A Study on Cooperative OFDM
نویسندگان
چکیده
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is becoming the chosen modulation technique for wireless communications. OFDM can provide high data rate, large spectrum efficiency with sufficient robustness to radio channel impairments. Cooperative diversity in wireless communication is a promising technique to mitigate multipath fading, which results in a fluctuation in the amplitude of the received signal. This work combines the features of both OFDM and cooperative communication thereby achieving a better system performance in terms of the bit error rate.

In this paper, a cooperative algorithm to improve the orthogonal space-timefrequency block codes (OSTFBC) in frequency selective channels for 2*1, 2*2, 4*1, 4*2 MIMO-OFDM systems, is presented. The algorithm of three node, a source node, a relay node and a destination node is formed, and is implemented in two stages. During the first stage, the destination and the relay antennas receive the sym...

متن کاملInterference Mitigation in Cooperative SFBC-OFDM
We consider cooperative space-frequency block-coded OFDM (SFBC-OFDM) networks with amplify-and-forward (AF) and decode-and-forward (DF) protocols at the relays. In cooperative SFBC-OFDM networks that employ DF protocol, (i), intersymbol interference (ISI) occurs at the destination due to violation of the “quasistatic” assumption because of the frequency selectivity of the relay-to-destination c...
