In this paper, we propose an efficient and robust interference mitigation technique based on a nullsteering multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) spatial division multiple access (SDMA) scheme for frequency sharing between IMT-advanced and fixed satellite service (FSS) in the 3400-4200 and 4500-4800 MHz bands. In the proposed scheme, the pre-existing precoding matrix for SDMA unitary precoded (UPC) MIMO proposed by the authors is modified to construct nulls in the spatial spectrum corresponding to the direction angles of the victim FSS earth station (ES). Furthermore, a numerical formula to calculate the power of the interference signal received at the FSS ES when IMT-Advanced base stations (BS) are operated with the interference mitigation technique is presented. This formula can be derived in closed form and is simply implemented with the help of simulation, resulting in significantly reduced time to obtain the solution. Finally, the frequency sharing results are analyzed in the co-channel and adjacent channel with respect to minimum separation distance and direction of FSS earth station (DOE). Simulation results indicate that the proposed mitigation scheme is highly efficient in terms of reducing the separation distance as well as robust against DOE estimation errors.

This paper proposes a new interference mitigation scheme for device-to-device (D2D) communications underlaying a cellular network. The object of the proposed scheme is to determine the number of data streams, a precoding matrix, and a decoding matrix of D2D networks so as to maximize the system capacity given the number of data streams of a cellular network while satisfying the constraint of the inter-system interference from D2D networks to the cellular network. Unlike existing interference mitigation schemes based on the interference alignment technique, the proposed scheme operates properly regardless of the number of data streams of a cellular network and moreover it does not require changing the precoding and decoding matrices of a cellular network. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme significantly increases the system capacity by mitigating the intra- and inter-system interference.

The coexistence among different systems is a major problem in communications. Mutual interference between different systems should be analyzed and mitigated before their deployment. The paper focuses on two aspects that have an impact on the system performance. First, the coexistence analysis, i.e. evaluating the mutual interference. Second aspect is the coexistence techniques, i.e. appropriate system modifications that guarantee the simultaneous use of the spectrum by different technologies. In particular, the coexistence problem is analyzed between ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB) and narrow bandwidth (NB) systems emphasizing the role of spectrum sensing to identify and classify the NB interferers that mostly affect the performance of UWB system. A direct sequence (DS)-time hopping (TH) code design technique is used to mitigate the identified NB interference. Due to the severe effect of Narrowband Interference on UWB communications, we propose an UWB transceiver that utilizes spectrum-sensing techniques together with mitigation techniques. The proposed transceiver improves both the UWB and NB systems performance by adaptively reducing the mutual interference. Detection and avoidance method is used where spectrum is sensed every time duration to detect the NB interferer's frequency location and power avoiding it's effect by using the appropriate mitigation technique. Two scenarios are presented to identify, classify, and mitigate NB interferers.

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is a system to system or environment to system phenomenon. The literature survey proved that the Randomized Pulse Width Modulation (RPWM) technique is a promising technique to reduce EMI. A new Constant Trailing Edge, Randomized Pulse Width Modulation (CTERPWM) technique is proposed in this paper. The effect of the proposed RPWM technique for mitigation of conducted-EMI on Cuk converter operating in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) is simulated and tested. In this paper, the analytical expressions for the Power Spectral Density (PSD) are derived for the proposed RPWM technique and are validated by experimental measurements. The effectiveness of the proposed RPWM technique on the mitigation of conducted-EMI is verified comparing simulation and experimental results and it is identified that both the results are almost similar with allowable experimental deviations. The comparative investigation proves that the proposed RPWM technique can mitigate and spread the dominant peaks of conducted-EMI over the complete spectrum for the Cuk converter. Based on the investigation the CTERPWM technique is recommended for adoption.

Owing to the insufficient satellite resources such as frequency and orbit, the interest in the sharing of these resources has been increasing. ITU-R has been studying on the power limitation, the interference mitigation techniques etc. in order to facilitate the frequency sharing between different systems. Therefore, we studied on the interference mitigation techniques between HEO FSS system and GSO FSS network. We performed the simulation using four mitigation techniques and, based on the results of simulation, evaluated these techniques.

LTE/LTE-adv. 서비스 도입에 따라 높은 데이터 전송률을 요하는 다양한 서비스들이 제공되면서 모바일 트래픽은 더욱 가파르게 증가하고 있다. 이러한 트래픽 수요의 폭발적인 증가에 대응하기 위한 새로운 주요 기술로 소형셀 기술이 각광받고 있다. 소형셀 기술은 셀 반경을 현격히 줄여서 소형 기지국의 수를 증가시킴으로써 수용 가능한 트래픽 양을 늘릴 수 있다. 본 논문은 동종네트워크의 outdoor 환경에서 소형셀 도입에 따른 셀 치밀화(cell densification) 효과에 대해 셀 분할 효과와 단위 면적당 UE 수를 별도로 고려하여 SINR(Signal to Interference-Noise Ratio)과 UE(User Equipment)당 평균 수율 변화를 분석하였다. 또한 셀이 소형화되면 셀 간 간격이 좁아지면서 인접셀 간 간섭이 심화되어 SINR이 열화되기 때문에 본 논문은 간섭 제어가 적절하게 이루어졌을 때의 SINR 이득을 보임으로써 소형셀 환경에서의 간섭 제거 기법의 효과를 검증하였다.

WCDMA 순방향 링크에서 높은 레벨의 변조 방식을 사용하여 고속의 패킷 데이터 전송을 가능하게 하기 위해서는 다중 경로 간섭의 제거가 반드시 필요하다. 이러한 이유에서 Kenichi Higuchi는 WCDMA 순방향 링크에 의 다중 경로 간섭 제거기를 제안하였다. 그러나 이 논문에서는 코드 정보를 알 수 없는 다른 사용자들의 코드 채널을 순방향 전송 신호에 포함시키지 않은 신호 모델을 사용하였다. 다중 사용자 환경에서의 이러한 코드 채널들에 의한 간섭은 다중 경로 간섭 제거기의 성능을 매우 저하시킨다. 따라서 본 논문은 OVSF 코드 특성을 이용하여 셀 내의 모든 코드 채널에 의해 발생되는 다중 경로 간섭을 제거하는 기법을 제안한다. 모의실험 결과 제안한 알고리즘은 WCDMA 순방향 링크에서 높은 레벨의 변조 방식을 사용 가능하게 하여 기존의 RAKE 수신기와 다중 경로 간섭 제거기에 비해 매우 우수한 throughput 성능을 나타냄을 볼 수 있다.

Recently much attention has been paid for interference mitigation technique for the COMA system, since more capacity is available with same bandwidth. In this paper, we introduces a novel adaptive interference suppression techniques for the CDMA system with narrow band interference. The proposed interference rejection scheme employs the adaptive linear prediction techniques in the subband. In each subband, we can more easily find and cancel the narrow band signal as compared to the full band. Thus, the proposed interference rejection can be classified as another time-frequency techniques for the narrow band interference rejection(10). Computer simulation is conducted for the 3-G COMA system with IF band sampling techniques, yielding better interference rejection and bit error rate performance as compared to conventional one. Also, optimum filter is analyzed and from the analysis, it can be shown the subband prediction techniques can suppress narrow band interference more efficiently.

In this paper, we propose the efficient impulsive noise mitigation scheme for power line communication (PLC) systems in smart grid applications. The proposed scheme estimates the channel impulsive noise information of receiver by applying machine learning. Then, the estimated impulsive noise is updated in data base. In the modulator, the impulsive noise which reduces the PLC performance is effectively mitigated through proposed technique. As an impulsive noise model, Middleton Class A interference model was employed. The performance is evaluated in terms of bit error rate (BER). From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the proposed scheme has better BER performance compared to the conventional model. As a result, the proposed noise mitigation improves the signal quality of PLC systems by effectively removing the channel noise. The results of the paper can be applied to PLC systems for smart grid.

새로운 서비스의 출현 및 스펙트럼 부족으로 인하여 기존 무선통신 서비스와의 주파수 공유가 매우 중요하다. 향후 IMT 서비스에 할당된 후보대역 중 C 대역(3400-4200MHz)은 기존에 FSS 서비스에서 활발히 이용되고 있어 유해한 간섭이 예상된다. 본 논문에서는 향후 IMT 서비스와 기존 FSS 서비스간의 주파수 공유를 평가하기 위해, 다수의 IMT 기지국들로부터 FSS 지구국에 수신되는 간섭 대 잡음전력비(I/N)을 구하여 I/N=-10dB 간섭보호 기준치에 의한 IMT 서비스 커버리지와 FSS 지구국간의 최소 분리거리를 파라미터로 두시스템간의 주파수 공유기준을 제시한다. 특히 IMT 기지국에 MIMO SDMA 간섭경감기법을 적용함으로써 I/N 값을 획기적으로 개선시켜 적절한 분리거리로 두 시스템의 주파수 공유가 가능함을 보인다.
