PM employs polarization domain to represent information, which is different from the conventional dual polarization spatial multiplexing (SM) or space time block coding (STBC) schemes in MSB. At any transmission instant, only one polarized antenna is activated, which avoids cross polarization interference and mitigates the possibility of inter-beam interference. A fair system performance evaluation is taken between PM and SM schemes for both single-satellite and dual-satellite cases with practical MIMO land mobile satellite (LMS) channel models. The simulation results show that for same spectral efficiency the proposed PM scheme outperforms SM in different MSB system settings.","PeriodicalId":164534,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Wireless Symposium (IWS 2015)","volume":"131 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123416935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This technique is based on a new approach modelling the PA behavior. The latter characterizes not only the PA non-linearities and memory effects but also its highly-varying behavior with carrier frequency in CR context. Given this modelling, a Kalman algorithm based post-distortion and detection is used to compensate the CR-PA non-linear effect and restore the input signal. This method is suitable for uplink communications in CR context because it saves the consumed power at the transmitter. Finally, this on-line technique does not require known test signals to estimate the PA model parameters.","PeriodicalId":164534,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Wireless Symposium (IWS 2015)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132193864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three kinds of microwave passive devices, namely, directional coupler, N type coaxial adapter and microstrip line, are measured by the PIM test setup in the 900MHz band. To obtain systematical experimental results, the power levels of the two carriers are tuned in the following three ways: 1. Keep the two carriers with equal amplitude and simultaneously increase both of them; 2. Keep one of the carriers constant and increase the other carrier; 3. Keep the sum of the two carrier power constant and change their ratio. Enlightened by the classic polynomial theory of intermodulation, an empirical equation based on polynomial is proposed to describe the relationship between input carrier power and PIM product. It is found that the empirical equation describes the measurement data very well with the fitting parameters in the equation vary for different devices. The empirical equation can be used as a simple tool of PIM evaluation when engineers tackle problems on site.","PeriodicalId":164534,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Wireless Symposium (IWS 2015)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115399526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
