Abstract
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has been investigated as promising technology for future broadband communication. In this paper, we propose a power allocation algorithm for a frequency selective fading channel. However, many investigated algorithms that perform high computation overhead are not appropriate for sensor network systems due to hardware limitations. The proposed algorithm significantly reduces computational overhead and satisfies the power budget. Throughput of the algorithm is comparable to the optimum solution. Simulation results support the claim stated.
