This paper proposes a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) eigenmode transmission technique which transmits different data streams on eigenmodes of different multi-path components while suppressing intra and inter-eigenmode interferences by means of a turbo equalization technique. This paper also evaluates the effectiveness of the proposed system in frequency selective fading conditions. Computer simulation results confirms the proposed technique is effective even in high spatial correlation cases.

This paper given an outline of the general purpose DASDSP (Development Assist System for Digital Signal Processing) which contains 8 DSP (Digital Signal Processor) boards. Each board can select external analog or digital signals and it is possible for DASDSP to perform the distributed processing. This system has a memory board for the purpose of debugging programs running in each DSP.

Research and standardization activities on FPLMTS are under way throughout the world. This paper shows recent study results on radio transmission technologies in ARIB (Association of Radio Industries and Businesses), which in the standardization organization in Japan. On-going study shows two TDMA based and four CDMA based radio transmission technologies under study. These technologies need to be further studied in detail. The proposal from ARIB is expected to be summarized around the end of the year 1996.

This paper proposes a spectrum-overlapped resource management (SORM) technique where each user equipment (UE) can ideally obtain the frequency selection diversity gain under multi-user environments. In the SORM technique for cellular systems, under assumption of adopting a soft canceller with minimum mean square error (SC/MMSE) turbo equalizer, an evolved node B (eNB) accepts overlapped frequency resource allocation. As a result, each UE can use the frequency bins having the highest channel gain. However, the SORM becomes non-orthogonal access when the frequency bins having high channel gain for UEs are partially identical. In this case, the inter-user interference (IUI) caused by overlapping spectra among UEs is eventually canceled out by using the SC/MMSE turbo equalizer. Therefore, SORM can achieve better performance than orthogonal access e.g. FDMA when the IUI is completely canceled. This paper demonstrates that SORM has the potential to improve transmission performance, by extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) analysis. Moreover, this paper evaluates the block error rate (BLER) performance of the SORM and the FDMA. Consequently, this paper shows that the SORM outperforms the FDMA.
