چکیده
–One of the essential components of recent communications is Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). Handling bad conditions, high bandwidth and using the available spectral efficiently are some of its characteristics. Hence, it has replaced old communication technologies in many systems such as wireless networks and 4G mobile communications. In this paper, Effects of fading channels on OFDM are investigated. MATLAB is used to simulate wireless fading channels environments that are either based on Doppler spread or Delay Spread. Key Words–– OFDM, ISI, BER, PSNRs

Using WPT as a New Method Instead of FFT for Improving the Performance of OFDM Modulation
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is used in order to provide immunity against very hostile multipath channels in many modern communication systems.. The OFDM technique divides the total available frequency bandwidth into several narrow bands. In conventional OFDM, FFT algorithm is used to provide orthogonal subcarriers. Intersymbol interference (ISI) and intercarrier interferen...

متن کاملA Blind Hammerstein Diversity Combining Technique for Flat Fading Channels
Diversity combining techniques play an important role in combating the destructive effects of channel fading in wireless communication systems. In this work we present a blind diversity combining technique for Rayleigh flat fading channels based on Hammerstein type filters. We show that the performance of this technique is very close to ideal MRC system which is accepted as an optimum receiver ...
متن کاملTime-Varying Frequency Fading Channel Tracking In OFDM-PLNC System, Using Kalman Filter
Physical-layer network coding (PLNC) has the ability to drastically improve the throughput of multi-source wireless communication systems. In this paper, we focus on the problem of channel tracking in a Decode-and-Forward (DF) OFDM PLNC system. We proposed a Kalman Filter-based algorithm for tracking the frequency/time fading channel in this system. Tracking of the channel is performed in the t...
