In this paper, a new receiver is proposed for the detection of the OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) signals in the time-selective multipath fading channel. For the optimal detection, we estimate the transmitted symbols from OFDM demultiplexing signal using the LMLE(linear masimum likelihold estimation) algorithm. Also, in this paper, the lowerbound for BER(bit error rate) using Taylor series approximation is provided. If the matched filter is used for the OFDM receiver in the time-selectivemultipath fading channel, it is known that the SER(symbol error rate) is always greater than $10^{-1}$, due to the cross-talk between adjacent channels. But, the proposed receiver provides of SER with 15dB SNR. Also, it is found that for the receiver implemented using the LMLE algorithm, the performance is shown to be not affected by the increase of th enumber of subchannel and channel path.

The importance of broadband wireless communication implemented at subway tunnels is growing up. At 18GHz wireless video transmission system, the transmitter requires a digital modulation method. At subway tunnel, A 18GHz's influence of the multi-pass padding is strong. OFDM digital modulation that is strong for multi-pass padding is recommended. In this paper, Suitable to a subway wireless video transmission OFDM receiver is designed.

In OFDM system, frequency-domain sub-carriers of a symbol generally consist of data sub-carriers and scattered pilot sub-carriers and in the receiver, channel is estimated through time-axis interpolating pilot sub-carriers of several OFDM symbols. However, time-axis interpolation fails to keep track of rapid channel variation caused by fast moving receiver. Although symbol by symbol channel estimation without time-axis interpolation enables fast estimation, the performance is severely degraded for a long delay spread channel in a single frequency networks (SFNs) because of insufficient pilot sub-carriers. In this paper, a channel estimation scheme for OFDM receiver in a fast mobile SFN channel is proposed. The proposed scheme is applied to DVB-T receiver to improve the Doppler mobile performance in SFN channel.

In orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system (OFDM), rapid channel variation caused by fast moving receiver leads to a loss of subcarrier orthogonality which results in inter-carrier interference (ICI) and receiver performance degradation. In conventional receivers, performance is enhanced by estimating ICI and removing it from received signals. In this paper, an ICI reduction scheme using a time-domain mask and adding is proposed. The proposed scheme is applied to DVB-T receiver to prove the Doppler mobile performance enhancement.

We propose a robust channel equalization algorithm. which is called a 1-tap additional coefficient decision feedback equalizer(ACDFE), to improve the Doppler shift performance for the OFDM receiver. The algorithm is based on the frequency domain DFE with additional coefficients which are independent of the OFDM subcarriers. Test results on OFDM-16QAM signals confirm that the proposed ACDFE is robust against fading channel due to Doppler shifts and outperforms the conventional DFE in terms of SER, MSE, and convergence speed.

A protocol is proposed to control the rate of each subcarrier in OFDM-based wireless network systems. The proposed protocol adds an OFDM symbol in CTS frame defined in IEEE 802.11 standard. A receiver determines the rate of its subcarrier after it receives the RTS frame. The determined rate is added to OFDM symbol in CTS frame. In order to synchronize the rate information between the sender and the receiver, error recovery process is proposed. The performance improvement of the proposed method is shown by numerical results.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) systems have many advantages. However, OFDM systems are much affected by a nonlinear distortion because those systems have a high peak to average power ratio(PAPR) value. A selected mapping technology was suggested to reduce a PAPR value. The technology does not have data loss but receivers need side information to know modified phase sequence. Therefore, side information causes decreased a transmission efficiency. In this paper, we suggest a blind SLM receiver using a cross correlation technology. This receiver does not require side information. The proposed blind SLM receiver calculates sums of cross-correlation between transmitted pilot signals multiplied by each phase sequence and received pilot signals. So, this receiver detects side information which has a maximum sum cross-correlation value. We compared our proposed SLM receiver to a conventional blind SLM receiver through bit error rate(BER) and side information error rate(SIER) performances. Simulation results show that the proposed SLM receiver has improved BER and SIER performances than the conventional SLM receiver.

In this paper, we propose receiver using ESPAR antenna for diversity gain. The proposed receiver receive signal by changing direction of beam pattern alternately in the OFDM symbol time period when DoA is estimated. In this way, the proposed receiver obtains diversity gain. The proposed receiver has single RF chain. If beam direction is changed alternately then it causes spectrum spread. And then, ICI occur because of spectrum spread. This interference can be equalized at the frequency domain equalizer such as ZF, MMSE and ML. In simulation, the proposed system receive signal using beam pattern of $60^{\circ}$ and beam pattern of $120^{\circ}$ alternately in OFDM symbol time period when it is assumed that DoA is $60^{\circ}$ and $120^{\circ}$. The performance results confirm that it is possible that the proposed receiver obtains diversity gain.

This paper proposes an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) waveform for the forward link of a fixed broadband satellite system. We focus on the synchronization tasks in the receiver. Our objective is to minimize the required overhead, in order to improve the spectral efficiency with regard to a single carrier waveform system. A non pilot aided algorithm is used for fine synchronization. It is preceded by a coarse synchronization stage, which relies on a limited overhead (short cyclic prefix associated to some pilots). The performance of the proposed receiver is assessed through simulation results.

OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) is an effective modulation technique for high speed transmission over fading channels. However, it has a high bit error rate in the receiver if there is an error on frame synchronization because of phase rotation. A coherent OFDM system has to acquire exact timing synchronization of fraction and integer sampling positions. When a sampling offset exist the performance of a receiver will be degraded severely. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that acquires the fractional sampling offset in OFDM systems. This scheme compares the channel impulse responses with the early and late sampled signals having 0.5 sample offset from the estimated sampling positions by correlation with the received and training samples. Its performance is verified by computer simulations in multipath channels.
