  • In the environment of wireless communication system of IEEE 802.15.3a UWB standard, the angle of arrival(AOA) estimation technique for the indoor wireless positioning algorithms, based on the AOA parameter estimation which fits well for the wireless communication channel and shows high estimation accuracy, is proposed. After the UWB signal model, based on the IEEE 802.1.3a standard, is constructed, the average weighted MUSIC technique is proposed, which shows better estimation accuracy than those of conventional estimation technique. Through the simulation studies, the environment of the indoor wireless positioning system including the IEEE 802.15.3a channel is configured and we demonstrate better estimation results by the proposed AOA estimation technique than those from the conventional method.

  • In this paper, the channel change was continuously measured for 24 hours from July 5, 2017 on the coast near Deokjeok-do, Incheon. The underwater channel has various channel environment characteristics as the change in the time axis and the change in the frequency axis occurs in real time, and the underwater communication performance decreases due to the multipath fading and the Doppler effect. Therefore, in this study, we performed the OFDM system performance analysis in the underwater channel environment by applying the repetitive transmission diversity scheme in the time and frequency domain to improve the communication performance in the real-world underwater communication environment. Using the collected data, we compared the channel environment in the time and frequency domain and analyzed the BER performance according to the pilot spacing and the number of repetitive transmissions in the time and frequency axis.

  • This paper proposed "Priority Scheduling and MultiPath Routing Protocol (RRPS) for preventing communication disruption in the urban environment" to minimize the disconnection or disruption of V2I and V2V communication in the urban environment where communication is frequently disconnected according to density. The flow of the RRPS is explained as follows. RSU Request Priority Scheduling (RRPS) is used to apply the priority of the request message prior to reaching the end line by using the Start Line and End Line, which are the management areas of the RSU). This paper also proposed MPRP (Multi Path Routing Protocol) design to set up the multipath to the destination. As a result, the proposed RRPS improves the processing efficiency of V2I by applying priority scheduling to the message of the vehicle requesting the information in the RSU, and can prevent the communication disconnection. Thereby, it is improved the transmission success probability.

  • Location Positioning is a major technology for ubiquitous computing. Recently the research on Location Positioning using UWB is on going. In order to construct an in-door location network, synchronization of base stations is very important. NTP is Popularly used as clock synchronization protocol ranging from LAN to WAN. Also Master-Slave scheme is the simplest method to synchronize in-door network. We compare and analyze NTP and Master-Slave schemes according to the statistical channel model for indoor multipath propagation environment. In this paper, error ranges are calculated at various circumstances that in-door network expands from one primary base station into several base stations. We compared the correctness of NTP and Master-Slave synchronization methods. NTP is more reasonable synchronization protocol in in-door environment.

  • Recently, location information services are gradually expanding due to the development of information and communication technology. RSSI is widely used to extract indoor and outdoor locations. The indoor and outdoor location estimation methods using RSSI are less accurate due to the influence of radio wave paths, interference, and surrounding wireless devices. In order to improve this problem, a distance estimation method that takes into account the wireless propagation environment is necessary. Therefore, in this study, we propose a distance estimation algorithm that takes into account the radio wave environment. The proposed method estimates the distance by learning RSSI input and output considering the RBF neural network and the propagation environment. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, the performance of estimating the location of the receiver within a range of up to 55[m] using a BLE beacon transmitter and receiver was compared with the average filter and Kalman filter. As a result, the distance estimation accuracy of the proposed method was 6.7 times higher than that of the average filter and Kalman filter. As shown in the results of this performance evaluation, if the method of this study is applied to location services, more accurate location estimation will be possible.

  • MC-DS-CDMA is technique where a single data symbol is transmitted at multiple subcarriers which are orthogonal to each other. With this technique, frequency diversity can be achieved. Time variant channels lead to interchannel interference which increases the bit error rate for MC-DS-CDMA systems. The performance of PSAM MC-DS-CDMA system over time variant channels is analyzed. The BER performance of this system over multipath fading environment is evaluated, considering the channel estimation error, carrier frequency offset.

  • We present the frame synchronization scheme using the FFT window position restoration algorithm appropriate for wireless OFDM systems under multipath fading environment. From the restoration of the synchronization parameters of previous several frames, the algorithm can extract the synchronization parameters for the next frames. To analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm, we compare the probability of synchronization failure under time and frequency domains, respectively. From the simulation results, one can see that the algorithm in the time domain shows better performance than in the frequency one, for the $E_b/N_o$ of 6.0dB or more.

  • There are several factors that disturb an Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radio propagation in an indoor environment such as path loss, shadowing and multipath fading. These factors directly affect the quality of the received signal. In this paper, we investigated the influence of the human body shadowing on UWB propagation based on measured wireless channel in an anechoic chamber. The characteristics of the UWB channel including the transmitter and the receiver antenna effects are acquired over the frequency bandwidth of 3${\sim}$11 GHz. The major factors such as the power delay profile (PDP), the angular power distribution (APD), the pulse distortion and the RMS delay spread caused by the human body shadowing are presented.
