본 논문에서는 레일리(Rayleigh) 페이딩 채널 환경에서 MMSE-OSUC 수신기 알고리즘을 적용한 MIMO 시스템의 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 평가하였다. 변조 기법은 BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM으로 각각 나누어 시뮬레이션을 수행하였고, 프레임의 길이는 100 심볼로 설정하였다. 먼저 송신단에서 채널상태정보를 모르는 경우의 MIMO 시스템의 채널 용량을 이론적으로 산출하였다. 성능 해석 결과, 채널 용량은 채널의 함수이므로 MIMO 시스템의 채널 용량은 채널의 특성에 따라 큰 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 다음으로 MIMO 채널에서의 성능 향상을 위해 MIMO 시스템에 적용되는 기술의 각 알고리즘을 분석하였다. 성능 해석 결과, MMSE-OSUC 수신기 알고리즘을 적용한 경우가 기존 ZF-OSUC 수신기 알고리즘을 적용한 경우보다 전반적으로 성능은 우수하지만, 성좌도가 큰 변조 기법을 사용할수록 그 성능 차이가 감소함을 알 수 있었다.

가시광 무선통신은 전송하고자 하는 데이터를 빠른 ON/OFF 속도를 갖는 LED를 이용해 고속의 무선 데이터 전송 수단으로 사용하는 통신 방식이다. VLC 시스템이 발전함에 따라 기본적인 연구 문제는 통신 신뢰성 확보와 성능을 향상시키는 것이다. 가시광 무선통신의 특성 상 빛의 도달 범위에만 통신이 이루어지며, 이는 빛의 발광각도에 따라서 큰 차이를 나타낸다. 이에 본 논문에서는 일반적인 실내 환경의 경우, 여러 개의 LED가 장착되어 있는 속성을 이용하여 MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) 통신 시스템 적용하였으며, 송신기의 발광각도를 변화시켜 수신단에서 얻는 총 전력과 SNR성능을 분석하였다. 이에 대해 시뮬레이션을 실행한 결과, 송신기의 발광 각도에 따라서 SNR 성능과 BER성능에 많은 영향을 끼침을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose a data-driven-based beam selection scheme for massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) systems in ultra-dense networks (UDN), which is capable of addressing the problem of high computational cost of conventional coordinated beamforming approaches. We consider highly dense small-cell scenarios with more small cells than mobile stations, in the millimetre-wave band. The analog beam selection for hybrid beamforming is a key issue in realizing millimetre-wave UDN MIMO systems. To reduce the computation complexity for the analog beam selection, in this paper, two deep neural network models are used. The channel samples, channel gains, and radio frequency beamforming vectors between the access points and mobile stations are collected at the central/cloud unit that is connected to all the small-cell access points, and are used to train the networks. The proposed machine-learning-based scheme provides an approach for the effective implementation of massive MIMO system in UDN environment.

In this paper, we propose an iterative interstream interference cancellation technique for system with frequency selective multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel. Our method is inspired by the fact that the cancellation of the interstream interference can be regarded as a reduction in the magnitude of the interfering channel. We show that, as iteration goes on, the channel experienced by the equalizer gets close to the single input multiple output (SIMO) channel and, therefore, the proposed SIMO-like equalizer achieves improved equalization performance in terms of normalized mean square error. From simulations on downlink communications of $2{\times}2$ MIMO systems in high speed packet access universal mobile telecommunications system standard, we show that the proposed method provides substantial performance gain over the conventional receiver algorithms.

This paper investigates on the use of constant-amplitude zero-autocorrelation (CAZAC) sequence for channel estimation in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system over indoor wireless channel. Since the symbol-length of the conventional 4-phase CAZAC sequence is short, there is a limitation to use it for MIMO system in multipath environments. An algorithm which generates longer CAZAC sequences is proposed to overcome that problem. Flexible symbol-length of 4-phase CAZAC sequences can be made by the proposed algorithm. Therefore appropriate symbol-length of CAZAC sequences could be utilized as preambles in accordance with the number of transmit antennas and channel condition. The effect of the number of CAZAC sequences for channel estimation is presented in terms of mean square error (MSE).

Visible light communication (VLC) is a rapidly growing area of research and applications, due to the potential and predicted high efficiency of bandwidth. One of the key challenges in VLC technology is the choice of devices which are going to be deployed VLC features. Smartphone rationally uses the most widely deployed visible light sensor i.e. image sensor in camera, which could be used to receive the intensity modulated data. Image sensor based VLC system would be the most deployable scenario but initially the capacity was not much attractive compared with photodetector based VLC system. Here, the spatial multiplexing is proposed in MIMO based VLC system to increase the system capacity by utilizing the property of spatial separation of optical light sources in smartphone's camera module. The active pixels of imaging plane act as the multiple receivers which could be able to use on MIMO spatial multiplexing to enhance the system performance.

A promising approach to improve the performance of mobile location system is the use of antenna arrays in both transmitter and receiver sides. Using advanced array signal processing techniques, such multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems can offer more mobile location information by exploiting the spatial properties of the multipath channel. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to determine the position of mobile terminal based on estimated multipath signal parameters using only one base station in MIMO communication systems. This approach intends to minimize the error occurring from the estimation of multiple paths and gives an optimal estimation of the position of mobile terminal by simultaneously calculating a set of nonlinear location equations. This solution breaks the bottleneck of conventional mobile location systems which have to require multilateration of at least three base stations.

This study focuses on improving MIMO-OFDM systems by combining a wireless communication architecture known as vertical BLAST(bell laboratories layered space-time) or V-BLAST and STTC(space time trellis coding). In this paper, the combination is done by introducing STTC in each V-BLAST layer. Moreover, this architecture uses multiple antennas that are grouped into small number of antennas which makes it less complex to decode by decoding every group. Whereas, in traditional V-BLAST, all the antennas form one group and they are decoded together at the receiver, therefore, this increases the complexity as the number of antennas is getting high. We compare the bit error rate performance of this system with MIMO-OFDM that uses convolutional coding instead of STTC. Under the same spectral efficiency, the simulation results prove that joining V-BLAST with STTC improves MIMO-OFDM systems performance.

Recently, MIMO communications are regarded as one of the most promising emerging wireless technologies. This paper investigates MIMO wireless systems and their applications in a railway communication system. We firstly discuss railway communication environments including propagation characteristics and radio channel modeling. Next, we consider channel estimate methods, which is a crucial issue under rapidly varying channel condition due to the movement of trains. Channel estimation methods for MIMO systems are addressed and the effect of estimation error is studied. We also have performed simulations for transmit beamforming system and STBC(Space-time block coding) to investigate the performance of MIMO schemes in railway systems.
