A low-complexity dual-user multiplexing scheme is proposed for a pair of mobiles equipped with single antenna operating over frequency-selective fading channels. The proposed scheme employs OFDM transmission scheme with a modified version of a space-frequency code and a low-complexity PIC-SIC group detection is invoked at the corresponding receiver. The BER performances of the proposed scheme are studied using LTE-like parameters through simulations and are compared against those of conventional ZF and ML schemes.

Selected mapping (SLM) is an effective scheme to reduce the peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. For data recovery, the receiver needs to know the side information (SI) on the scrambling sequence selected by the transmitter. In this paper, a new SLM scheme is proposed, which can reduce implementation complexity substantially by allowing the receiver to recover the data without SI. In the proposed SLM method, the concept of virtual channel corresponding to the convolution of the multipath channel and the inverse discrete fourier transform (IDFT) of the scrambling sequence is assumed. The receiver can recover the data without SI by using the virtual channel estimated with pilot signals. It is shown by simulation that the proposed SLM has PAPR reduction and BER performances similar to the previous SLM schemes while it can reduce implementation complexity substantially.

The phenomenon degrading reception performance of DVB broadcasting signal is caused by collocation of plural communication modules in the GSM-900 cellular phone with a built-in DVB-H receiver. This paper offers how to improve performance of the DVB-H receiver by applying digital filter that is using DSP techniques to cancel GSM signal interfering to the DVB-H receiver which is collocated in a single user's GSM terminal. In the demodulation part of the DVB-H receiver, the DVB reception performance can be greatly improved by removing interference components of GSM signal, which is flowed with DVB signal, to the noise cancellation filtering algorithm using difference of characteristics between GSM modulated signal and OFDM signal.

In the present paper some fundamentals about exceeding the guard interval of an OFDM system is going to discuss and will introduce method to cancel a ISI and ICI effects. In this paper, the performance characteristics of robust OFDM receiving system algorithm that is composed of a channel estimator using recursive least square(RLS) algorithm in time domain and of a ISI and ICI replica and subtracter using the channel coefficients are presented. By computer simulation method, the effect of suppression of ISI and ICI is demonstrated and compared the BER performance with a conventional 1-tap equalized system. Especially the presented scheme improves the BER performance at low SNRs more or so compared with the conventional one-tap equalized receiving configuration.

In this work, we propose an efficient selective retransmission method for multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) wireless systems under orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) signaling. A typical received OFDM frame may have some symbols in error, which results in a retransmission of the entire frame. Such a retransmission is often unnecessary, and to avoid this, we propose a method to selectively retransmit symbols that correspond to poor-quality subcarriers. We use the condition numbers of the subcarrier channel matrices of the MIMO-OFDM system as a quality measure. The proposed scheme is embedded in the modulation layer and is independent of conventional hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) methods. The receiver integrates the original OFDM and the punctured retransmitted OFDM signals for more reliable detection. The targeted retransmission results in fewer negative acknowledgements from conventional HARQ algorithms, which results in increasing bandwidth and power efficiency. We investigate the efficacy of the proposed method for optimal and suboptimal receivers. The simulation results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method on throughput for MIMO-OFDM systems.

This paper proposes a hybrid symbol offset estimation algorithm for MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) OFDM system. As MIMO OFDM systems are multiple transmitter and receiver antenna systems, apart from SISO(Single Input Single Output) system, it is possible to use several combining techniques which are used in multiple receive antenna system. In this paper, we propose hybrid symbol offset estimation algorithms using combining techniques in multiple receive antenna systems, simulate and show the performances in MIMO system environments. The proposed equal gain combining correlation algorithm has better performance 1.8 times in searching the ideal symbol offset rather than the conventional early symbol offset algorithm in severe ISI channel.

A spectrally encapsulated (SE) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) precoding scheme for wireless short packet transmission, which can suppress the out-of-band emission (OoBE) while maintaining the advantage of the cyclic prefix (CP)-OFDM, is proposed. The SE-OFDM symbol consists of a prefix, an inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) symbol, and a suffix generated by the head, center, and tail matrices, respectively. The prefix and suffix play the roles of a guard interval and suppress the OoBE, and the IFFT symbol has the same size as the discrete Fourier transform symbol in the CP-OFDM symbol and serves as an information field. Specifically, as the center matrix generating the IFFT symbol is orthogonal, data and pilot symbols can be allocated to any subcarrier without distinction. Even if the proposed precoder is required to generate OFDM symbols with spectral efficiency in the transmitter, a corresponding decoder is not required in the receiver. The proposed scheme is compared with CP-OFDM in terms of spectrum, OoBE, and bit-error rate.

In this paper, we present an adaptive modulation technique for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) for broadband wireless communications. Also, using improved channel prediction, we enhance the performance of adaptive OFDM in high mobility environments. Adaptive modulation technique has been shown to achieve reliable high-rate data transmission over frequency-selective fading channel when OFDM is employed. This scheme requires the accurate channel information between two stations for a better performance. In an outdoor high mobility environment, most of adaptive OFDM systems have to be given the channel information transmitted from the receiver. Even if it is possible, there is some delay. Moreover, the channel impulse response between two stations is very rapidly varied. If the channel information is obsolete at the time of transmission, then poor system performance will result. In order to solve this problem, we propose adaptive OFDM with improved channel predictor. The proposed bit allocation algorithm has a lower complexity and the proposed scheme mitigates the effect of channel delay. Robust approach is less sensitive to outdated channel information. Performance results show that the proposed scheme can achieve considerable performance enhancement.

In an OFDM system, the sampling frequency offset between the transmitter and receiver is known to cause the inter-channel interference (ICI), resulting in performance degradation. Sampling frequency offset can be generally estimated by correlation of the pilot signal within contiguous OFDM symbol. In this paper, we propose sampling frequency offset estimation schemes using various mixture of consecutive symbols. We conduct a simulation in DVB-T(2K mode) system, which shows that the proposed schemes can improve the performance of sampling frequency offset estimation by decreasing noise effect within consecutive symbols in AWGN channel model.

In this paper, we have proposed a clock recovery algorithm of OFDM/QPSK-DMR(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing/Quadrature Phase Shift Keying Modulation-Digital Microwave Radio)system using BL-PSF(Band Limited-Pulse Shaping Filter) and have analyzed the clock phase error variance performance of OFDM/QPSK and single carrier DMR systems. The existing OFDM/QPSK-DMR system using the windowing requires training sequence or CP(Cyclic Prefix) to synchronize a receiver clock frequency Because there is no training sequence or CP(Cyclic prefix) in our proposed DMR system, the proposed clock recovery algorithm is useful to the OFDM/QPSK-DMR system using BL-PSF, The simulation results confirm that the proposed clock recovery algorithm has the same clock phase error variance performance in a single carrier DMR system under AWGN(Additive White Gaussian Noise) environment.
