본 논문에서는 단거리 M/W 전송장비에서 사용 가능한 10Mbps 급 OFDM/QPSK 시스템을 제안하였다. OFDM 변조 신호는 two-ray 다중경로 페이딩의 영향을 받는다. 채널 모델은 Rummler가 제안한 마이크로파 대역의 two-ray 채널 모델을 사용하였다. 수신단에서는 다중 경로 채널에 따른 성능 왜곽을 보상하기 위해 여분의 Training Sequence 또는 Pilot 심볼 없이 등화를 행할 수 있는 Blind 적응 등화기를 채택하였다. OFDM 시스템에 따른 두 가지의 등화기, Pre-FFT 적응 등화기와 주파수 적응 등화기 및 두 개의 등화기를 결합한 병행 적응 등화기를 각각 시스템에 도입하여 성좌도와 SER 성능 곡선을 통해 성능 개선 정도를 분석하였다. 분서결과로부터 주파수 적응 등화기와 Pre-FFT 적응 등화기의 각각의 특성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 또한 병행 적응 등화기의 도입에 따른 시스템 개선 정도를 확인할 수 있었다.

We consider channel-coded multi-input multi-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission and obtain a condition on its signal for it to attain the maximum diversity and coding gain. As this condition may not be realizable, we propose a suboptimal design that employs an orthogonal transform and a space-frequency interleaver between the channel coder and the multi-antenna OFDM transmitter. We propose a corresponding receiving method based on block turbo equalization. Attention is paid to some detailed design of the transmitter and the receiver to curtail the computational complexity and yet deliver good performance. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed transmission technique can outperform the conventional coded MIMO OFDM and the MIMO block single-carrier transmission with cyclic prefixing.

In this paper, we propose and evaluate joint carrier and sampling frequency offset estimation schemes based on the channel estimation sequences in PLCP (Physical Layer Convergence Procedure) preamble for the proper and effcient synchronization of the MB-OFDM WB (Multi-Band Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Ultra Wide Band) systems which have recently drawn explosive attention for future W-PAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) applications. In the joint estimation schemes, we first estimate the sampling frequency offset, and then estimate the carrier frequency offset using the estimated sampling frequency offset. Moreover, to improve the reliability of the estimated offset values, each process uses a combination scheme based on weighting factors. Simulation results using IEEE 802.15 Task Group 3a UWB channel models reveal that the estimation scheme using the simple weighting factors based on easily-measurable received signal power of each sub-channel shows favorably comparable performance to the ideal scheme using the weighting factors based on the perfectly-estimated frequency response of the channel.

In this paper, we modeled digital M/W transmission channel by frequency non-selective fading channel and analyzed the power spectrum magnitude of digital M/W transmission systems adopting OFDM modulation scheme through simulation. From the simulation results, it was found that deep does not appear in the specified fixed bandwidth under the AWGN environment. Also, lower power spectrum magnitude was shown in frequency non-selective fading channel than that in AWGN channel. Futhermore, the power spectrum magnitude value became more lowered when carrier frequency and vehicle speed became higher.

최근 많은 광대역 유무선 통신 응용분야에서 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 방식을 표준기술로 채택하고 있다 OFDM 방식의 고속 무선 데이터 통신를 위한 FFT 프로세서는 일반적으로 DSP(Digital Signal Processing)로 구현되었으나, 큰 전력 소비를 필요로 한다. OFDM의 단점인 전력문제를 보안하기 위해서 Current-mode FFT LSI가 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 Current-mode FFT LSI의 구현을 위한 저전력 IVC를 설계하였다. 설계된 IVC는 FFT Block의 출력이 $13.65{\mu}A$ 이상일 때에 3V 이상의 전압을 출력하고, FFT Block의 출력이 $0.15{\mu}A$ 이하일 때에 0.5V 이하의 전압을 출력한다. 그리고 IVC의 총 소모전력은 약 1.65mW이다. $0.35{\mu}A$ 공정에서의 저전력 IVC를 설계함으로서, $0.35{\mu}A$ 공정에서의 Current-mode FFT LSI의 설계가 가능해졌다. 저전력 OFDM 통신용 Current-mode FFT LSI는 무선통신의 발전에 기여할 것으로 전망한다.

The efficient hardware design of the the algorithm is important in wide variety of DSP. One example is OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) based WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) systems which place high requirements on throughput and power consumption on FFT. The output RAM is composed of two banks of $64{\times}W.$ The banks are swapped immediately following the falling edge or the start signal strobe. This bank swapping allows 64-Point FFT to continue Processing samples and to continue filling the alternative bank, without affecting the data flow outputs.

This paper will focus on improving the performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in Rayleigh fading environments. The proposed technique will use a previously published method that has been shown to improve OFDM performance in independent fading, based on ordered sub-carrier selection. Then, a simple non-iterative method for finding the optimal bit-loading allocation was proposed. It was also based on ordered sub-carrier selection. We compared both of these algorithms to an optimal bit-loading solution to determine their effectiveness in a correlated fading environment. The correlated fading was simulated using the JTC channel models. Our intent was not to create an optimal solution, but to create a low complexity solution that can be used in a wireless environment in which the channel conditions change rapidly and that require a simple algorithm for fast bit loading.

A CMOS LNA based on a single-stage cascode configuration is designed for MB-OFDM ultra-wide band(UWB) systems. Wideband($3.1GHz\~4.9GHz$) input matching is performed using a simple bandpass filter to minimize the chip size and the noise figure degradation. The simulation results using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process parameters show a power gain of 9.7dB, a 3dB band width of $2.1GHz\~7.1GHz$, a minimum NF of 2dB, an IIP3 of -2dBm. better than -11.8dB of input matching while occupying only $0.74mm^2$ of chip area. It consumes 25.8mW from a 1.8V supply.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), which employs orthogonal overlapping subcarriers to modulate the signals, has been attracted much attention in recent time as a favorable option for future generation wireless networks due to its ability to overcome many impairments in wireless channels. Since OFDM is a multi-carrier system adaptive modulation techniques can be effectively and efficiently used to enhance the system performance in terms of both BER and overall system capacity. This paper discusses a COFDM-CDMA system with adaptive modulation schemes for future generation wireless networks.
