ICI Cancellation Based Channel Estimation for OFDM Systems

Overview Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing OFDM), which is a multicarrier modulation scheme, splits high data rate information symbols into lower rate parallel data streams and transmits this parallel information on different orthogonal carriers. The loss of orthogonality among subcarriers causes inter-carrier interference (ICI), which affects both channel estimation and detection of OFDM data symbols. Channel estimation error degrades the performance of coherent receiver limiting capacity, data rate and performance of the overall OFDM system. This paper proposes a novel frequency-domain channel estimator, which mitigates the effects of ICI by jointly finding the frequency offset and channel frequency response (CFR).

In brief: MTV streams music channel onto the Web

PSINet will host the music channel M2, which will have 24 hour a day broadcasting and video interaction. M2 is currently only available in the US, but European users will be able to access the Web site and the channel will eventually be screened on...

Esprit European network division goes live

We have always sold our spare capacity, but growing demand now makes it worthwhile to set up a parallel business as a carrier's carrier. Esprit Telecom has launched a networks division devoted to selling bandwidth to rival carriers.

Where have all the data carriers gone?

Users should be in no doubt that this capacity will come in useful - but in the future when content will be created to tempt us all to part with hard-earned cash in return for flashy video streams and the like.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Wireless everything

Understanding the detail is not easy and is probably easiest to conceive of as thousands of micro-radio channels broadcast in parallel all at the same time. Such 'spread spectrum' systems were originally developed towards the end of WWII for secret...

Radioactive: Bluetooth - survival of the fastest

The opposing technology approaches are orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and direct sequence (DS)-UWB. The first work was the development of what was then called impulse radio, baseband or carrier-free communications back in the 1960s.

Complexity makes travellers miss their connection

In the not too distant future, you will be able to add 3G Long Term Evolution (LTE), mobile WiMax, multiple in multiple out (MiMo) and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) to the mix. David Perry, product marketing, carrier, VoIP and...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
