초록

본 논문에서는 MIMO-OFDM 시스템에서 시간영역 훈련신호의 직교화를 통한 채널추정 방법을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 Jeon[8]이 제안한 방법을 그대로 송신 안테나 개수가 4개인 MIMO-OFDM 시스템으로 확장하였을 때 수신기에서 다중경로 지연신호로 인하여 훈련신호가 직교되는 않는 문제점이 있음을 보였다. 이러한 문제점에 대한 해결책으로 훈련신호 중앙에 보호구간을 삽입하는 새로운 훈련신호 발생 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법은 훈련신호들이 서로 직교하기 때문에 수신기에서 Walsh decoding sum기법을 통하여 시간영역에서 채널응답을 추정할 수 있음을 보였다.

In this paper, a channel estimation method by orthogonalizing of the time domain training signal in MIMO-OFDM systems is proposed. It has shown that Jeon's method[8] cannot be directly used in 4 Tx antenna MIMO-OFDM systems since the delayed Rx signals interfere the orthogonal property of the time domain training signals. As a possible solution to the problem, in this paper, a guard interval is inserted into the center of the training signals so that the orthogonal property between the Rx training signals can be maintained. It is shown by using computer simulations that the proposed method can estimate the channel response in time domain in 4 Tx antenna MIMO-OFDM systems.
