Cooperative communications (CC) have received a great deal of attention recently as an efficient way to obtain the spatial diversity without physical arrays. Thus, space-time block codes (STBC) which are well-known for use in co-located multi-antenna systems can be still utilized for single-antenna users in a distributed fashion. In this paper, we propose a cooperative signaling structure using the $\frac{3}{4}$-rate STBC and derive closed-form BER expression which takes the effect of network geometry and transmit power constraint into account. A variety of simulated and numerical results demonstrated the cooperation considerably outperforms the direct transmission when partners are located in appropriate positions.

시공간 블록부호는 송신단에서 여러 개의 안테나를 사용하여 무선 통신의 신뢰도를 높인다. 그런데 4개의 송신안테나를 사용하는 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 차수 4와 전송률 1을 동시에 얻을 수 없다. 직교 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 차수 4를 유지하지만 전송률에서 손해를 보는 반면, 준직교 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 이득에서 손해를 보면서 전송률 1을 유지한다. 본 논문에서는 준직교 시공간 블록부호의 복호기에서 최대 우도 복호 방법으로 비트별 연성결정값을 출력하고, 터보부호와 연접하여 다양한 전송률에서 직교 및 준직교 시공간 블록부호의 성능을 비교하였다.

We present the performance of differential space-time block decoders. which does not require the channel state information. We suggest the structure of the multiple blocks differential space time decoders. which does not require the channel state information, and analyze the Performances. In quasi-static flat fading channels. the Performance of multiple blocks differential detection (MD-STC) outperforms that of 2 blocks(D-STC) by 1.5dB. But in the time-selective fading channels due to Doppler frequency $(f_d)$, the performance of MD-STC degrades as the vehicular speed is greater than 200km/hr in 802.16e systems, where the data transmission rate is 144kbps.

Quadtree, which is a hierarchical data structure, is a very important data structure to represent images. The linear quadtree representation as a way to store a quadtree is efficient to save space compared with other representations. Therefore, it has been widely studied to develop efficient algorithms to execute operations related with quadtrees. The computation of block location is one of important geometry operations in image processing, which extracts a component completely including a given block. In this paper, we present a constant time algorithm to compute the block location of images represented by quadtrees, using three-dimensional $n\times n\times n$ processors on RMESH(Reconfigurable MESH). This algorithm has constant-time complexity by using efficient basic operations to deal with the locational codes of quardtree on the hierarchical structure of $n\times n\times n$ RMESH.

MATLAB Autocode generation is a feature that converts a block diagram model in Simulink to a c program. Utilizing this function makes MATLAB/Simulink an integrated developing environment, from controller design to implementation. It can reduce development cost and time significantly. However, this automated process requires high reliability on the software, especially the original Simulink block diagram model. And thus, the verification of the codes becomes important. In this study, a UAV flight program which is generated with Simulink is validated and modified according to DO-178B. As a result of applying the procedures, the final program not only satisfied the functional requirement but is also verified with structural point of view with Decision Coverage 93%, Condition Coverage 95% and MC/DC 90%.

In this paper, we propose a full rate quasi-orthogonal space-time-frequency block coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(QOSTF-OFDM) that can achieve full symbol rate with four transmit antennas. Sincr: the proposed QOSTF-OFDM can not achieve full diversity, we use diversity advantage collection with zero forcing (DAC-ZF) decoder to compensate the diversity loss at receive side. At the same frequency efficiency, compared with linear orthogonal space-time codes which can not achieve full rate with four transmit antennas over complex constellations, low level modulation can be employed by proposed scheme due to its full rate, i.e., modulation advantage can be achieved. Due to modulation advantage and collected diversify advantage, the proposed scheme exhibits better BER performance than other orthogonal schemes.

In order to increase frequency transmission efficiency, single side band(SSB) transmission systems with the complex conjugate symmetry characteristics on a frequency domain have been studied. In addition, orthogonal block codes(space-time or space-frequency block code(SFBC)) for the diversity performance gain of transmission systems have been widely researched. In this paper, we implement a 3/4-rate SFBC SSB single-carrier(SC) frequency division multiple access(FDMA) system with 4 transmit antennas. It can be shown from the simulation results that the proposed SFBC SSB SC FDMA system using the 3/4-rate 4×4 orthogonal block code outperforms the conventional SSB SC FDMA system and the 2×2 SFBC SSB SC FDMA system with 2 transmit antennas.

MIMO system takes advantage of the spatial diversity obtained by spatially separated antennas for high- performance and high-capacity broadband wireless access. In this paper, we propose Carrier Interferometry coded MIMO-OFDM system (MIMO-CI/OFDM) which provides frequency and spatial diversity. One combined diversity gains featly improve the performance of OFDM systems. To perform a performance analysis, we have used SPW platform that provides an easy tool to analyze the performance. The results show that the performance of MIMO-CI/OFDM shows an approximately 4dB gain over the MIMO-OFDM even in highly frequency selective fading channels.

In this letter, a harmonic-mean-based dual-antenna selection scheme at relay node is proposed in two-way relaying networks (TWRNs). With well-designed distributed orthogonal concatenated Alamouti space-time block code (STBC), a dual-antenna selection problem based on the instantaneous achievable sum-rate criterion is formulated. We propose a low-complexity selection algorithm based on the harmonic-mean criterion with linearly complexity $O(N_R)$ rather than the directly exhaustive search with complexity $O(N^2_R)$. From the analysis of network outage performance, we show that the asymptotic diversity gain function of the proposed scheme achieves as $1/{\rho}{^{N_R-1}}$, which demonstrates one degree loss of diversity order compared with the full diversity. This slight performance gap is mainly caused by sacrificing some dual-antenna selection freedom to reduce the algorithm complexity. In addition, our proposed scheme can obtain an extra coding gain because of the combination of the well-designed orthogonal concatenated Alamouti STBC and the corresponding dual-antenna selection algorithm. Compared with the common-used selection algorithms in the state of the art, the proposed scheme can achieve the best performance, which is validated by numerical simulations.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of various diversity techniques which can contribute to provide efficient multimedia broadcasting services via hybrid/integrated satellite and terrestrial network. Space-time coding can achieve the diversity gain in a multi-path environment without additional bandwidth requirement. Recent study results reported that satellite systems can achieve high diversity gains by appropriate utilization of STC and/or forward error correction. Based on these previous study results, we present various cooperative diversity techniques by combing STC and rate compatible turbo codes in order to realize the transmit diversity for the mobile satellite system. The satellite and several terrestrial repeaters operate in unison to send the encoded signals, so that receiver may realize diversity gain. The results demonstrated in this paper can be utilized in future system implementation.
