Beamforming technique at the ground station is known to be effective in obtaining coverage extension or SNR gain for communication with unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). When a UAV moves, periodic beam tracking is necessary to maintain beam gain. In order to track beams for multiple UAVs, the ground station needs to receive different preamble sequences from multiple UAVs. In this paper, a preamble sequence design technique is proposed for beam tracking in a GMSK-based communication system with multiple UAVs. Hadamard sequence is considered for the design of preamble sequence due to its ideal cross-correlation property. A preamble sequence appropriate for a GMSK communication system with multiple UAVs is proposed after analyzing the properties of received signal in a GMSK system with the input of Hadamard sequence.

In this paper, a GMSK modulator was implemented with a gaussian lowpass filter using digital signal processing, a phase integration, D/A convers and auxiliary circuits. The relatively narrow bandwidth of power spectrum of the GMSK modulator is observed when the cut off frequency (B T) of the gaussian baseband filter is varied. In a demodulator, a discriminator type circuit is used. Using the above degital radio GMSK modem, BER is theoretically derived and experimentally measured when 16Kbps PRBS data is transmitted under Rayleigh fading and additive white gaussian noise conditions.

In this paper, error performance of DS/CDMA GMSK system has been analyzed in a radio channel which is characterized by multi-user interference(MUI) and Nakagami fading. The DS/CDMA GMSK system adopts Maximum Ratio Combining(MRC) diversity and co-channel interference (CCI) to enhance system performance. Using the derived error probability equation, the error performance of DS/CDMA GMSK system has been evaluated and shown in figures to discuss as a function of PN code length(N), number of multi-user(K), number of diversity branch(L), and bit energy per noise power ratio ($E_b/N_0$), fading index(m). The results show that there is a substantial enhancement in performance by employing an MRC diversity or a CCI canceller. Additional improvement can be obtained when the MRC diversity and the CCI canceller are adopted in cascade form. Consequently, we expected that proposed system structure is reliable to the voice communication system in Nakagami fading, multi-user interferences and multipath channel.

In underwater wireless communication, needs for long distance communication using the high frequency are surpassing ones of short range communication by ultrasonic wave, and demands for transmitting and receiving various data such as voice or high resolution image data are increasing as well. In this work, we studied the effects on the real underwater communication depending on the difference of digital modulation methods. Simulation shows that only the performance of GMSK among many other PSK based modulation schemes(BPSK, QPSK, MSK, GMSK) is significant. Test condition simulates the oceanographic conditions along the 207-survey line, 15Km south of Busan and SNR is maintained 35dB or below. Simulated tests are composed of both transmitting image data($3{\times}10^5$ pixel, 4 bit per pixel) and voice communication($10^{-2}$BER, channel capacity of 1Kbps). Test results show that there are gain of about 7 seconds in transmission time in image transmission case, where channel capacity for BPSK, QPSK, and MSK and for GMSK were 65 Kbps and 45 Kbps, respectively and gain of about 8Km in distances in voice communication case.

The equalizer is the central part of the receiver and its performance significantly affects the overall performance of the system in the mobile communication. A proposed equalizer is composed of the channel estimator, MLSE based on the Viterbi algorithm and GMSK decoder. The approximation of GMSK with QPSK has great impact on the equalizer design, because it allows us to use the existing simple and efficient algorithms for designing optimal QPSK equalizer. In order to estimate efficiently channel, we use a sliding window algorithm based on energy calculation and cross-correlator. And also a tuning scheme is presented in order to improve the equalizer performance. Simulation results indicate that a proposed equalizer meets the GSM standards easily in terms of performance.

Although FHSS has many advantages over conventional digital radio communication system, field application has been so far hampered due to its complicated synchronization. In this paper, a new FHSS system is proposed which one FH signal modulated with GMSK and one chip delayed FH signal than former are sent from transmitter, and this is recovered by matching process at a heterodyne correlator in receiver; thus eliminates synchronization as a whole. Through analysis and experiment, we assure that there is possibility in this. The exper- imental result from 915~929 MHz bandwidth with 31 chips is investigated in the environment of AWGN.

$GQ^2PSK$ which is a novel digital mobile communication modulation scheme has been introduced and described. $GQ^2PSK$ is a modulation scheme that bandlimits NRZ digital data with Gaussian filter and modulates it by $Q^2PSK$ scheme which uses two shaping pulses and two carriers which are pairwise quadrature. Thus transmission bit rate can be enhanced and available signal space dimensions are more efficiently utilized, with comparison to the already-existing GMSK, QPSK and OQPSK modulation methods. Via the computer simulation, bit error rate of $GQ^2PSK$ scheme which is bandlimited by gaussian filter to be suitable for digital mobil communication, is lower than that of $Q^2PSK$ by 1.4[dB] in case that the signal-to-noise ration is 0[dB], but we have confirmed that $GQ^2PSK$ modulation scheme is approximately equivalent to the GMSK in the respect of power efficiency, and transmission efficiency of $GQ^2PSK$ is improved to 1.5 times than that of GMSK.

본 논문에서는 계산이 간단한 두 가지의 GMSK (Gaussian minimum shift-keying) 변조기들을 제안한다. 제안된 방법들에서는 필터링과 적분과정의 순차적인 처리 대신에, 필터링되는 데이터 계열들에 따른 적분기 출력에서의 위상 성분들을 미리 구하고, ROM (read only memory)에 저장함으로써 계산량을 크게 줄일 수 있다. 첫 번째 방법에서는 필터링되는 심벌들에 따른 각 샘플시점에서의 위상 변화량들이 미리 계산되며, 위상 샘플 값은 필터에 입력되는 데이터 계열에 의한 샘플시점에서의 총 위상 변화량을 구하여 누적함으로써 얻어진다. 두 번째 방법에서는 입력되는 모든 가능한 데이터 계열들에 따른 모든 샘플시점에서의 총 위상 변화량들을 미리 구하여 ROM에 저장하며, 위상 샘플 값은 입력되는 데이터 계열에 따라 샘플시점에 해당하는 총 위상 변화량을 선택하여 누적함으로써 얻어진다. 또한, 두 번째 방법에서는 데이터 계열의 패턴에 따른 총 위상 변화량들의 대칭적인 성질을 이용함으로써 필요한 메모리량을 줄일 수 있다.
