Abstract

Recently, the volume of mobile data traffic increases exponentially due to the emergence of various mobile services. In order to resolve the problem of mobile traffic increase, various new technologies have been devised. Especially, two-way relay communication in which two nodes can transfer data simultaneously through relay node, has gained lots of interests due to its capability to improve spectral efficiency. In this paper, we analyze the SM-PNC which combines Physical-layer Network Coding (PNC) and Spatial Modulation (SM) under two-way relay communication environment. Log-Likelihood Ratio (LLR) is considered and both separate decoding and direct decoding have been taken into account in performance analysis. Through performance evaluation, we have found that the bit error rate of the proposed scheme is improved compared to that of the conventional PNC scheme, especially when SNR is high and the number of antennas is large.

최근 다양한 모바일 서비스의 증가로 데이터 트래픽이 기하급수로 늘어나고 있고 트래픽 폭증문제를 해결하기 위해 다양한 기술들이 제안되고 있다. 특히 두 노드가 하나의 중계 노드를 통해 동시에 데이터를 주고받는 양방향 중계기술은 통신 시스템의 주파수 효율을 효과적으로 높일 수 있는 방식으로 주목받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 양방향 중계환경에서 물리계층 네트워크 코딩기술(Physical-layer Network Coding, PNC)과 Spatial Modulation (SM) 기술을 결합한 SM-PNC의 성능을 분석하였다. 제안하는 SM-PNC 기술에서는 Log-Likelihood Ratio ( LLR) 복호 방식을 적용하였고 통신시스템의 일반적인 안테나 구성을 고려해 Separate decoding과 Direct decoding 방식으로 나누어서 성능분석을 진행하였다. 일반적인 중계채널 환경에서의 성능분석을 통하여 SM-PNC방식이 기존의 PNC 기법보다 향상 된 비트오차율 성능($E_b/N_o$)을 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었고 특히 SNR이 높은 환경과 중계노드의 안테나수가 많을 경우 SM-PNC의 성능이 더 향상되는 것을 확인하였다.
