2009 International Conference on Communication Software and Networks Impact of Doppler on high speed UAV OFDM System ‘He Jian School of Electronics and Information Technology Northwestern Polytechnical University Xi’an, China doc _he(@mail nwpu.edu.ca Abstract—To implement the large-capacity data traffic on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAY), sufficient research on UAV communication channel and its effect on OFDM communication system must be performed. This paper analyzed the communication channel models of UAV under several scenarios, and gave the impact of ICI on performance of OFDM system in different scenarios, Moreover, this paper analyzed the relationship between ICI and subcarrier interval, which can help designer to develop new way of channel equalization and liminating ICI. Keywords—high speed UAV; OFDM; Doppler expansion; signal to interference ratio; Inter-Carver Interference 1 Intropucion OFDM signal requires strict orthogonality, and it is tend to be influenced by frequency offset and the channel variation. So, to implement the large-capacity data traffic on UAV, the UAV communication channel has tobe analyzed in detail, and its influence on OFDM communication. According 10 the results, right methods of channel equalization and ICI cancellation can be developed. ‘More researches are interested in aeronautic channel model and OFDM system for high speed vehicle. in [1}, on the basis of the developed aeronautical channel model, the impact of ICL and noise on channel estimation was analyzed. A UAV channel statistical model was discussed in (2). Inthe paper, the impulse response of channel was obtained. There were three channel scenarios discussed and the parameters of channel were obtained through theoretical analysis. The influence of doppler ‘expansion on OFDM communication was analyzed in [3], but ‘only Rayleigh channel was studied, The rectangular doppler spectrum was chosen. The influence of fast-varing frequency-selective channel to the multi-carrier communication ‘was discussed in [4]. Widesense stationary uncorrelated scattering (WSUS) channel model was used in the paper, but the model parameters were not suitable for aeronautic communication channel. The characteristics of aeronautic communication channel were introduced in detail in 5], and a theoretical model of aeronautic channel was developed. The ‘model consisted of four scenarios and the relative parameters ‘were presented. ‘This work is mppored by the Specialized Research Fund forthe Doctoral ‘Program of Higher Education of Chia uade rast No. 20060699010 and the Aeronautical Science Foundation of China under Grast No, 20072053030. {9180-1695.3522-7709 $25.00 © 2009 TEEE OI 10.1108/10C3N.200937 ™m Zhang Yue-tong ‘School of Telecommunication Engineering, AFEU Xi'an, China fire_comet@163.com Notation: In this paper, the superscripts )" and (*)"" denote complex conjugate, transpose, and Hermitian transpose, respectively; diag(x) is a diagonal matrix with x on its main diagonal; Efe} stands for cexpectations;[¢] stands for getting integer part; (#)y stands for Mod N; Fy stands for N point DFT matrix; I, stands for an LxL identity matrix. TL UAV COMMUNICATION CHANNEL The UAV communication channel can be devieded into ‘four types as Parking, Taxi, Arrival and En-route scenario. ‘The En-route scenario is applied when the UAV is airborne. This multi-path channel consists of an LOS path as well as a cluster of reflected, delayed paths. Therefore, the scenario may bbe characterized by a two-ray model. The direct path is proposed to be modeled as a constant process and the diffuse channel component as a Rayleigh process. The relative speed of transmitter and receiver will be high enough atthe scenario. ‘The channel model is showed in Fig.1.
