Adaptive pilot allocation for estimating sparse uplink MU-MIMO-OFDM channels

We consider uplink multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication. The transmit (Tx) side of the envisaged system consists of several single-antenna users or/and several …

Modified SNR gap approximation for resource allocation in LDPC-coded multicarrier systems

The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gap approximation provides a closed-form expression for the SNR required for a coded modulation system to achieve a given target error performance for a given constellation size. This approximation has been widely used …

BER evaluation of OFDM systems with joint effect of TI-ADC circuit’s gain mismatch and channel estimation error

Closed-form BER expression for OFDM with the effect of TI-ADC’s timing mismatch

Timing mismatch in time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (TI-ADCs) may cause a significant performance degradation in high-speed orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. To evaluate the impact of this impairment in such …

Accurate and efficient BER evaluation for high-speed OFDM systems impaired by TI-ADC circuit’s gain mismatch

This paper presents an efficient procedure to numerically evaluate the exact bit error rate of a rectangular quadrature amplitude modulated-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system that is impaired by the gain mismatch of a …

BER analysis of high-speed OFDM systems in the presence of time-interleaved analog-to-digital converter's offset mismatch

Time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (TI-ADCs) are widely used for multi-Gigabit orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems because of their attractive high sampling rate and high resolution. However, mismatch between the …

BER of high-speed OFDM systems in the presence of offset mismatch of TI-ADCs

Time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (TI-ADCs) are widely used for multi-Gigabit orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems because of their attractive high sampling rate and high resolution. However, in practice, offset …

Goodput-maximizing resource allocation in cognitive radio BIC-OFDM systems with DF relay selection

We propose a novel resource allocation (RA) strategy for a cognitive radio packet-oriented bit-interleaved coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (BIC-OFDM) system with decode-and-forward (DF) relays. The aim of the RA …

Offset mismatch calibration for TI-ADCs in high-speed OFDM systems

Time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (TIADCs) are widely used for multi-Gigabit orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based systems because of their attractive high sampling rate and high resolution. However, when not perfectly …
