This paper proposes the architecture of UWB OFDM communication system. More high data rate is requested in the 128-point FFT/IFFT of the UWB OFDM communication system than the conventional communication systems. So, the proposed architecture uses pipeline and parallel architecture. For a highly efficient architecture, the optimal clipping power and the input quantization bits are found in simulation. The hardware complexity of the proposed architecture is presented is consideration of Adder, Register and Complex Multiplier.

Currently, The new communication system was very important because of the increasing demand for Internet access. One of these alternatives is the PLC. But, Power Line is not suitable for communication. So, electromagnetic wave is generated from Power Line during flow of communication information. And the electromagnetic wave is interfered with Wireless Communication Service using the same frequency range. To eliminate this interference by used Notch tilter. Wavelet OFDM in another way, while one is used. In this paper, Wavelet OFDM CIC filter used in the CMFB structure by applying a further lowering the value of the side-lobe is proposed to improve performance.

Othogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) has been taken notice of 4th generation communication method because it has a merit of high data rate(HDR). To realize HDR communication, The OFDM a s high efficient Fast-Fourier-Transform (FFT)/Inversion FFT (IFFT) processor. Currently OFDM is realized by Digital Signal Processor(DSP) but it consumes a lot of Power. Therefore, current-mode FFT LSI has been proposed for compensation of this demerit. In this paper, we propose IVC for current-mode FFT LSI. From the simulation result, the output value of IVC is more than 3V when the value of FFT Block output is more than $7.35{\mu}A$. The output value of IVC is lower than 0.5V when the value of FFT Block output is lower than $0.97{\mu}A$. Designed IVC Low-power Current mode FFT LSI will contribute to the operation of current-mode FFT LSI and the development of next generation wireless communication systems.

It is very important to get very high switching speed as well as low phase noise of frequency synthesizer in the OFDM/FH communication system. In this paper we compare the phase noises and switching speeds of the conventional PLL and digital hybrid PLL(DH-PLL) frequency synthesizer, also, we investigate the effect of phase noise on the performance of OFDM/FH communication system. DH-PLL has high switching speed property at the cost of circuit complexity and more power consumption. Unlike the conventional PLL in which the phase noise and switching speed have the trade off relationship in respect of loop filter bandwidth, DH-PLL frequency synthesizer can perform fast switching speed and low phase noise simultaneously. Under the condition of same hopping speed requirement, DH-PLL can achieve faster switching speed and lower SNR penalty compared with conventional PLL in the OFDM/FH communication system.

The giant information exchange enabled by the Internet of Things paradigm will likely exploit electrical lines as a ready-to-use infrastructure. The advantage of using the pre-installed infrastructure of wiring networks makes power line communication a competitive technology for broad-band communications. Therefore, there has been a growing interest towards the use of existing power line communication channels as an effective means for transmitting high speed data and Internet service. One of the main noise types affecting power line communication systems is the impulsive noise, and the focus of this work is on the impact of this impulsive noise on the performance of OFDM-QPSK systems. For the performance analysis of impulsive noise, data measured in three environments were used. Through the analysis, it is shown that OFDM-QPSK system outperforms QPSK system for most of the impulsive noise cases. Also, RS-coded OFDM-QPSK system can achieve good BER performance under 3 cases impulsive noise environment.

It is important to consider the nonlinear effects of the HPA(High Power Amplifier) in the OFDM communication systems and other digital communication systems as well. In this paper, we investigate a new performance figure-of$.$merit(D) that reflects both power and spectrum efficiencies. The performance figure-of-merit is expressed to include the spectrum and power efficiencies that depend on the magnitude of IBO(Input Backoff) and the number of subcarriers. So, we analyze the variation characteristics of the power efficiency and spectrum efficiency which has the tradeoff relationship.

OFDM/FH communication system Is widely used in the wireless communication for the large capacity and high-speed data transmission. However, phase noise and PAPR (peak-to-average power ratio) are the serious problems causing performance impairment. In this paper, PLL (phase locked loop) frequency synthesizer with high switching speed is used for the phase noise model. SSPA and TWTA are considered for the nonlinear HPA model. Under these conditions and by approximating $e^{j{\phi}[m]}$ into $1 + j{\phi}[m]-\frac{1}{2}{\phi}^2[m]$ for the phase noise nonlinear approximation, SINR (signal-to-interference-noise-ratio) with nonlinear HPA and phase noise is derived in the OFDM/FH system. The bit error probabilities (BER) are found by computer simulation method and semi-analytical method. The simulation results closely match with the semi-analytical results.

In this paper, we provide a new detection scheme for a pilot symbol assisted interference nulling and cancellation operation to reduce unexpected effects owing to parallel transmission in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based spatial multiplexing systems. We have shown that the investigated OFDM vertical Bell laboratories layered space time (VBLAST) detection based on hybrid processing performs better than ordinary OFDM-VBLAST detections based on serial processing and parallel processing, respectively.

Together with the GPS-based approach, geo-location through mobile communication networks is a key technology for location-based service. To save the cost, most geo-location system is implemented on the existed network service, which has a cellular structure. Still, multilateration is limited in cellular structure because it is difficult for the mobile terminal to acquire distance measurements from multiple base stations. This low hearability in the receiver is caused by co-channel interference and multipath environment. Therefore, hearability enhancement is necessary for multilateration under multipath and interference environment. Former time domain based hearability methods were designed for real signals. However, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal, which its usage has been increased in digital wireless communication, is a complex signal. Thus, different hearability enhancement method is needed for OFDM signals. This paper proposes a hearability enhancement method for forward-link multilateration using OFDM signals, which employ interference cancellation and multipath mitigation. A novel interference cancellation and multipath mitigation strategy for complex-valued OFDM signals is presented that has an iterative structure. Simulation results show that the proposed multilateration method provides the user's position with an accuracy of less than 80m through the mobile WiMAX cellular network in multipath environment.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) is very useful for the wireless communication system. However, OFDM is very sensitive to the radio frequency impairments. One of the most important major impairments is the IQ imbalance between in-phase(l) and quadrature(Q) branches in the up and down-conversion. IQ imbalance can be divided into phase and amplitude imbalances. These imbalances make constellation of signal to expand and rotate. The performance of system is severely degraded. In this paper, a closed-form for the bit error probability of the OFDM signal in IQ imbalance environment is derived in terms of the function of phase and amplitude imbalance parameters. So, it will be convenient and useful to evaluate the performance of OFDM communication system with IQ imbalance. It is confirmed that computer simulation results closely match with the results of the analytical derivation. When phase imbalance $\varphi=20^{\circ}$, amplitude imbalance $\varepsilon=0.1$; 0.3; 0.4; 0.5, BER at $10^{-5}$ is severely degraded by 1.8 dB, 3.12 dB, 4.72, and 8.44 dB, respectively.
