PAPR Reduction Using Integer Structures in OFDM Systems

Overview Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a multicarrier transmission technique, which is widely adopted in different communication applications. OFDM prevents Inter Symbol Interference (ISI) by inserting a guard interval and mitigates the frequency selectivity of a multi-path channel by using a simple equalizer. This simplifies the design of the receiver and leads to inexpensive hardware implementations. Moreover, OFDM offers some advantages in higher order modulations and in the networking operation that position OFDM as the technique of choice for the next generation of wireless networks.

TI's 'turbo Wi-Fi' - still born?

In the 802.11g standards battle, PBCC eventually lost ground to OFDM, or Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing, as the modem of choice. The technique TI uses to boost turbo Wi-Fi's speed is known as PBCC (Packet Binary Convolutional Coding).

IP poised to storm the call centre

While it is true to say the vast majority of call centres still use traditional switching (aka Time Division Multiplexing or TDM) and plan to do so for the foreseeable future, IP is progressing towards a point of dominance.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
