The rapid growth in the wireless technology possess the need of high data rate transmission. This can be accomplished by using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). It is a particular case of multicarrier modulation (MCM), where high rate data stream is transmitted over low rate subcarriers. The system uses a number of carriers to transmit data simultaneously. The disadvantage of t...

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems are highly sensitive to synchronization errors. We introduce an algorithm for the blind estimation of symbol timing and carrier frequency offset in wireless OFDM systems. We consider the problem of blind symbol timing (ST) estimation for pulse-shaping orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems based on offset quadrature am...

Frequency division multiplexing (FDM) is a technology that transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path, such as a cable or wireless system. Each signal travels within its own unique frequency range (carrier), which is modulated by the data (text, voice, video, etc.). For multimedia implementations, consider the more efficient and robust OFDM (orthogonal frequency d...

The aim of this paper is to survey and compare previous methods for Data-aided timing and frequency synchronization of OFDM System. Synchronization has been one of the crucial research topics in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system because of its sensitivity to the timing and frequency errors [1]. To guarantee the fast and accurate data transmission, the Inter Symbol Interfe...

This paper results clipping and filtering technique for peak to average power ratio (PAPR) reduction in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). Our simulation results show that this technique removes inband and out of band distortion along with 1dB reduction in peak to average power ratio when crest ratio changes from 1.4 to 1.2. KeywordsClipping, Crest ratio, Orthogonal frequency di...

Super-orthogonal block codes in space-time domain (i.e., Super-orthogonal space-time trellis codes (SOSTTCs)) were initially designed for frequency nonselective (FNS) channels but in frequency selective (FS) channels these super-orthogonal block codes suffer performance degradation due to signal interference. To combat the effects of signal interference caused by the frequency selectivity of th...

Partial Transmit Sequence (PTS) technique is an attractive technique for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals. However, optimum PTS (OPTS) requires an exhaustive search over all combinations of allowed phase weighting factors, resulting in high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose an Alternate Optimised Grouping...
