Abstract

Beamspace Multiple-Input Multiple Output(MIMO) system can transmit multiple data by using Electronically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator(ESPAR) antenna which has single Radio Frequency(RF)-chain. Beamspace MIMO system can reduce complexity of the system and size of antenna in comparison with the conventional MIMO system because of characteristic of ESPAR antenna using the single antenna and the RF-chain. Heretofore, only the research of transmitting single-carrier has been conducted by the use of beamspace MIMO system. Therefore, in this paper, we propose beamspace MIMO system based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) for transmitting the multi-carrier and analysis the performance of this system. We find a proper reactance value which has good performance because proposed system changes the performance by the reactance values of parasitic elements. and we confirm that performance of the proposed system is similar to conventional MIMO system based on OFDM.

빔 공간 Multiple-Input Multiple Output(MIMO) 시스템은 단일 Radio Frequency(RF)-체인을 가지는 Electronically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator(ESPAR) 안테나를 이용하여 다수의 데이터를 동시에 전송할 수 있는 시스템이다. 단일 안테나, 단일 RF-체인을 사용하는 ESPAR 안테나의 특성에 의해 빔 공간 MIMO 시스템은 기존 MIMO 시스템에 비해 시스템의 복잡도가 줄어들고 안테나의 소형화가 가능하다. 기존에는 빔 공간 MIMO 시스템을 사용하여 단일 반송파를 전송하는 연구만이 진행되었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 다중 반송파를 전송하기 위해 Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) 기반의 빔 공간 MIMO 시스템을 제안하고 성능을 분석하였다. 제안하는 빔 공간 MIMO 시스템은 기생소자의 리액턴스 값에 의해 Bit Error Rate(BER) 성능이 변화하기 때문에 최적의 성능을 가지는 리액턴스 값을 찾고, 이때의 BER 성능이 기존의 MIMO OFDM 시스템의 성능과 유사한 것을 확인하였다.
