Abstract

In this paper, we consider the diversity combining method for multiple symbol differential detection (MSDD) over the slow fading diversity channel. Though the performance of the optimum maximum-likelihood sequence estimator for MSDD approaches the performance of maximal-ratio combining with differential encoding, the complexity increases exponentially as the size of MSDD block is increased. This new pre-combining method can make use of the efficient MSDD algorithm that has a complexity increasing linearly with the block length or MSDD. Thus, in many wireless scenarios where it is not possible to perform coherent detection. this pre-combined diversity MSDD can be applied to obtain substantial gain compare to conventional differential detection.

본 논문에서는 저속 페이딩 환경 하에서 다중 심볼 차동 복조기의 다이버시티 수신 방법에 대하여 연구한다. MSDD(Multiple Symbol Differential Detection)를 이용하여 다이버시티 수신을 할 경우 복조 블럭의 길이를 크게 할수록 차동 부호화된 MPSK의 Maxim -Ratio-Combining(MRC) 다이버시티 수신기 성능에 수렴하지만 복잡도가 지수적으로 증가하여 현실적으로 구현이 불가능하다. 본 논문에서는 MSDD 수신기에 입력하기 전에 수신 신호들을 정렬 시켜서 결합하는 pre-combining 방식을 제안하였다. 여기서 제안된 pre-combined MSDD 다이버시티 수신기는 준최적 수신기로서 수신기의 복잡도가 복조 블록의 길이에 선형적으로 증가하는 효율적인 MSDD 복조를 가능케 한다. 따라서 고속의 버스트 모뎀과 같이 동기 복조의 어려움이 있을 경우, 채널에 대한 정보에 의존치 않고도 다이버시티 수신을 할 수 있으며 기존의 차동 복조 방식에 비하여 큰 성능 향상을 보여준다.
