In this paper, we propose a new beamforming method which is used in Multiple User-Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) system. An experimental system consists of LTE based TDD base-station which has 2 MIMO elements each of which contains 10-array antennas and 2 mobile terminals each of which has a single antenna. We demonstrate that the Multiple Access Interference can further be reduced by appending a beamforming procedure in MU-MIMO system in which various users share a given channel resource. The proposed algorithm is the ordinary Lagrange beamforming algorithm combined with Zero-Forcing. It is demonstrated that the proposed beamforming method outperforms a conventional method which is the ZF at least by 8dB in terms of SNR through computer simulations. From experimental tests, we verify the feasibility of the proposed beamforming algorithm for realizing a practical LTE based TDD base-station for utilizing channel resources more efficiently.

Lattice-reduction (LR) techniques have been developed for signal detection in spatial multiplexing multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems to obtain the largest diversity gain. Thus, an LR-assisted zero-forcing (ZF) receiver can achieve the maximum diversity gain in spatial multiplexing MIMO systems. In this paper, a simplified analysis of the achievable diversity gain is presented by fitting the channel coefficients lattice-reduced by a complex Lenstra-Lenstra-$Lov{\acute{a}}z$ (LLL) algorithm into approximated Gaussian random variables. It will be shown that the maximum diversity gain corresponding to two times the number of receive antennas can be achieved by the LR-based ZF detector. In addition, the approximated bit error rate (BER) expression is also derived. Finally, the analytical BER performance is comparatively studied with the simulated results.

본 논문에서는 SDH STM-1 신호인 64 QAM RF MODEM (155Mbps급)에서의 ZF(Zero Forcing) 알고리즘을 사용한 (3.3) 탭 Decision Feedback Equalizer를 설계 및 구현 하였다. 설계에 앞서 이루어진 시뮬레이션 결과로부터 11탭 선형등화기에 비해 (3.3) 탭 DFE가 fading 환경에서 약 5dB 정도 우수한 성능을 나타냈으며, 실현 구현된 등화기의 실험결과 fade depth 가 20dB인 경우에도 정상적인 등화성능을 나타내었다.

In this paper, we consider a joint beamforming and jamming design to enhance physical layer security against potential multiple eavesdroppers in a multiple-input and single-output cellular broadcast channel. With perfect channel state information at the base station, we propose various design approaches to improve the secrecy of the target user. Among the proposed approaches, the combined beamforming of maximum ratio transmission and zero-forcing transmission with a combination of maximum ratio jamming and zero-forcing jamming (MRT + ZFT with MRJ + ZFJ) shows the best security performance because it utilizes the full transmit antenna dimensions for beamforming and jamming with an efficient power allocation. The simulation results show that the secrecy rate of this particular proposed approach is better than the rates of the considered conventional approaches with quality-of-service and outage probability constraints.

In this paper, a best channel matrix selection scheme(BCMS) is proposed to approximate maximum likelihood(ML) detection for a multiple-input multiple-output system. For a one stage BCMS scheme, one of the transmitted symbols is selected to perform ML detection and the other symbols are detected by zero forcing(ZF). To increase the diversity of the symbols that are detected by ZF, multi-stage BCMS detection scheme is used to further improve the system performance. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed BCMS scheme can approach that of ML detection with a significant reduction in complexity.

In this paper, various ultra-wideband (UWB) spatial multiplxing (SM) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) receivers based on a prerake diversity combining scheme are discussed and their performance is analyzed. Several UWB MIMO detection approaches such as zero forcing (ZF), minimum mean square error (MMSE), ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC), sorted QR decomposition (SQRD), and maximum likelihood (ML) are considered in order to cope with inter-channel interference. The UWB SM systems based on transmitter-side multipath preprocessing and receiver-side MIMO detection can either boost the transmission data rate or offer significant diversity gain and improved BER performance. The error performance and complexity of linear and nonlinear detection algorithms are comparatively studied on a lognormal multipath fading channel.

본 논문에서는 하향링크 다중 사용자 Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) 채널 환경에서 시스템 용량을 최대화시키기 위한 효과적인 사용자 선택 기법에 대해서 논의한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 사용자 채널 파워와 채널 간의 각도를 이용하여 최적의 사용자 집단을 선택하는 새로운 방법이다. 이 방법은 SUS 방법에 비해 허용 상관도 값을 별도로 생각하지 않아도 되기 때문에 간단한 방법이며, 시스템 성능을 최대화시키는 사용자들을 찾는 방법이기 때문에 향상된 성능을 보인다.

In this paper, the performance of precoding-aided differential spatial modulation (PDSM) systems with optimal transmit antenna subset (TAS) selection is examined analytically. The average bit error rate (ABER) performance of the optimal TAS selection-based PDSM systems using a zero-forcing (ZF) precoder is evaluated using theoretical upper bound and Monte Carlo simulations. Simulation results validate the analysis and demonstrate a performance penalty < 2.6 dB compared with precoding-aided spatial modulation (PSM) with optimal TAS selection. The performance analysis reveals a transmit diversity gain of (N_T-N_R+1) for the ZF-based PDSM (ZF-PDSM) systems that employ TAS selection with N_T transmit antennas, N_S selected transmit antennas, and N_R receive antennas. It is also shown that reducing the number of activated transmit antennas via optimal TAS selection in the ZF-PDSM systems degrades ABER performance. In addition, the impacts of channel estimation errors on the performance of the ZF-PDSM system with TAS selection are evaluated, and the performance of this system is compared with that of ZF-based PSM with TAS selection.

본 논문에서는 다중 사용자(multiuser)가 다수의 기지국 안테나(MIMO, Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output)를 동시에 사용하는 다중 사용자 massive MIMO 시스템 환경을 고려한다. 다중 사용자를 동시에 지원하기 위해 기지국에서는 ZFBF(Zero-Forcing Beamforming) 기법을 고려하고 수신 신호 검출을 위해 파일럿 신호를 고려한 하향 링크 프레임 구조를 적용하여 평균 셀 용량을 도출한다. 평균 셀 용량은 기지국 안테나 수 및 사용자 수에 대해 오목 함수 (concave function)임을 수식적으로 증명하고, 오목 함수 특징을 통해 최적의 기지국 안테나 수 및 사용자 수를 도출한다. 실험 결과를 통해 수식적으로 도출한 최적 값을 검증하고, 최적값 기반의 평균 셀 용량은 송신 SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio)에 비례하여 증가함을 확인할 수 있다.
