OFDM channel

Started by Gaaza April 20, 2009
Hi All
I am simulating OFDM in MATLAB.. i have completed most of the part..

I have one doubt..i get complex signal to be transmitted that is real and
imaginary...

how do i pass such a signal through channel filter.. so as to simulate
actual scenario of real world channel propagation....

should i pass the real part only 

Please help me on this

I think you need to study the concept of baseband versus passband transmission. Either you need to have carrier modulation after your OFDM modulator, or you need to constrain the input signals to have conjugate symmetry to get a real-valued output from your OFDM modulator. Julius

Nothing to add, just wanted to change the subject back.
