제공한다. 그러나 적응형 비트로딩 방식은 한정된 수의 일정 SNR(신호대 잡음 전력비) 구간에 대한 mapping 방식으로 적용되기 때문에 송수신 과정에서 추정된 채널 정보를 이용하는 sum-product 복호기가 채널 변화에 민감하게 반응하지 못하는 상황이 발생하며, 결국 송신단에서 채널 추정 결과를 바탕으로 선택된 SNR 범위에 대해서는 실제 수신되는 신호에 대한 SNR과의 차이가 존재하고 시스템의 성능은 그 만큼의 성능 열하로 나타나게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 성능 열하 정도를 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다.

An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with coded direct index modulation(OFDM-CDIM) system that can achieve higher performance and spectral efficiency than previous OFDM systems is proposed. Previous OFDM with index modulation(IM) and OFDM-IM using dual modes systems allocate additional data to indices of respective subcarriers through combining operation with high complexity and then transmit them. However, the proposed system directly allocates the mode selection information to each subcarrier without performing additional operations. Then, the system selects and transmits one symbol in the selected mode. Furthermore, only the data allocated to the index of the subcarrier is encoded, and a good performance improvement effect is obtained with a high code rate. Simulation results show quantitatively that an OFDM-CDIM system using four modes improves bit error rate performance and transmission efficiency in additive white Gaussian noise and Rayleigh fading channel environments compared with a conventional OFDM system using 4-ary quadrature amplitude modulation.

We propose a cancellation algorithm based on Alamouti coded OFDM to mitigate ICI due to Frequency Offset (FO) between distributed antennas in the frequency selective fading channel. In the cancellation algorithm, the interference signal is estimated by using the initial detection symbol and then the estimated interference signal is subtracted from the received signal. As the accuracy of initial symbol increases, ICI cancellation becomes more significant. Therefore, the accuracy of the initial detection symbols is very important in the cancellation algorithm. The proposed scheme improves the accuracy of the initial detection symbol by employing an ICI self-cancellation scheme. The proposed cancellation scheme with only one iteration achieves better performance compared to the conventional cancellation schemes with many times iterations based on the conventional Alamouti coded OFDM.

In this paper, a trellis-coded 3-dimensional (3-D) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system is presented and its performance is analyzed. Here, a set-partitioning technique for trellis coding with respect to a 3-D signal constellation is also presented. We show theoretically that the proposed system, which exploits a trellis coding scheme with recursive systematic convolutional codes (RSC) of code rate R = 1/3 and 2/3, can improve symbol error rate (SER) up to 7.8 dB as compared with the uncoded OFDM system in an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. Computer simulation confirms that the theoretical analysis of the proposed system is very accurate. It is, therefore, considered that the proposed trellis-coded 3-D OFDM system is well suited for the high quality digital transmission system without increase in the available bandwidth.

When adapting the transmitter to the channel state information(CSI), improved transmission is possible compared to the open loop system where no CSI is provided at the transmitter. However, since the perfect channel information is rarely available at the transmitter, the system design based on the partial CSI becomes an important factor. Especially, in mobile environments, the consideration for the outdated CSI should be applied for mitigating the performance degradation. In this paper, we propose a robust adaptive modulation and coding scheme for bit-interleaved coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing over time-varying channels. With reasonable feedback overhead, the proposed scheme shows the enhanced performance by compensating for the outdated CSI due to Doppler spread. Simulation results confirm that the performance gain is achieved by applying an accurate BER estimation method.

The wireless communication based on LDPC and adaptive spatial-subcarrier coded modulation using MQAM for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) wireless transmission by using instantaneous channel state information and employing multiple antennas at both the transmitter and the receiver. Adaptive coded modulation is a promising idea for bandwidth-efficient transmission on time-varying, narrowband wireless channels. On power limited Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channels, low density parity check (LDPC) codes are a class of error control codes which have demonstrated impressive error correcting qualities, under some conditions performing even better than turbo codes. The paper demonstrates OFDM with LDPC and adaptive modulation applied to Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system. An optimization algorithm to obtain a bit and power allocation for each subcarrier assuming instantaneous channel knowledge is used. The experimental results are shown the potential of our proposed system.

In this work, a novel optimal multiuser detection (MUD) approach, which not only achieves the optimal maximum-likelihood (ML)-like performance but also has reasonably low computational complexity, for Space-time coded OFDM (ST-OFDM) systems is presented. In the proposed detection scheme, the signal model is firstly re-expressed into linearly equivalent one. Then, with the linearly equivalent signal model, a new jointly MUD algorithm is proposed to detect signals. The ML-like bit-error-rate (BER) performance and reasonably low complexity of the proposed detection are verified by computer simulations.

In this paper, performance of a turbo-coded OFDM system is analyzed and simulated in a power line communication channel. Since the power line communication system typically operates in a hostile environment, turbo code has been employed to enhance reliability of transmitted data. The performance is evaluated in terms of bit error probability. As turbo decoding algorithms, MAP (maximum a posteriori), Max-Log-MAP, and SOVA (soft decision Viterbi output) algorithms are chosen and their performances are compared. From simulation results, it is demonstrated that Max-Log-MAP algorithm is promising in terms of performance and complexity. It is shown that performance is substantially improved by increasing the number of iterations and interleaver length of a turbo encoder. The results in this paper can be applied to OFDM-based high-speed power line communication systems.

In this paper, we propose a novel signal detection method that achieves the maximum likelihood (ML) performance but requires much less computational complexity than the ML detection. When the well-known linear decoding method is used for space-time block coded (STBC) OFDM systems in fast-fading channels, co-channel interference (CCI) as well as inter-carrier interference (ICI) occurs. A maximum likelihood (ML) method can be employed to deal with the CCI; however, its computational complexity is very high. In this paper, we propose a signal detection method for orthogonal space-time coded OFDM systems that achieves the similar error performance as the ML method, but requires much less computational complexity.

For orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), cyclic prefix (CP) should be longer than the length of channel impulse response. In order to prevent a loss of bandwidth efficiency due to the use of a CP, residual intersymbol interference cancellation (RISIC) method has recently been developed. In this paper, we first apply the RISIC algorithm to the space-time block coded (STBC) OFDM and the space-frequency block coded (SFBC) OFDM with insufficient CP. It is shown that in the STBC OFDM, tail cancellation as well as cyclic restoration of the RISIC should be repeated. Second, we propose iterative channel estimation method for the RISIC in the STBC OFDM system with insufficient CP. Based on the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, the proposed estimation method exploits the extrinsic probabilities of the channel decoder iteratively. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by computer simulation in a multipath fading environment.
