Thanks col , I have checked your code , & i think i have get some idea.
I am wondering that maybe i have the same problem with Shahin. Actually i
have skipped the step in insert cyclic prefix & remove cyclic prefix in my
code , since i assume the process is ideal. Therefore there is no IBI.
Meanwhile , there is only the AWGN might affect my SER , but i really no
idea , why the theoretical SER & simulate SER is totally difference , &
the number of error is too large.   

the  F=ifft(eye(.....))) & direct ifft the transmitted signal actually is
the same , since i am try to do in block transmission & equalization.

And I am referring this Journal
http://www.ece.iastate.edu/~zhengdao/group/publications/papers/wagi00m.pdf

Regards 

Eric

Eric, Your code is quite confusing to follow. I'm not entirely certain what the F=ifft(eye(.....))) is all about? When you say that you have generated an OFDM signal have you actually veriifed the performance with the theoretical AWGN, without sticking it through a channel? Have a look at this link for a freq flat fading to get some ideas and then come back with questions. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.dsp/browse_frm/thread/febe0248d368fbe8/0f61c99347e8de3a?lnk=gst&q=Maybe+a+short+example+will+help%3F+&rnum=1#0f61c99347e8de3a col

hi all ,

Recently , I have generated a OFDM signal , but meanwhile I have noticed
that my Analytical & Computer Simulation of my SER are totally difference,
Moreover , the Numbers of Errors in my signal also quite large, therefore i
am wondering whether there are some Errors in my signal detection or the
progress of generate OFDM signal. Actually I should generate channel
estimation of OFDM signal , but i have stuck at this part quite long time
, therefore i am really need help from all of you with my sincere.

Thank you.

Eric
