In this paper, the Walsh coded orthogonal training signals for 4 × 4 multiple input multiple output-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems are designed and the channel estimation equations are derived as a closed form, taking account of the inter training signal interference problems caused by the multi-path delayed signals. The performances of the proposed channel estimation method are analyzed and compared with the conventional methods[9,14] by using computer simulation. The simulation results show that the proposed methods has better performances, compared with the conventional methods[9,14]. As a result, the proposed method can be used for MIMO-OFDM systems with null sub-carriers.

The conventional WF(water-filling)-MIMO systems assumes that the channel state information is perfectly known at receiver. However, since, generally, the perfect channel state information is not available at receiver, channel estimation error should be considered at the system. Therefore, in this paper 4he performance of the conventional WF-MIMO systems is numerically analyzed when channel estimation error is considered. The analysis results show that mean square error of channel estimation up to $10^{-4}$ is tolerable to get the same performance obtained when perfect channel information is available.

CDMA scheme has received a great deal of attenttion as a multiple-access method for future mobile networks. Its main advantage: are higher radio capacity and the capacity of flexible data tranmission. And CDMA scheme is a key technology in the proposals submitted to the ITU on next generation multimedia system with integrated services, namely real-time voice services and non real-time data services. In this paper, capacity evaluation of multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO) Multi-Carrier(MC)/CDMA system is considered to mitigate multiple access interference, partial-band interference and enhance system channel capacity in wireless channel. Recently, to increase the spectrum efficiency and the link reliability, MIMO-MC/CDMA scheme is devised to exploit multi-path in a scattering wireless channel. In particular, the channel capacity of MIMO-MC/CDMA system is evaluated according to Eb/No. Mc, p and B. From the results, in order to inappropriate spacing and the signals are frequency overlapped by partial band interference, the channel capacity of MIMO-MC/CDMA system becomes substantially smaller.

In this paper, a channel estimation method by orthogonalizing of the time domain training signal in MIMO-OFDM systems is proposed. It has shown that Jeon's method[8] cannot be directly used in 4 Tx antenna MIMO-OFDM systems since the delayed Rx signals interfere the orthogonal property of the time domain training signals. As a possible solution to the problem, in this paper, a guard interval is inserted into the center of the training signals so that the orthogonal property between the Rx training signals can be maintained. It is shown by using computer simulations that the proposed method can estimate the channel response in time domain in 4 Tx antenna MIMO-OFDM systems.

The next generation cellular radio systems require high data rate transmission and large system capacity In order to meet these requirements, multiple antennas can be used at the base and mobile stations, forming MIMO(multiple-input, multiple-output) channels This paper considers a downlink MIMO system assuming a large number of base station antennas, a small number of mobile station antennas, and rich-scattering, quasi-stationary, and flat-fading channel environments When the channel state information is given at the base station in a single user system, a MIMO technique with SVD(singular value decomposition) and water-filling can achieve the maximal downlink channel capacity. In multi-user environments, however, SDMA(space division multiple acces) technique can be used to further increase the total channel capacity supported by the base station This paper proposes a MIMO SDMA technique which can transmit parallel data streams to each of multiple users. The proposed method. can achieve higher total channel capacity than SVD-based MIMO techniques or conventional SDMA using smart antennas.

Adaptive MIMO-OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system adaptively changes modulation scheme depending on feedback channel state information (CSI). The CSI feedback channel which is the reverse link channel has multiple symbol delays including propagation delay, processing delay, frame delay, etc. The unreliable CSI due to feedback delay degrades adaptive modulation system performance. This paper compares the MSE and data capacity with respect to delay and channel signal to noise ratio for the two multi-step channel prediction schemes, CTSBP and BTSBP, such that robust adaptive SISO-OFDM/MIMO-OFDM is designed over severe mobile multipath channel conditions. This paper presents an interpolation method to reduce feedback overhead for adaptive MIMO-OFDM and shows MSE with respect to interpolation interval.

In this paper, we study a simulation model for cooperative MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) channels and present a cooperative one-ring channel model which is extended from the geometrical one-ring and two-ring scattering models. Assuming that the source, the destination and the relay are surrounded by an infinite number of scatters, we derive a reference model for the cooperative one-ring channel and propose a simulation model based on the reference model provided in the paper. Then we show how modeling parameters of the simulation model are determined to match the correlation functions for the respective models. With numerical investigation, we also show that the correlation functions for the reference and the simulation are well matched.

본 논문에서는 MIMO(multi-input multi-output)-OFDM(Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing) 시스템에서 정확한 채널 추정을 위하여 CAZAC 시퀀스를 LDC(linear dispersion code)로 부호화하여 전송하는 시스템을 제안한다. MIMO 시스템의 성능은 채널 추정 성능에 크게 영향을 받는다. 또한 MIMO 시스템은 송수신 안테나 개수에 따라 채널의 개수가 증가하므로 서로 다른 송신 안테나에서 전송된 훈련열을 수신기에서 정확히 분리해야 한다. 그러므로 MIMO-OFDM 시스템에서 훈련열로 사용되어질 CAZAC 시퀀스를 LDC로 부호화하여 수신 채널간의 간섭을 제거하는 방법을 제시하고 그 성능을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 비교분석하였다.

In this paper, we propose a new adaptive MIMO switching algorithm that provides the optimal trade-off between throughput and reliability of data in MIMO system. The proposed algorithm is based on the variable packet error predictor which is robust for channel estimation error, and we show that our algorithm has a better spectrum efficiency than the conventional MIMO switching techniques about 8 percent point.

User scheduling boosts the Multi-User Multi-Input Multi-Output (MU-MIMO) gain by selecting an optimal set of users to increase the 802.11 Wi-Fi system capacities. Many kinds of user scheduling algorithms, however, fail to realize the advantages of MU-MIMO due to formidable Channel State Information (CSI) overhead. In this paper, we propose a user scheduling method considering such CSI exchange overhead and its MAC protocol, called ACE (Active CSI Exchange based User Scheduling for MU-MIMO Transmission). Unlike most proposals, where user scheduling is performed after an Access Point (AP) receives CSI from all users, ACE determines the best user set during the CSI exchange phase. In particular, the AP broadcasts a channel hint about previously scheduled users, and the remaining users actively send CSI reports according to their Effective Channel Gains (ECGs) calculated from the hint. Through trace-driven MATLAB simulations, we prove that the proposed scheme improves the throughput gain significantly.
