In this paper, we propose multicarrier CDMA system using the concept of the modulation level-controlled system in order to make the system robust to the frequency selectivity and to provide a maximum data rate maintaining an acceptable transmission quality over various channel environments. This system selects higher data rate when the channel experiences the low delay spread and slow fading. On the other hand, when the fading changes very fast and the delay spread is very long, the system selects lower data rate. In both cases, the system controls the number of serial-to-parallel converted streams and the number of fed streams. This system has the fixed number of sub-carriers. So the product of tile number of serial-to-parallel converted streams and the number of fed streams is always kept constant. With the same data fed at different sub-carriers, the frequency diversity is achieved. And a RAKE receiver also is utilized to achieve path (time) diversity.

Recently, the demand of broadband communications such as high-speed internet, HDTV, 3D-HDTV and ATM backbone network has been increased drastically. For transmitting the broad-bandwidth data using wireless network, it is needed to use ka-band frequency. However, the use of this ka-band frequency is seriously affected to the received data performance by rain fading and atmospheric propagation loss at the Ka-band satellite communication link. So, we need adaptive MODEM to endure the degraded performance by channel environment. In this paper, we will present the structure and design of the 155Mbps adaptive Modem adaptively compensated against channel environment. In order to compensate the rain attenuation over the ka-band wireless channel link, the adaptive coding schemes with variable coding rates and the multiple modulation schemes such as trellis coded 8-PSK, QPSK, and BPSK are adopted. And the blind demodulation scheme is proposed to demodulate without Information of modulation mode at the multi-mode demodulator, and the fast phase ambiguity resolving scheme is proposed. The design and simulation results of adaptive Modem by SPW model are provided. This 155Mbps adaptive MODEM was designed and implemented by single ASIC chip with the $0.25\mu{m}$ CMOS standard cell technology and 950 thousand gates.

Multimedia applications are much more sensitive to QoS(Quality of Service) than text based ones due to their data continuity. In order to provide a fast moving MH(Mobil Host) using multimedia application with a consistent QoS,an efficient call admission mechanism is in need. This paper proposes the 2SCA(2-Step Call Admission) scheme based on cal admission scheme using pripority to guarantee the consistent QoS for mobile multimedia applications. A calls of MH are classified new calls, hand-off calls, and QoS upgrading calls. The 2SCA is composed of the basic call admission and advanced call admission; the former determines the call admission based on bandwidth available in each cell and the latter determines the call admission by applying DTT(Delay Tolerance Time), PQeueu(Priority Queue), and UpQueue(Upgrade Queue) algorithm according to the type of each call blocked at the basic call admission stage. In order to evaluate the performance of our mechanism, we measure the metrics such as the dropping probability of new calls, dropping probability of hand-off calls, and bandwidth utilization. The result shows that the performance of our mechanism is superior to that of existing mechanisms such as CSP(Complete Sharing Policy), GCP(Guard Channel Policy) and AGCP(Adaptive Guard Channel Policy).

Cognitive Radio (CR) has been recently proposed as a promising technology to remedy the problems of spectrum scarcity and spectrum underutilization by enabling unlicensed users to opportunistically utilize temporally unused licensed spectrums in a cautious manner. In Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks (CRAHNs), data routing is one of the most challenging tasks since the channel availability and node mobility are unpredictable. Moreover, the network performance is severely degraded due to large numbers of path failures. In this paper, we propose the Fault-Tolerant Cognitive Ad-hoc Routing Protocol (FTCARP) to provide fast and efficient route recovery in presence of path failures during data delivery in CRAHNs. The protocol exploits the joint path and spectrum diversity to offer reliable communication and efficient spectrum usage over the networks. In the proposed protocol, a backup path is utilized in case a failure occurs over a primary transmission route. Different cause of a path failure will be handled by different route recovery mechanism. The protocol performance is compared with that of the Dual Diversity Cognitive Ad-hoc Routing Protocol (D2CARP). The simulation results obviously prove that FTCARP outperforms D2CARP in terms of throughput, packet loss, end-to-end delay and jitter in the high path-failure rate CRAHNs.

In this paper, we considered the CDMA/TDD system suitable for high-speed packet data transmission such as Internet and multimedia services, and a sequential decoding scheme which enables fast decoding and retransmission requirement. In addition, we Proposed an improved FANO algorithm, which adopts the competition path in order to reduce the number of revisit nodes. The conventional FANO algorithm suffered from the drawback of much more revisit nodes. Furthermore, we analyzed the performance of the CDMA/TDD system with the sequential decoding scheme we proposed over multipath channel.

For high-speed data communication in band-limited channels, main of the bit error are fading and ISI(Inter-Symbol Interference). The common way of dealing with ISI is using equalization in the receiver. In this thesis, channel adaptive equalizer which uses Fuzzy Stochastic Gradient(FSG) and Constant Modulus Algorithm(CMA) is nonlinear equalizer, or Blind equalizer, that works directly on the signals with no training sequences required. This equalizer employs Takagi-Sugeno's fuzzy model that uses the FSG algorithm, to automatically regulate the step size of the descent gradient vector, combining fast convergence rate and low mean square error(MSE), and the CMA which is a special case of Godard's algorithm, to having multiple dispersion constants($R_p$).

The WiMedia Alliance has specified a Distributed Medium Access Control (D-MAC) protocol based on UWB for high speed wireless home networks and WPANs. In this paper, firstly, the fair SoQ-based Distributed Reservation Protocol (DRP) for D-MAC is analyzed. And a novel SoQ-based relay transmission protocol is proposed to overcome DRP conflicts fast. In the proposed protocol, each device executes the Satisfaction of QoS (SoQ) time slot allocation algorithm independently. And, in order to give the loser device due to DRP conflicts another chance to maintain QoS resources, the proposed relay transmission protocol helps the device reserve another indirect link maintaining the required QoS resources via a relay node.

Adaptive channel equalization complished without resorting to a training sequence is known as blind equalization. In this paper, in order to increase the speed of the convergence and to reduce the steady-state mean squared error simulatneously, we propose the multi-stage DD(decision-direct) algorithm derived from the combination of the Sato algorithm and the decision-directed algorithm. In the starting stage, the multi-stage DD algorithm is identical to the Sato algorithm which guarantees the convergence of the equalizer. As the blind equalizer converges, the number of the level of the quantizers is increased gradally, so that the proposed algorithm operates identical to the decision-directed algorithm which leads to the low error power after the convergence. Therefore, the multi-stage DD algorithm obtains fast convergence rate and low steady state mean squared error.

The channel transmission ratio is speeded up by the combination of the Huffman algorithm, the model scheme of the lossy transform having minimum average code lengths for the image information and good instantaneous decoding capability, with the Lempel-Ziv algorithm showing the fast processing performance during the compression process. In order to increase the processing speed during the compression process, ICMEP algorithm is proposed and the entropy encoder of HDTV is designed and inspected. The ICMEP entropy encoder have been designed by choosing the top-down method and consisted of the source codes and the test benches by the behavior expression with VHDL. As a simulation results, implemented ICMEP entropy encoder confirmed that whole system efficiency by memory saturation prevention and compressibility increase improves.
