Abstract

To cope with the explosive growth of traffic which is considered as one of the most biggest threat to current mobile communication systems, various solutions such as small cell and device-to-device communication have been exploited. Directional transmission in which transmission power of base station is focused onto the direction where the mobile station is located, can be used to increase throughput of the system. In this work, we develop a system-level simulator for cellular mobile communication systems using directional transmission and adaptive interference estimation scheme for directional transmission has been proposed. By using the developed simulator, the performance of cellular mobile communication systems with directional transmission is examined. Moreover, it is shown that the overall throughput of cellular system can be improved by utilizing directional transmission.

현재 셀룰러 이동통신 시스템이 직면한 가장 큰 문제인 데이터 트래픽 폭증 수용문제를 효율적으로 해결하기 위한 방안으로써 스몰셀 및 단말간 통신 등 다양한 기술 등이 제안되고 있다. 이러한 데이터 트래픽 폭증 문제를 해결하기 위한 방안중 하나로써 기지국의 전송 파워를 서비스 받는 단말로 집중시키는 방향성 전송이 고려되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 셀룰러 이동통신 시스템에서 방향성 전송을 고려한 시스템 레벨 시뮬레이터를 개발하였고 방향성 전송이 사용될 때의 어려움 중 하나인 간섭 예측을 해결하기 위한 새로운 간섭 예측방안을 제안하였다. 본 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 제안된 적응적 간섭 예측 방안의 성능을 확인하였고 방향성 전송이 셀룰러 이동통신 시스템에서 활용될 때의 성능을 살펴보았다. 이를 통해 방향성 전송이 셀룰러 이동통신 시스템의 수율을 130% 이상 향상시킬 수 있음을 보였다.
