Performance Improvement of OFDM Using Subcarrier Frequency Diversity
نویسنده
چکیده
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing is a key contender for broadcasting standards, due to its immunity towards multipath fading and ease of implementation. Here a novel scheme to exploit the frequency diversity within OFDM subcarriers has been proposed which further increases the bit error rate performance. The diversity is achieved by circularly shifting the OFDM subcarrier coefficients in pseudorandom manner. Thus we notice a significant performance improvement without any additional bandwidth requirements.

متن کاملSensitivity improvement and carrier power reduction in direct-detection optical OFDM systems by subcarrier pairing.
This paper introduces subcarrier pairing to optical OFDM systems and shows, using simulations, that the sensitivity of Direct-Detection Optical Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (DDO-OFDM) systems can be improved by 0.7 dB, without any coding overheads. Subcarrier pairing works because each subcarrier acquires a different electrical Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR), which ...

In this paper, we propose a subcarrier allocation method and a composite linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) channel estimator to increase spectrum efficiency in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmit diversity. The pilot symbols for OFDM transmit (Alamouti) diversity are exclusively allocated in two OFDM symbols in different antennas, which causes serious degradation o...
