Hi,
Is equalizer the right function for you ? As far as I now, you can do a
perfect channel estimation, but not perfect compensation ? Simple equalizer
can be really simple. Check 3GPP specification: 25.892.

Arthur.

Hi All,
I'm simulating rayleigh fading on an OFDM system. I have a
question with regards to the usage of the rayleighchan function. I'm
trying to figure out how to do perfect compensation for the fading using this
function. In theory, I could use an equalizer, but I would like to do perfect
compensation for my theoretical purposes and to keep things simple.
To have an idea of what i'm doing, here some pseudo-code:
% ->Generate binary data.
% ->4PSK modulation.
OFDMSymb = ifft(data); % ofdm symbol
IChan = real(OFDMSymb); QChan = imag(OFDMSymb);
% IChan is the in-phase component and QChan is the
quadrature component.
% fading goes here.
chan = rayleighchan; % for now!
Ifade = filter(chan, IChan);
Qfade = filter(chan, QChan);
SNR = 0:10; BER=0;
for m=1:times
for n = 1:length(SNR)
% add awgn
IfadeRx = ...
QfadeRx = ...
%
perfect compensation for fading.
This is where I would have to compenstate for
fading!!! I haven't figured out how to do it though! What
information do I have to extract from the chan variable and how do I
use it?
% do fft to received
symbol.
% demodulate
% calculate bit error rate.
end
BERR+ber;
end
If anyone
knows how to fully compensate for fading... that would be
great!
