A simple scheduler satisfying the proportional fairness (PF) was introduced in wireless access networks and revealed that it can achieve a good compromise between total throughput and user fairness. Though it has received much attention for some time, its application was mainly restricted to the single channel systems. In this paper, we study how to implement the PF scheduler in the multi-channel environments such as OFDMA/TDMA. Besides the traditional PF-SC scheme, we propose a new PF-OPT scheme that is the genuine PF scheduler in a sense of maximizing the total log-utility of users. The simulation results show that PF-OPT gives large throughput under the heterogeneous subchannel statistics.

IEEE802.16e-based OFDMA system called WiBro is being serviced commercially. In WiBro system, the base station sends downlink(DL)-MAP information to all mobile stations in each cell. The DL-MAP information is repeated six times, modulated by QPSK, and coded by Convolutional Turbo Coding(CTC) with 1/2 code rate [1],[2]. As the number of mobile stations increases, the DL-MAP size also increases. In this paper, We investigate methods of power allocation and interference cancelation to reduce overhead of the DL-MAP.

A new frequency offset estimator using low cross-property of PN sequences is proposed in the orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) uplink systems. Simulation results show that the proposed estimator improves the mean square error (MSE) performance compared to conventional estimator [2] where each user have both different timing offset and different frequency offset. In addition, the MSE performance is improved as the length of PN sequence increases.

The objective of this paper is to provide service continuity based on an efficient subchannel allocation in OFDMA systems. The management for handover are necessary to maintain the QoS requirements of different multimedia applications because the service continuity may be defected by some delay and information loss.

We present a multiuser synchronization scheme for OFDMA uplink systems. First a new preamble structure is proposed by which timing and frequency offsets estimation is developed. Based on proposed structure a new joint synchronization scheme is presented and the simulation results show that the performance of this scheme don't suffer from the number of users.

In distributed-allocation OFDMA systems, cyclic delay diversify can improve the system performance by increasing frequency diversity. However, applying cyclic delay diversify to distributed-allocation SC-FDMA systems can affect the performance in two contrary ways: positive effect due to increased frequency diversity and negative effect caused by increased frequency selective channels. This paper addresses these two contrary effects and discusses about when cyclic delay diversity is useful and when it is not very useful for distributed-allocation SC-FDMA systems.

In OFDMA-based cellular system, inter-cell interference (ICI) reduces system capacity by aggravating receiving performance of the users located in edge of the cell. Therefore, to mitigate ICI is very important issue in cellular system. To deal with ICI problem, fractional frequency reuse (FFR) is introduced. FFR is an interference management technique. It separates each cell into inner cell and outer cell. Then, it allocates whole system bandwidth to inner cell and different frequency partition to each sector of outer cell. By doing this, outer cell users can ignore interferences from adjacent cells. So, the receiving performance of the cell edge users can be fairly increased. However, using FFR technique has a fatal side effect. In order to use different frequency partition among three sectors of outer cell, they can use only a third of the whole system bandwidth. Then, the reduction of available bandwidth reduces the system throughput directly. To solve this problem, we propose a new FFR method that allocates partially overlapped frequency partition to each sector of outer cell. And then, we suggest a proper overlapping ratio for practical cellular system.
