Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the STO (Symbol Timing Offset) problem in conventional ZP-OFDM (Zero Padding-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) systems and propose a robust ZP-OFDM system with bi-directional overlap-add scheme to overcome the problem. The proposed ZP-OFDM system is able to preserve the orthogonality between subcarriers and reduce the interference from other ZP-OFDM symbols due to the BOA scheme, which exploits both ZP intervals of the previous and the current ZP-OFDM symbols, even though serious STOs result from inaccurate symbol timing synchronization. Simulation results verify that the proposed ZP-OFDM system is superior to the conventional ZP-OFDM system.

본 논문에서는 ZP-OFDM(Zero Padding-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 시스템에서의 심볼 타이밍 옵셋의 문제를 분석하고, 이러한 심볼 타이밍 옵셋 문제를 극복하기 위해 양방향 중첩-가산 기법을 사용하는 ZP-OFDM 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 ZP-OFDM 시스템은 부정확한 심볼 타이밍 동기로 인해 심각한 심볼 타이밍 옵셋이 발생하더라도 이전 ZP-OFDM 심볼과 현재 ZP-OFDM 심볼의 ZP 간격을 모두 사용하는 양방향 중첩-가산 기법을 통해 부반송파간의 직교성을 유지할 수 있으며 다른 ZP-OFDM 심볼로부터의 간섭을 줄일 수 있다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 제안한 ZP-OFDM 시스템이 기존의 ZP-OFDM 시스템 보다 우수함을 증명한다.
