The fundamental reason of this ...Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems suffer from performance deterioration when the length of Cyclic Prefix (CP) is shorter than the Channel Impulse Response (CIR). The fundamental reason of this impairment is the InterCarrier Interference (ICI) and Inter- Symbol Interference (ISI) introduced by the excessive multipath delay. Specifically, Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) beamforming is helpful in cancelling such interference since it can spatially suppress some of the multipath. In this paper, we propose an ICI eliminating beamforming scheme employing a per-tone processing approach, thus with moderate computational complexity. The ISI is removed by using a simple decision feedback equalizer, while the optimal steering and combining vectors are then derived to maximize the Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR). This method not only achieves the beamforming benefit, but also significantly alleviates the ICI. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively reduce the system Symbol Error Rate (SER), per- mitting good performance for multipath delay profiles that would break conventional links.展开更多

In this paper, cyclic prefix (CP) can be used as a source of channel information which is originally used to reduce inter symbol interference (ISI). Based on this CP observation, we propose two cross coupled dual Kalman filters to track the channel variations without additional training sequences. One Kalman filter AR parameter estimation and another for fading channel estimation.展开更多

We take the component instead of the entire name as a key in the hash functions. The SMH method achieves lookup speeds of 21. 45 and 20. 87 Mbps on prefix table with 2 million and 3. 6 million names,respectively. The proposed method is the fastest of the four methods considered and requires 61.63 and 89.17 Mb of memory on the prefix tables with 2 million and 3. 6 million names,respectively. The required memory is slightly larger than the best method. The scalability of SMH outperforms that of the other two methods.展开更多

In this paper, the MC-CDMA system is interpreted as an equivalent time-domain DS-CD-MA system with specific spreading codes. Then, an equivalently time-domain blind channel estimator is derived for the uplink MC-CDMA, which is based on second-order statistics of the received data. By exploiting singular value decomposition (SVD) and the finite alphabet property of transmitted symbols, the time-domain channel impulse response (CIR) for the uplink MC-CDMA can be accurately identified. Computer simulations illustrate both the validity and the overall performance of the proposed estimator.展开更多
