LTE (long-term evolution) Rel-10 시스템은 하향링크에서 1Gbits/s 상향링크에서 50Mbits/s 데이터 송선율을 목표로 하므로 넓은 대역폭을 사용할 뿐만 아니라 상향 및 하향탱크에서 선부호화 MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) 기법을 적용해야 한다. 최근에는 스마트 중계기의 도입으로 협력통신을 통한 용량 개선이 가능해지면서 페이딩 채널에 LoS (line-of-sight) 성분을 고려하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 라이시안 페이딩 채널의 LoS 지표인 K-factor가 증가함에 따라 기존의 코드북보다 우수한 성능을 보이는 새로운 LTE 시스템용 코드북을 제안한다. 기존 LTE 코드북의 생성 원칙을 유지하면서 코드북의 코드워드 사이의 최소 chordal distance를 최대화하는 방법을 라이시안 채널에 적용한다. LTE 하향링크의 시스템 파라미터로 링크레벨 시뮬레이터를 제작하여 기존과 동일한 사이즈로 더 우수한 성능을 보임을 증명한다.

We consider channel-coded multi-input multi-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission and obtain a condition on its signal for it to attain the maximum diversity and coding gain. As this condition may not be realizable, we propose a suboptimal design that employs an orthogonal transform and a space-frequency interleaver between the channel coder and the multi-antenna OFDM transmitter. We propose a corresponding receiving method based on block turbo equalization. Attention is paid to some detailed design of the transmitter and the receiver to curtail the computational complexity and yet deliver good performance. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed transmission technique can outperform the conventional coded MIMO OFDM and the MIMO block single-carrier transmission with cyclic prefixing.

Herein, a new space-time block coding technique is proposed for a MIMO 2 × 2 multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) system to minimize the bit error rate (BER) in Rayleigh fading channels with reduced decoding complexity using ZF and MMSE linear detection techniques. The main objective is to improve the service quality of wireless communication systems and optimize the number of antennas used in base stations and terminals. The idea is to exploit the correlation product technique between both information symbols to transmit per space-time block code and their own orthogonal Walsh-Hadamard sequences to ensure orthogonality between both symbol vectors and create a full-rate orthogonal STBC code. Using 16 quadrature amplitude modulation and the quasi-static Rayleigh channel model in the MATLAB environment, the simulation results show that the proposed space-time block code performs better than the Alamouti code in terms of BER performance in the 2 × 2 MIMO system for both cases of linear decoding ZF and MMSE.

In this paper, we propose a new joint precoder and postcoder design strategy to support multiple streams per user in multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. We propose two step precoding strategies using equal channel gain decomposition and block diagonalization at the transmitter. With the proposed precoder, the multiuser MIMO channel can be decomposed into multiple parallel channels with equal channel gain per user. After applying receive postcoder which is generated and sent by the transmitter, we can use ML based decoder per stream to achieve full receive diversity. Achievable sum rate bound and diversity performance of the proposed algorithm are presented with feedback signaling design and quantitative complexity analysis. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm asymptotically approaches to the sum rate capacity of the MIMO broadcast channel while maintaining full diversity order.

This paper presents a low-complexity channel-adaptive reconfigurable $4{\times}4$ QR-decomposition and M-algorithm-based maximum likelihood detection (QRM-MLD) multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) detector. Two novel design approaches for low-power QRM-MLD hardware are proposed in this work. First, an approximate survivor metric (ASM) generation technique is presented to achieve considerable computational complexity reduction with minor BER degradation. A reconfigurable QRM-MLD MIMO detector (where the M-value represents the number of survival branches in a stage) for dynamically adapting to time-varying channels is also proposed in this work. The proposed reconfigurable QRM-MLD MIMO detector is implemented using a Samsung 65 nm CMOS process. The experimental results show that our ASM-based QRM-MLD MIMO detector shows a maximum throughput of 288 Mbps with a normalized power efficiency of 10.18 Mbps/mW in the case of $4{\times}4$ MIMO with 64-QAM. Under time-varying channel conditions, the proposed reconfigurable MIMO detector also achieves average power savings of up to 35% while maintaining a required BER performance.

본 논문에서는 송수신 안테나가 각각 4개인 MIMO-OFDM 시스템을 위한 효율적인 FFT 프로세서 구조를 제안한다. MIMO-OFDM 시스템의 기본은 다중 데이터 패스의 전송이므로 기존의 SISO-OFDM 시스템의 FFT 프로세서를 MIMO-OFDM 시스템에 그대로 적용하면 하드웨어 복잡도가 데이터 패스의 수에 선형적으로 증가하게 된다. 따라서 MIMO-OFDM 시스템에 맞도록 저면적의 다채널 FFT 프로세서가 요구된다. 제안된 FFT 프로세서는 다채널 MDC구조를 갖기 때문에 MIMO-OFDM 시스템의 다중 데이터 패스를 효과적으로 처리할 수 있으며, mixed radix 기법을 통한 효율적인 radix 분해를 이용하여 비단순 승산의 수를 감소시켰다. 제안된 구조를 갖는 FFT 프로세서는 HDL을 사용하여 설계된 후 0.18um CMOS 셀 라이브러리를 이용하여 설계되었다. 논리합성 결과, 4채널 radix-4 Multipath Delay Commutator (R4MDC) FFT 프로세서와 비교시 약 25%의 하드웨어가 감소함을 확인하였다. FFT 프로세서는 전체 MIMO-OFDM 시스템에서 약 30% 정도를 차지하는 커다란 블록이기 때문에, 제안된 FFT프로세서는 MIMO-OFDM 시스템의 하드웨어 복잡도를 감소시키는데 큰 공헌을 할 수 있다.

We consider three different secure broadcasting scenarios: i) Broadcast channels with common and confidential messages (BCC), ii) multi-receiver wiretap channels with public and confidential messages, and iii) compound wiretap channels. The BCC is a broadcast channel with two users, where in addition to the common message sent to both users, a private message, which needs to be kept hidden as much as possible from the other user, is sent to each user. In this model, each user treats the other user as an eavesdropper. The multi-receiver wiretap channel is a broadcast channel with two legitimate users and an external eavesdropper, where the transmitter sends a pair of public and confidential messages to each legitimate user. Although there is no secrecy concern about the public messages, the confidential messages need to be kept perfectly secret from the eavesdropper. The compound wiretap channel is a compound broadcast channel with a group of legitimate users and a group of eavesdroppers. In this model, the transmitter sends a common confidential message to the legitimate users, and this confidential message needs to be kept perfectly secret from all eavesdroppers. In this paper, we provide a survey of the existing information-theoretic results for these three forms of secure broadcasting problems, with a closer look at the Gaussian multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel models. We also present the existing results for the more general discrete memoryless channel models, as they are often the first step in obtaining the capacity results for the corresponding Gaussian MIMO channel models.

The paper investigates a novel detector receiver with Kalman channel information estimator and iterative channel response equalization for MIMO (multi-input multi-output) OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) communication systems in fast multipath fading environments. The performances of the existing linear equalizers (LE) are not good enough over most fast fading multipath channels. The existing adaptive equalizer with decision feedback structure (ADFE) can improve the performance of LE. But error-propagation effect seriously degrades the system performance of the ADFE, especially when operated in fast multipath fading environments. By considering the Kalman channel impulse response estimation for the fast fading multipath channels based on CE-BEM (complex exponential basis expansion) model, the paper proposes the iterative receiver with soft decision feedback equalization (SDFE) structure in the fast multipath fading environments. The proposed SDFE detector receiver combats the error-propagation effect for fast multipath fading channels and outperform the existing LE and ADFE. We demonstrate several simulations to confirm the ability of the proposed iterative receiver over the existing receivers.

최근 공간 상관성이 존재하는 채널상황에서 수신 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 공간 변조(spatial modulation, SM) 기법이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 공간 변조 기법은 수신된 신호들 간의 간섭을 제거하기 위하여 여러 개의 송신안테나 중에서 일부만을 이용하여 신호를 전송하고, 안테나 조합에 따라 추가적인 정보를 전송할 수 있다. 따라서 공간 변조 기법을 사용하여 기존 다중안테나(multi-input multi-output, MIMO) 시스템에 적용하면 도심무선채널환경의 상관성에 의한 간섭을 극복할 수 있다. 그러나 상관성이 존재하는 도심무선채널환경에서 공간 변조 기법들의 수신 성능 분석이 정확하게 이루어지지 않고 있다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 상관성을 가진 도심 채널 모델에서 여러가지 공간 변조 기법들의 수신 성능 및 채널효율을 분석하고, 도심무선채널환경에 적합한 공간 변조 시스템을 제안한다.
