本論文依據超寬頻通訊系統中之多頻帶正交分頻多工(MB-OFDM)標準,提出兩種創新的多輸入多輸出-多頻帶正交分頻多工(MIMO-MB-OFDM)架構,並探討MB-OFDM在加入多輸入多輸出(MIMO)技術後能獲得那些利益。 我們首先建構MB-OFDM系統,以供MIMO-MB-OFDM系統比較效能之基準,接著提出兩種MIMO-MB-OFDM之新架構:塊狀時空碼-多頻帶正交分頻多工(STBC-MB-OFDM)與摺積碼-塊狀時空碼-多頻帶正交分頻多工(CSTBC-MB-OFDM)。模擬結果顯示,2I2O STBC-MB-OFDM系統能以較低之複雜度獲得兩倍於MB-OFDM之傳輸速率,CSTBC-MB-OFDM系統則可在非常低之SNR值中達到 之效能。因此,MIMO技術於MB-OFDM系統之應用確實可行,而且極具潛力。 最後,本論文也提出一種多配對天線-多頻帶正交分頻多工(MPA-MB-OFDM)架構,經推導可知,使用多工編碼的MPA-MB-OFDM系統可在M倍複雜度下,以相同錯誤率得到M倍於MB-OFDM之傳輸速率,因此,MPA-MB-OFDM系統亦具可行性。
This study presents two novel MIMO-MB-OFDM systems based on the latest UWB proposal. The benefits that the MB-OFDM system can gain by incorporating MIMO technique are also explored. First, an MB-OFDM system is constructed as a baseline for performance comparison. We next propose two novel MIMO-MB-OFDM systems, which include STBC-MB-OFDM and CSTBC-MB-OFDM. Simulation results show that the 2I2O STBC-MB-OFDM can achieve two times the transmission rate of the MB-OFDM with lower complexity and the CSTBC-MB-OFDM can yield bit error rate of with very low SNR. Therefore, this research verifies the applicability and potential of MIMO to MB-OFDM system. Finally, an MPA-MB-OFDM system is also proposed. Derivational results indicate that the MPA-MB-OFDM is able to acquire M times the transmission rate of MB- OFDM at the expense of M times complexity while maintains the same bit error rate.
