In this paper, an efficient frequency offset compensation design for OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is proposed. The conventional CORDIC(COordinate Rotation Digital Computer) algorithm for frequency offset compensation utilizes CORDIC hardware and complex multiplier. But, proposed structure utilizes only one CORDIC hardware.

This paper presents an efficient frequency offset (FO) estimation algorithm for the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based wireless local area networks (WLANS). The packet preamble imformation is utilized on the high rate WLAN standards adopted by the IEEE 802.11a. We present FO estimation schemes using diversity. In the simulation results, we prove that the presented schemes can improve the estimation performance compared with the convolutional scheme.

This letter deals with non-pilot-aided symbol timing estimation methods in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. To do this, OFDM system uses a frequency diversity scheme over two consecutive data symbols. Our approach can be viewed as an expansion of Schmidl's and Minn's correlation methods. Using the OFDM signal equipped with frequency diversity, however, symbol timing is accurately estimated without additional training symbol and a second-order diversity gain is achieved.

In this paper, the new technique combing power control with Pre-FFT beamforming is proposed for MIMO(multi-input multi-output)-OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system. As combining the proposed power control with beamforming, we can iteratively control the transmittingpower and update the weight of beamformer together. And then, the beam is formed toward the desired direction and SNIR of each subcarrier is converged to target SNIR. Therefore, the performance of MIMO-OFDM system is very improved. BER performance improvement of the proposed approach is investigated through computer simulation by combining power allocation algorithm with MIMO-OFDM system using Pre-FFT beamformer

Adaptive transmission techniques can improve the performance of wireless communication system by adaptively changing the transmission parameter such as modulation, code-rate, and power according to the channel state. For orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system, the adaptive transmission techniques can be applied to each subcarrier unit. In this paper, we consider the adaptive code-rate OFDM system in which optimal code-rate is applied to each subcarrier according to the subchannel state. Performance analysis show that $3\sim6$dB gain of SNR or up to $30\sim50\%$ increase of data rate are achieved in the condition of bit error rate $10^{-6}$.

Terabit-per-second (Tb/s) transmission capacity for the next generation of long-haul communication networks can be achieved using multicarrier optical super-channel technology. In an elastic orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) super-channel transmission system, demultiplexing a portion of an entire spectrum in the form of a subband with minimum power is critically required. A major obstacle to achieving this goal is the analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which is power-hungry and extremely expensive. Without a proper ADC that can work with low power, it is unrealistic to design a 100G coherent receiver suitable for a commercially deployable optical network. Discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is often seen as a primary technique for understanding partial demultiplexing, which can be attained either optically or electronically. If fairly comparable performance can be achieved with an all-optical DFT circuit, then a solution independent of data rate and modulation format can be obtained. In this paper, we investigate two distinct OFDM super-channel receiver models, based on electronic and all-optical DFT-technologies, for partial carrier demultiplexing in a multi-Tb/s transmission system. The performance comparison of the receivers is discussed in terms of bit-error-rate (BER) performance.

In this paper, the new beamforming is proposed for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) system with multi-input multi-output(MIMO). Through the proposed Pre-FFT beamforming technique for MIMO-OFDM, the multibeams are formed toward each multi-transmitter antenna of the desired user. The proposed beamforming for MIMO-OFDM can reduce cochannel interference and get diversity gain in the multi-user environment. Therefore, the performance of MIMO-OFDM system is very improved. BER performance improvement of the proposed approach is investigated through computer simulation by applying it to MIMO-OFDM system in the multi-user environment.

Mc-OFDM(Multi code-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation has been developed for high-speed data transmission over wireless channels. However, this system suffers critical problem from relatively high PAPR(Peak to Average Power Ratio). To reduce PAPR, we suggest a new technique, called Mapping using (N+1)PSK and demonstrate the performance of mapped Mc-OFDM system. On the other side, in OFDM system, each sub-carrier experiences different fading, thus some sub-carriers may be completely lost because of deep fade. To solve a above mention problem, we propose cooperative communications that improve the reliability of sub-carriers through spatial diversity.

In this paper, a new OFDM scheme, IS-OFDM(Interference Suppressing Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), which has the capabilities of suppressing narrow-band interference for wide-band wireless communication systems, is introduced. This IS-OFDM system is composed of the parallel stages of ordinary OFDM, and each sub-carrier contains all of the transmitted symbols. Using Hadamard sequences, the transmitted information symbols in the same sub-carriers are separated from the other sub-carriers in the receiver. After analyzing and evaluating the performance of IS-OFDM system using Monte-Carlo simulation, the effective improvements of performance in IS-OFDM compare favorably with that of a conventional OFDM system in a narrow-band channel, is shown.

The conventional OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation can be combined with WHT (Walsh-Hadamard Transform) to reduce PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio) and improve BER (Bit Error Rate) performance. However, this WHT-based OFDM system still suffers a relatively high PAPR. Therefore, we suggest a new technique, called DGT (Data Grouping Technique) and design an OFDM system employing it and WHT to further decrease PAPR without the BER performance degradation. h salient property of DGT is the independence of the side information which is inherently a principal drawback of the well-known PAPR reduction techniques for OFDM system as well as WHT-based OFDM. The simulation programs have been also performed to verify the validity of the proposed system.
