This code was used for making the practical measurements in section 2.3 of my thesis. This Matlab code allows an OFDM signal to be generated based on an input data file. The data can be random data, a grey scale image, a wave file, or any type of file. The generated OFDM signal is stored as a windows wave file, allowing it to be viewed, listened to and manipulated in other programs. The modif...

Measuring the RMS EVM of the underlying modulation in an OFDM signal is straight forward. However the accuracy of the EVM appears to be affected by the number of null tones present in the OFDM FFT. In other words if there are no null tones, then the EVM measurement is as expected and as the number of null tones increases the EVM measurement diverges from expected. Does anybody know of any lit...
Two questions about OFDM

Some articles say that an OFDM system will reduce the symbol rate through parallel data transmission. Is this really true? Let's say suppose there are 100 subcarriers in an OFDM system and the data rate before the IDFT is 100 symbols per second. It seems to me that, after IDFT, each subcarrier only transmits one of the 100 symbols in 1/100 second like this: 1st subcarrier: 1/100 idle ...

Hi there, I have a question on OFDM. As we know, most OFDM systems nowadays do not use all the available tones (subcarriers) for data modulation. Let us say we have 64 tones in total and we might end up with 48 data tones, 4 pilot tones, 3 DC tones and 9 null tones, which is kind of an typical setup. My question is regarding the null tones, which are usually placed on the two boundaries...

Hi guys I've got my OFDM system up and running in MATLAB. Now I want to parameterize it in terms of BW and T_s etc. I want to use the WLAN channel model but I don't know how many tabs the channel length should be and what the gains are. Can anyone help on this? thanks

HI, here People usually estimate the SINR in the OFDM systems in the following way. 1. Estimate over each specific pilot subcarrier of different OFDM symbols. (i.e. CINR estimation) 2. Then average over all pilot subcarriers (i.e. average CINR) to approximate the SINR. The problem is, most CINR estimation algorithms are based on a simpliied channel model assumption. That is, "y = h*a +...
OFDM transmission under rayleigh fading

Hi all, I would like to find theoretical 802.11g BER performances in the case of a transmission under rayleigh channel. I found theoretical M-QAM curves, but I don't know how to compute BER curves for OFDM transmission due to the use of several sub-carriers... Is the OFDM BER something like that: BER = (1/N)*SUM(BER_i, i=1..N) where N is the number of sub-carriers and BER_i the BER on e...

Hi to everybody, I'm a new user of this forum; I'm trying to realize a model in simulink with I can simulate an ofdm trasmitter and receiver. I have seen the model proposed from mathwork and I want to insert the effect of a channel and not only the noise; Has anybody any information about this task? Thanks, AlexGiul

Hi all, I tried to simulate the bit error rate performance using bpsk with convolutional code: R=1/2, K=7, generator polynomials (133,171) in AWGN and the performance using bpsk ofdm with the code in AWGN. I got the same ber curve for both cases, which showed some advantage or gain after using the coding However, when I simulated the bpsk ofdm system using the conv. code in flat rayleigh, I ...

I have a question that why in 802.11a IEEE standard, the PLCP long training sequence takes the GI2(Guard interval 2) as the prefix of two OFDM symbols, not one GI before one OFDM and the other GI before the second OFDM symbol? What is the advantage of that?? The following includes the IEEE 802.11a 1999 version: http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/802.11.html Thanks.

Hi, I have a question related with the OFDM transmitter. What is the commonly method to increase the sampling rate ? - Increasing the IFFT size and insert zero in the inpput ? or - Insert zero in the IFFT output and followed by interpolation filter ? What is the trade-off ? anyone can help ? Thanks. Buzz

Hi, I am actually new in sparse signal processing and first trying to get the basics of the sparse signals. In OFDM systems the sparse channel is estimated by using some sparse signal processing algorithms such as compressive sensing. Could anyone please explain me how to model the sparse channel/sparse signal in OFDM systems? What is the logic behind the sparse representation? Thanks i...

I have been wondering if OFDM based system use PLL or DLL as in single carrier system e.g. GSM to do synchronization at all? Currently, a lot of ofdm based systems talk about implementing the frequency offset and time offset compensation in the digital domain. Do they also implement the time and frequency synchronization in hardware?
