Correlation between ICI and the carrier signal in OFDM under Doppler spread influence
[[abstract]]In this paper, we derive an exact expression for the power correlation between the inter-carrier interference (ICI) and the carrier signal and show that the correlation is non-negligible for normal Doppler spread values. However, the correlation tends to vanish as Doppler spread approaches infinity. Then, the symbol error rates (SERs) for M-QAM OFDM systems over frequency-selective Ricean fading channels based on both the correlated and the uncorrelated ICI models are given for comparison.[[conferencetype]]國際[[conferencedate]]20090409~20040411[[iscallforpapers]]Y[[conferencelocation]]Antalya, Turke

Laboratory and field trials evaluation of transmit delay Diversity applied to DVB-T/H networks
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.The requirements for future DVB-T/H networks demand that broadcasters design and
deploy networks that provide ubiquitous reception in challenging indoors and other
obstructed situations. It is essential that such networks are designed cost-effectively and with minimized environmental impact. The use of transmit diversity techniques with
multiple antennas have long been proposed to improve the performance and capacity of
wireless systems. Transmit diversity exploits the scattering effect inherent in the channel by means of transmitting multiple signals in a controlled manner from spatially separated antennas, allowing independently faded signals to arrive at the receiver and improves the chances of decoding a signal of acceptable quality. Transmit diversity can complement receive diversity by adding an additional diversity gain and in situations where receiver diversity is not practical, transmit diversity alone delivers a comparable amount of diversity gain. Transmit Delay Diversity (DD) can be applied to systems employing the
DVB standard without receiver equipment modifications. Although transmit DD can
provide a gain in NLOS situations, it can introduce degradation in LOS situation. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the effectiveness in real-word applications of novel diversity techniques for broadcast transmitter networks. Tests involved laboratory experiments using a wireless MIMO channel emulator and the deployment of a field measurement campaign dedicated to driving, indoor and rooftop reception. The relationship between the diversity gain, the propagation environment and several parameters such as the transmit antenna separation, the receiver speed and the Forward Error Correction Codes (FEC) configuration are investigated. Results includes the effect of real-word parameter usually not modeled in the software simulation analysis, such as antenna radiation patterns and mutual coupling, scattering vegetation impact, non-Gaussian noise sources and receiver implementation. Moreover, a practical analysis of the effectiveness of experimental techniques to mitigate the loss due to transmit DD loss in rooftop reception is presented. The results of this thesis confirmed, completed and extended the existing predictions with real word measurement results
Detection and decoding algorithms of multi-antenna diversity techniques for terrestrial DVB systems
This PhD dissertation analyzes the behavior of multi-antenna diversity techniques in broadcasting scenarios of TDT (terrestrial digital television) systems and proposes a low-complexity detection and decoding design for their practical implementation. For that purpose, the transmission-reception chains of the European DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial) and DVB-T2 standards have been implemented over which diversity and MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) techniques have been assessed through Monte Carlo simulations.
On one hand, the most important multi-antenna diversity techniques such as CDD (cyclic delay diversity), Alamouti code-based SFBC (space-frequency block coding) and MRC (maximum ratio combining), have been evaluated in a DVB-T system over both fixed and mobile Rayleigh and Ricean channels. With the DVB-T2 standard release, multi-antenna processing has actually been introduced in digital television systems. The distributed SFBC configuration proposed in DVB-T2 is analyzed from a performance point of view considering different propagation conditions in an SFN (single frequency network).
On the other hand, error-performance and detection complexity analyses of 2x2 FRFD (full-rate full-diversity) SFBCs are carried out for last-generation DTV (digital television) systems. The use of channel coding based on LDPC (low-density parity check) codes in new standards such as DVB-T2, involves a soft-output MAP (maximum a posteriori ) detection which results in an increase of the detection complexity. In order to study the FRFD codes behavior in such a BICM (bit-interleaved coded modulation) scheme, the Golden code, which achieves the maximum coding gain, and the Sezginer-Sari code, which has a lower inherent detection complexity as an expense of sacrificing performance gain, have been chosen. Using LSD (list sphere decoder) detection, BER (bit error rate) performance and computational cost results are provided for TDT scenarios.
In order to overcome the variable complexity of the LSD, LFSD (list fixed-complexity sphere decoder) detection is proposed for practical implementations. A redesign of the previously proposed LFSD algorithm for spatial multiplexing MIMO systems has been performed for FRFD SFBCs with close-to-LSD performance. Furthermore, an analysis of the number of candidates is carried out in order to maximize the eficiency of the algorithm. Due to its fixed complexity, the novel algorithm can be fully pipelined making feasible a realistic implementation in chip.Esta tesis analiza el comportamiento de las técnicas de diversidad multiantena en escenarios de radiodifusión TDT (televisión digital terrestre) y propone un diseño de baja complejidad para la detección de códigos SFBC (space-frequency block coding ) que facilita una posible implementación práctica. Para ello, se ha implementado la cadena de transmisión-recepción de los estándares europeos DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial ) y DVB-T2 como entorno de trabajo donde se han incluido y simulado diferentes técnicas de diversidad MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output ).
Por un lado, se evalúan las técnicas de diversidad multiantena CDD ( cyclic delay diversity), SFBC con codi cación Alamouti y MRC (maximum ratio combining ) en escenarios fijos y móviles de canales tanto Rayleigh como Ricean para el sistema DVB-T. En DVB-T2, se analiza la tecnología multiantena propuesta por el estándar para diferentes escenarios de propagación dentro de redes SFN (single frequency network ).
Por otro lado, se realiza un estudio sobre códigos FRFD (full-rate full-diversity ) SFBC para su posible inclusión en futuros estándares de televisión digital. El uso de codificaciones de canal más potentes, como los códigos LDPC (low-density parity check ), implica la utilización de una detección MAP (maximum a posteriori ) con salida soft, incrementando considerablemente la complejidad de la detección. Para realizar el correspondiente análisis de complejidad y rendimiento, se han escogidos dos códigos FRFD. Por un lado, el código Golden, que ofrece la máxima ganancia de código y, por otro, el código propuesto por Sezginer y Sari, que consigue reducir la complejidad de detección a costa de perder cierta ganancia de código. Se presentan resultados basados en curvas de BER (bit error rate) y número de operaciones
sobre un sistema BICM (bit-interleaved coded modulation ) equivalente a DVB-T2 en escenarios TDT utilizando una detección LSD (list sphere decoder ).
Para resolver el problema de la complejidad variable del algoritmo LSD, se realiza un rediseño del ya propuesto LFSD (list fixed-complexity sphere decoder ) para técnicas de multiplexación espacial considerando la estructura de los códigos FRFD SFBC. Asimismo, se evalúa el número de candidatos que ofrece un funcionamiento más eficiente con menor coste computacional. Los resultados de simulación basados en curvas de BER muestran rendimientos cercanos al detector LSD manteniendo el número de operaciones constante. Por lo tanto, este nuevo diseño permite su eficiente y práctica implementación en dispositivos reales.Doktoretza-tesi honen gai nagusia Lurreko Telebista Digitalerako antena anitzeko dibertsitate tekniken portaera ikertzea da, hartzailerako konplexutasun baxuko algoritmoen diseinua oinarri hartuta.

Performance evaluation of fixed WiMax physical layer under high fading channels
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.A radio channel characteristic modelling is essential in every network planning. This project deals with the performance of WiMax networks in an outdoor environment while using fading channel models. The radio channels characteristics are analyzed by simulations have been done using Matlab programming. Stanford University Interim(SUI) Channels set was proposed to simulate the fixed broadband wireless access channel environments where IEEE 802.16d is to be deployed. It has six channel models that are grouped into three categories according to three typical different outdoor Terrains, in order to give a comprehensive study of fading channels on the overall performance of the system, WiMax system has been tested under SUI channels that modified into account for 30o directional antennas, with 90% cell coverage and with 99.9% reliability in its geographical covered area. Furthermore, in order to combat the fading which occurs in urban areas and improve the capacity and the throughput of the system, multiples antennas at both ends of communication link are used, the transmission gain obtained when using multiple antennas instead of only a single antenna. Space-time coding and maximum ratio combining for more than one transmit and receive antenna is implemented to allow performance investigations in various MIMO scenarios. It has been concluded that uses multiple antennas at the receiver offers a significant improvement of 3 dB of gain in the channel SNR. This thesis also contain implementation of all compulsory features of the WiMax OFDM physical layer specified in IEEE 802.16-2004 using Matlab coding. In order to combat the temporal variations in quality on a multipath fading channel, an adaptive modulation technique is used. This technique employs multiple modulation schemes to instantaneously adapt to the variations in the channel SNR, thus maximizing the system throughput and improving BER performance. WiMax transceiver has been tested with and without encoding and studied the effect of encoding on multipath channel. Testing the system with flexible channel bandwidth has been part of this thesis. Finally it has been explained in this thesis the affect of increasing the size of cyclic prefix on overall performance of WiMax system
Analysis and Performance Comparison of DVB-T and DTMB Systems for Terrestrial Digital TV
Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) is the most popular
transmission technology in digital terrestrial broadcasting (DTTB), adopted by
many DTTB standards. In this paper, the bit error rate (BER) performance of two
DTTB systems, namely cyclic prefix OFDM (CP-OFDM) based DVB-T and time domain
synchronous OFDM (TDS-OFDM) based DTMB, is evaluated in different channel
conditions. Spectrum utilization and power efficiency are also discussed to
demonstrate the transmission overhead of both systems. Simulation results show
that the performances of the two systems are much close. Given the same ratio
of guard interval (GI), the DVB-T outperforms DTMB in terms of signal to noise
ratio (SNR) in Gaussian and Ricean channels, while DTMB behaves better
performance in Rayleigh channel in higher code rates and higher orders of
constellation thanks to its efficient channel coding and interleaving scheme
An Investigation of Orthogonal Wavelet Division Multiplexing Techniques as an Alternative to Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex Transmissions and Comparison of Wavelet Families and Their Children
Recently, issues surrounding wireless communications have risen to prominence because of the increase in the popularity of wireless applications. Bandwidth problems, and the difficulty of modulating signals across carriers, represent significant challenges. Every modulation scheme used to date has had limitations, and the use of the Discrete Fourier Transform in OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) is no exception. The restriction on further development of OFDM lies primarily within the type of transform it uses in the heart of its system, Fourier transform. OFDM suffers from sensitivity to Peak to Average Power Ratio, carrier frequency offset and wasting some bandwidth to guard successive OFDM symbols. The discovery of the wavelet transform has opened up a number of potential applications from image compression to watermarking and encryption. Very recently, work has been done to investigate the potential of using wavelet transforms within the communication space. This research will further investigate a recently proposed, innovative, modulation technique, Orthogonal Wavelet Division Multiplex, which utilises the wavelet transform opening a new avenue for an alternative modulation scheme with some interesting potential characteristics. Wavelet transform has many families and each of those families has children which each differ in filter length. This research consider comprehensively investigates the new modulation scheme, and proposes multi-level dynamic sub-banding as a tool to adapt variable signal bandwidths. Furthermore, all compactly supported wavelet families and their associated children of those families are investigated and evaluated against each other and compared with OFDM. The linear computational complexity of wavelet transform is less than the logarithmic complexity of Fourier in OFDM. The more important complexity is the operational complexity which is cost effectiveness, such as the time response of the system, the memory consumption and the number of iterative operations required for data processing. Those
complexities are investigated for all available compactly supported wavelet families and their children and compared with OFDM. The evaluation reveals which wavelet families perform more effectively than OFDM, and for each wavelet family identifies which family children perform the best. Based on these results, it is concluded that the wavelet modulation scheme has some interesting advantages over OFDM, such as lower complexity and bandwidth conservation of up to 25%, due to the elimination of guard intervals and dynamic bandwidth allocation, which result in better cost effectiveness
Dual-Polarization OFDM-OQAM Wireless Communication System
In this paper we describe the overall idea and results of a recently proposed
radio access technique based on filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) communication
system using two orthogonal polarizations: dual-polarization FBMC (DP-FBMC).
Using this system we can alleviate the intrinsic interference problem in FBMC
systems. This enables use of all the multicarrier techniques used in
cyclic-prefix orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) systems for
channel equalization, multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) processing, etc.,
without using the extra processing required for conventional FBMC. DP-FBMC also
provides other interesting advantages over CP-OFDM and FBMC such as more
robustness in multipath fading channels, and more robustness to receiver
carrier frequency offset (CFO) and timing offset (TO). For DP-FBMC we propose
three different structures based on different multiplexing techniques in time,
frequency, and polarization. We will show that one of these structures has
exactly the same system complexity and equipment as conventional FBMC. In our
simulation results DP-FBMC has better bit error ratio (BER) performance in
dispersive channels. Based on these results, DP-FBMC has potential as a
promising candidate for future wireless communication systems.Comment: 1.This paper is accepted to be published in IEEE Vehicular Technology
