In this paper, we propose a low complexity multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detection algorithm with adaptive interference mitigation in downlink multiuser MIMO (DL MU-MIMO) systems with quantization error of the channel state information (CSI) feedback. In DL MU-MIMO systems using the imperfect precoding matrix caused by quantization error of the CSI feedback, the station receives the desired signal as well as the residual interference signal. Therefore, a complexMIMO detection algorithm with interference mitigation is required for mitigating the residual interference. To reduce the computational complexity, we propose a MIMO detection algorithm with adaptive interference mitigation. The proposed algorithm adaptively mitigates the residual interference by using the maximum likelihood detection (MLD) error criterion (MEC). We derive a theoretical MEC by using the MLD error condition and a practical MEC by approximating the theoretical MEC. In conclusion, the proposed algorithm adaptively performs interference mitigation when satisfying the practical MEC. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm reduces the computational complexity and has the same performance, compared to the generalized sphere decoder, which always performs interference mitigation.

본 논문에서는 전이중 통신 방식을 사용하는 DOCSIS 3.1 시스템의 자기간섭 제거를 위한 자기간섭신호의 채널 및 비선형 왜곡 요소를 추정하는 기술을 제안한다. DOCSIS 3.1 시스템의 전이중 통신 방식은 일반적으로 가입자 단말인 CM (Cable Modem) 과 케이블방송신호 송신 시스템인 CMTS (Cable Modem Termination System) 사이의 상하향 통신을 시간/주파수의 분할 없이 동시에 수행하는 통신 방식이다. CMTS 에서 CM 의 신호를 수신함과 동시에 CMTS 신호를 송신하는 경우 고출력의 CMTS 송출신호가 CMTS 의 수신기로 인가되는 자기간섭 현상이 발생하게 된다. 이렇게 인가되는 자기간섭신호는 고출력 증폭기 (HPA: High - Power Amplifier) 및 Feedback 채널의 영향으로 크게 왜곡되어 수신된다. 따라서 자기간섭신호를 제거하고 CM 의 신호를 원활하게 복조하기 위해서는 자기간섭신호의 왜곡 요소룰 추정 및 보상하는 절차가 반드시 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 자기간섭신호의 HPA 에서 발생하는 비선형 왜곡 요소 및 Feedback 채널의 영향으로 발생하는 채널 요소를 추정하는 기술을 제안하고 성능을 분석한다. 제안된 기술은 간단한 연산기반으로 왜곡요소의 추정이 가능하며 반복추정을 통해 성능을 효과적으로 향상시키는 것이 가능하다.

Underwater Acoustic Channels (UAC) have inherent sparse characteristics. The traditional adaptive equalization techniques do not utilize this feature to improve the performance. In this paper we consider the Variable Adaptive Subgradient Projection (V-ASPM) method to derive a new sparse equalization algorithm based on the Minimum Symbol Error Rate (MSER) criterion. Compared with the original MSER algorithm, our proposed scheme adds sparse matrix to the iterative formula, which can assign independent step-sizes to the equalizer taps. How to obtain such proper sparse matrix is also analyzed. On this basis, the selection scheme of the sparse matrix is obtained by combining the variable step-sizes and equalizer sparsity measure. We call the new algorithm Sparse-Control Proportional-MSER (SC-PMSER) equalizer. Finally, the proposed SC-PMSER equalizer is embedded into a turbo receiver, which perform turbo decoding, Digital Phase-Locked Loop (DPLL), time-reversal receiving and multi-reception diversity. Simulation and real-field experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance in convergence speed and Bit Error Rate (BER).

Dual-layer differential codebook using 8-PSK (phase shift keying) constellation as its codeword elements, is proposed for Long term evolution (LTE) and/or LTE-Advanced systems. Due to the temporal correlation of the adjacent channel matrices, the consecutive precoding matrices are likely to be similar. This approach quantize only the differential information of the channel instead of the whole channel subspace, which virtually increase the codebook size to realize more accurate quantization of the channel. Especially, the proposed codebook has the same properties of LTE release-8 codebook that is, constant modulus, complexity reduction, and nested property. The mobile station can be designed by using less expensive non-linear amplifier utilizing constant modulus property. Computer simulations show that the capacity of the proposed dual-layer codebook performs almost 1.2dB better than those of any other non-differential codebooks with the same amount of feedback information.

This paper presents a power control scheme for OFDM based wireless communication systems in a multicell environment with co-channel interference which enables each system to achieve its target level of transmission bit rate. Generally, the optimal or near optimal power control scheme for multicarrier systems is Down to control the power level of each subcarrier in accordance with the associated channel status, which may be found in WF(waterfilling) and WF(iterative waterfilling) schemes. However, this requires the channel state information associated with every subchannel to be fed back from the receiver to its transmitter for successful power control. If the wireless channel exhibits relatively fast fading or the number of subcarriers is large, this may result in a considerable overhead. Here, in order to alleviate this problem, we propose a power control strategy for an OFDM systems maintaining the same power level over all the subcarriers. Also we prove its convergence, compare its complexity with that of the existing IWF algorithm, and examine its convergence characteristic through computer simulations.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been investigated as an enabling technology for future wireless communications such as ad hoc, mesh and sensor networks. However, prior works on bit-loading lack consideration of the constraints on energy and computing facility in sensor networks. In this paper, we suggest an adaptive bit allocation algorithm for a frequency selective fading channel environment which exploits channel state information obtained through a feedback channel. The proposed algorithm significantly reduces computational complexity and satisfies the power budget. Also, its throughput is comparable to the optimum solution. Simulation results support the claim stated.

We propose a dual-layer differential equal-gain codebook design methodology for LTE-Advanced(LTE-A), IEEE802.ac, and radar system having multiple transmit and receive antennas, and make computer simulations to evaluate its link-level performaces. M-ary phase shift keying constellation is used as its codeword elements to utilize low-cost power amplifiers at mobile stations. Especially, the proposed codebook can meet radar systems requirement for the high-powered equal-gain transmission property. Due to the temporal correlation of the adjacent channel, the proposed differential codebook can quantize only the differential information of the channel instead of the whole channel subspace, which virtually increase the codebook size to realize more accurate quantization of the channel. The proposed codebook has the same properties of LTE codebook that is, constant modulus, complexity reduction, and nested property. Computer simulations show that the proposed codebook performs better than the conventional 8-ary codebooks with the same amount of feedback information.

In this paper we consider technological requirements of the on-channel repeater to broadcast the terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (T-DMB) signals using single frequency networks (SFN) and propose the configuration and implementation method of the equalization on-channel repeater (OCR) that meet such requirements. The proposed equalization OCR not only has short time delay, but shows high output power and good quality of output signal by removing a feedback signal due to incomplete antenna isolation and multipath signal existing between the main transmitter and the OCR. In addition, computer simulations and laboratory tests results are provided to figure out performance of the proposed equalization OCR.

The 8-VSB modulation, the transmission standard for the terrestrial digital television(DTV) of the Advanced Television Systems Committee(ATSC), suffers from multipath fading because it conveys information on the amplitude. To solve this problem, decision feedback equalizers(DFE's) have been commonly used in terrestrial DTV receivers. However, under severe channels, such as a 0 dB ghost channel or a single frequency network (SFN) channel, the DFE shows unstable convergence due to the error propagation caused by decision errors. Instead of unstable time-domain DFE schemes, by proposing a frequency-domain direct-inversion equalization method, we try to guarantee stable equalization and achieve low symbol error rates. To secure the existence of a channel inverse, channel-matched filtering and noncausal filtering are carried out prior to equalization. Simulation results show that the proposed method performs much better than existing DFE schemes in terms of both the stability and the symbol error rate.
