Abstract

In this paper, we propose and design IBFD system based on DCR. And then, we analyze effect of DC offset by self-interference in the proposed system. Also, we evaluate BER performance of the proposed system according to DC offset. As a result of the simulation, we can confirm that when the self-interference is not completely cancelled by the RF cancellation, linearity of desired signal and self-interference is distorted by DC offset. Also, in the proposed system using m-QAM modulation, DC offsets of multi-level are caused by self-interference with m-QAM modulation. As a result, constellations of desired signal and self-interference are greatly distorted. In contrast, in the proposed system using m-PSK modulation, DC offset of single level is caused by self-interference with m-PSK modulation. In this condition, we confirm that distortion of constellations of desired signal and self-interference is less than when using m-QAM modulation. That is, we can confirm that m-PSK modulation is effective than m-QAM modulation in DCR based IBFD system. Also, we can confirm that it is important to cancel self-interference as much as possible in RF-stage.

본 논문에서는 DCR 구조의 IBFD 시스템을 설계하고 제안하는 시스템에서 자기 간섭 신호에 의한 DC offset 영향이 신호에 미치는 영향과 그에 따른 전체적인 시스템의 성능 특성을 분석한다. 시뮬레이션의 결과로 자기 간섭 신호가 RF cancellation에의해 완전히 제거되지 않고 다양한 크기로 DCR 구조의 수신 시스템에 인가되었을 경우, 상대국에서 보낸 수신 신호를 왜곡할 뿐만 아니라, 자기 간섭 신호 자체의 선형 특성을 왜곡시키는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 또한, 이러한 자기 간섭 신호에 의한 DC offset은 m-QAM의 변조에서 보다 다양한 레벨로 나타나기 때문에 m-QAM으로 변조된 자기 간섭 신호의 경우, 전체적인 심볼의 성좌도 형상을 크게 왜곡시키는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 이와 대조적으로 모든 심볼의 크기가 동일한 m-PSK로 변조된 자기 간섭 신호에 의한 DC offset은 단일 레벨로 나타나기 때문에, 전체적인 심볼의 성좌도 형상은 잘 유지되어 선형성이 잘 유지되는 것을 확인하였다. 즉, DCR 구조의 IBFD 시스템에서 m-PSK 변조가 m-QAM 변조에 비하여 보다 효과적인 것을 확인할 수 있다.
