초록

본 논문에서는 ICT기반의 차상제어 시스템 구현을 위하여 열차와 지상시스템간 데이터 송수신을 위하여 OFDM 기반의 무선랜 (802.11a 및 p)을 적용한 수신기 설계 기술에 대해 연구하고 성능 평가를 통하여 적용가능성을 확인하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 기존 전송 포맷을 유지하고 coherent 복조를 가정하면 성능은 (주파수 오프셋의 영향을 무시할 경우) 수신단에서의 채널 추정 성능에 거의 전적으로 의존하게 될 것인데 기본적으로 Preamble을 이용한 1차 추정과 Decision directed mode로 동작하는 2차 추정을 모두 고려하여 수신 알고리즘을 설계해야 한다. 본 논문에서는, 높은 mobility를 고려하여 decision-directed mode로 동작 가능한 주파수 영역 등화기의 설계에 초점을 두고 알고리즘 설계 및 성능 평가를 수행하였다.

In this paper, we study receiver design issue to apply the OFDM based WLAN specification, such as 802.11p, to the communications in high speed mobile environment, e.g., for the ICT based railroad control on a train having its speed up to 300 km/hr. To successfully apply the existing WLAN specifications without modifying its transmission format, the performance at the receiver will solely depends on the channel estimation performance if we ignore the affect of frequency offset With a speed of multiple hundred km/hr, the channel estimation using only the preamble will not provide enough precision since the channel changes so fast. Therefore, in this paper, taking the high mobility into account, we focus on the design of decision directed channel estimation and equalization techniques and perform simulations to evaluate and compare their performances and to finally confirm the applicability of the existing WLAN specification to the systems with very high mobility.
