Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been an effective technique to combat multipath fading in wireless communications. It has been successfully used for HF radio applications and has been chosen as the standard for digital audio broadcasting and digital terrestrial TV broadcasting in Europe and high-speed wireless local areas networks. In this paper an overview of a multiple c...

Multiple input multiple output-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing-code division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM-CDM) techniques are considered to improve the link reliability/spectral efficiency of very high data rate communication systems. In particular, lattice-reduction-aided receivers are proposed for MIMO-OFDM-CDM systems. Simulation results show that the proposed receivers significantly o...

Visible light communication (VLC) system for small range transmission uses visible spectrum which provides illumination simultaneously. Designing cost of light emitting diodes was reduced in order to make this communication possible. A modulation technique which can effectively employ the bandwidth is orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technique. This technique has a unique form ...

Abstract: Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) combined with time division multiplexing (TDM) can bridge the conventional OFDM and single carrier (SC) transmission by using minimum mean square error (MMSE) frequencydomain equalization (FDE). The channel frequency-selectivity can be exploited by MMSE-FDE to improve the bit error rate (BER) performance. A much better BER performance ...

In this paper, an OFDM-CDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing code division multiplexing) system with adaptive symbol mapping is presented. This combination enables a robust transmission with flexible error protection and data rate adaptation for parallel data streams by exploiting additional diversity due to CDM. Performance results are presented for fading channels where OFDMCDM with...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is multiplexing technology of orthogonal multicarrier, and the channel estimation model based on pilot in OFDM systems is analyzed; Now that, the channel estimation based on pilot needs interpolation, in order to reduce the complexity of the interpolation algorithm, the FFT channel estimation algorithm based on pilot is studied. Because of the d...

Abstract: Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing combined with time division multiplexing (OFDM/TDM) was proposed to overcome the high peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) of conventional OFDM. Clipping and filtering can be used to further reduce the PAPR. OFDM/TDM with minimum mean square error (MMSE) frequency-domain equalization (FDE) requires accurate channel estimation (CE). In this pape...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is sensitive to the carrier frequency offset (CFO). We introduce the Peak Interference-to-Carrier Ratio (PICR) to measure the resulting intercarrier interference (ICI). This paper shows that PICR can be reduced by Partial Transmit Sequence (PTS) and Selected Mapping (SLM) approaches. In PTS, each block of subcarriers is multiplied by a constant ...

Time-frequency-selective, equivalently time-variant multipath, fading channels in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems introduce intercarrier interference (ICI), resulting in severe performance degradation. To suppress the effect of ICI, several symbol detection methods have been proposed, all of which are based on the observation that most of the ICI’s power is distributed...
