In this paper, a mobile relay station (MRS) for vehicles with a beamforming antenna is considered to increase the reliability of the transmission link, particularly for the MRS at the cell boundary. A cell searching and direction-of-arrival estimation method for an MRS with a uniform linear array is proposed for OFDM-based cellular systems in a multipath environment, even with the existence of the symbol timing offsets and carrier frequency offsets. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by computer simulation using the standard profile of IEEE 802.16e.

Digital RDA system is retransmit into the opposite direction of the incident signals. Digital RDA system have a disadventage that this system do not signal classification in multipath environment. because multipath signal is shown as vector sum of multipath signal, digital RDA system required complex signal process for multipath signal classification. In this paper, to solve these problem we propose hybrid digital RDA system which combination of the MUSIC algorithm and the digital RDA system. Proposed system has two modes. First mode is digital RDA mode. Secornd mode is digital beamforming mode. Digital RDA mode is used in situations where the less the impact of multipath. Digital beamforming mode is applied to multipath effects is greater. In secornd mode, we find optimal path using MUSIC algorithm. After than the proposed system uses only the optimal path. Through the proposed system in a multipath environment with digital RDA can be used to supplement a disadvantage.

Since the muiltipath signal arrives at the GPS receiver later than the line-of-sight signal, the multipath signal makes the shape of the correlation function asymmetric. This paper proposes a multipath mitigation method through asymmetry estimation of the correlation function, in which multiple correlators are utilized. The asymmetry is estimated from correlation values of correlators which have different chip spacings. Based on the estimated asymmetry, the correlation function is modified in order to get a better code tracking performance. Even through the proposed method uses multiple correlators including the narrow correlator, the acquisition performance is not degraded since the number of search cell of the narrow correlator part can be reduced in the algorithm of the proposed method. The simulation results show that the proposed method gives better performance than the generic correlator in multipath environment.

This paper represents the occurrence structure of the timing variation of TV horizontal synchronizing pulse(H-sync pulse) in mobile TV reception. Fluttering ghost is caused by timing varations of the H-sync pulse and is due to frequency elective fading in a multipath propagation envoronment. H-sync timing fluctuations, and hence, fluttering ghost are directly correlated with the multipath parameters, i.e., H-sync timing fluctuations reflect well the severity of the multipath environment. The occurrence structure of H-sync timtng fluctuation is analysed theoretically in relation to the multipath environnment. The occurrence structure of H-sync timing fluctuation is analysed theoretically in relation to the multipath parameters, assuming the two-ray propagation model. The H-sync timing fluctuation occurs with the variation in relative phase and /or D/U variation of long-delayed multipath waves.

This paper deals with an analysis of multipath which affect a transmission performance in underwater acoustic channel. Underwater acoustic channel with multipath structure is introduced to mathematical modelling for a basin environment. In this paper, SMR(Signal to Multipath Ratio) which is defined as a parameter of multipath's effect is presented as a mathematical equation, and the equation of SMR is simulated by MATLAB program. Furthermore, this paper is also dealt with an implementation of modulation and demodulation system for acoustic transmission Acoustic Transmission is limited by frequency bandwidth so $\pi$/4 Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) methods which is very useful at frequency limitation and FM(Frequency Modulation) are used at acoustic communication system. This implemented hybrid modulation/demodulation system is used as an analog board of image transmission system

This paper proposes an improved multi-stage timing offset estimation scheme for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in multipath fading channel environment. The conventional multi-stage timing offset estimation scheme is very sensitive to the random multipath components. By exploiting the sample standard deviation of the cross-correlation values, the proposed scheme achieves a robustness to the random multipath components. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme has a higher correct estimation probability and has a better mean square error (MSE) performance than the conventional scheme in multipath fading channels.

Multipath routing is one of challenging issues for improving the reliability of end-to-end data delivery in wireless sensor networks. Recently, a disjointedness and management of path have been studying to enhance the robustness and efficiency of the multipath routing. However, previous multipath routing protocols exploit the disjointed multipath construction method that is not to consider the wireless communication environment. In addition, if a path failures is occurred due to the node or link failures in the irregular network environment, they maintain the multipath through the simple method that to construct a new extra path. Even some of them have no a method. In order to cope with the insufficiency of path management, a hole detouring scheme, to bypass the failures area and construct the new paths, was proposed. However, it also has the problem that requires a heavy cost and a delivery suspension to the some or all paths in the hole detouring process due to the centralized and inflexible path management. Due to these limitations and problems, the previous protocols may lead to the degradation of data delivery reliability and the long delay of emergency data delivery. Thus, we propose a flexible disjoint multipath routing protocol which constructs the radio disjoint multipath by considering irregular and constrained wireless sensor networks. It also exploits a localized management based on the path priority in order to efficiently maintain the flexible disjoint multipath. We perform the simulation to evaluate the performance of the proposed method.

In this paper, we propose target range estimation method using ghost target in the submarine linear array sonar. Usually, when submarine detect target, they use passive sonar detection to avoid self-disclosure by active sonar transmission. But, originally, passive linear array sonar have limitation for target range estimation and additional processing is required to get target range information. For the case of near-field target, typical range estimation method is using multiple information by multipath effect in underwater environment. Acoustic signal generated from target are propagated along with numerous multipath in underwater environment. Since multipath target signals received in the linear array sonar have different conic angles each other, ghost target is appeared at the bearing different with real target bearing and sonar operator can find these information on the operation console. Under several assumption, this geometric properties can be analysed mathematically and we get the target range by derivation of this geometric equations using measured conic angles of real target and ghost target.

In this paper presents the WCDMA(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) system using the rake receiver over multipath fading and wireless mobile communication environments. The interference between the propagation paths in a multipath fading causes a serious degradation in the wireless mobile communication environments. In order to derive the path interference and reduce the fading effect the rake receiver is used. As a result, the WCDMA system using the rake receiver gives a better performance than the convention WCDMA system over a multipath fading and wireless mobile communication environments.
