چکیده

Abs t rac t For a clipped channel with a Gaussian input, a predistortionlrestoration technique to reduce clipping-induced nonlinear distortion is proposed and analyzed. The input signal is processed by a nonlinear predistorter circuit, reducing the probability of clipping. The receiver output signal passes through a restorer having the inverse transfer characteristic, which yields the original signal. For both one-sided and two-sided limiter channels, the optimal predistortion curves are determined analytically. A limiter channel with Gaussian input may be used to model clipping-induced nonlinear distortion in opticalfiber common antenna television (CATV) distribution systems using multiple intensity-modulated subcarriers. When applied to an amplitude-modulated vestigial-sideband (AM-VSB) CATV system, the optimal predistortion curves yield sensitivity improvements of 5.3 and 4.4 dB for oneand two-sided limiter channels, respectively.

Application of Non-Linear Functions at Distribution of Output SINR Gaussian Interference Channels

We have examined the convergence behavior of the LSCMA in some simple environments. Algorithms such as Multi¬ Target CMA, Multistage CMA, and Iterative Least Squares with Projection can be used for this purpose. The results presented here can form a basis for analysis of these multi-signal extraction techniques. Clearly, the variance and distribution of output SINR obtained with the LSCMA is al...

Theoretical analysis and performance of OFDM signals in nonlinear AWGN channels

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) baseband signals may be modeled by complex Gaussian processes with Rayleigh envelope distribution and uniform phase distribution, if the number of carriers is sufficiently large. The output correlation function of instantaneous nonlinear amplifiers and the signal-to-distortion ratio can be derived and expressed in an easy way. As a consequence, ...

Theoretical analysis and performance of OFDM signals in nonlinear fading channels

This paper presents an analytical framework to calculate the average symbol-error rate (SER) of uncoded orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in realistic scenarios impaired by transmitter nonlinearity and frequency-selective fading channels. The results are applicable to cyclically extended OFDM signals characterized by a high number of carriers, which can be modeled as com...

Gaussian Z Channel with Intersymbol Interference

In this paper, we derive a capacity inner bound for a synchronous Gaussian Z channel with intersymbol interference (ISI) under input power constraints. This is done by converting the original channel model into an n-block memoryless circular Gaussian Z channel (n-CGZC) and successively decomposing the n-block memoryless channel into a series of independent parallel channels in the frequency dom...
