Blind and Semiblind Spatio-Temporal Diversity for OFDM Systems

Overview Adaptive antenna arrays can be used to improve the performance of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing systems. They are usually applied in the frequency domain, after the FFT demodulation. In this paper, the selected algorithms are applied in time domain. A blind method is firstly proposed for the maximization of the temporal Signal to Noise plus Interference Ratio (SNIR) in frequency selective channels exploiting the temporal redundancy introduced by the Cyclic Prefix (CP). This algorithm may cope well with non-stationary interference that appears during the burst transmission. This blind technique is extended so as to take advantage of the preamble that precedes the useful data in the HIPERLAN/2 (HL/2) specification.

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).

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?
