Introduction
▶ The traditional single carrier communication systems do not perform well because
it suffers extreme fading of the signal and Inter Symbol Interference.
▶ Because of the high-speed data transmission and effectiveness in combating the
frequency selective fading channel, OFDM technique is widely used in wireless
communication.

Need for OFDM


▶ To overcome the limitations posed by single carrier FDM:
▶ Lower Spectral Efficiency
▶ Higher Bandwidth
▶ Effect of ISI and ICI
▶ Lower data rate
▶ Short Symbol times
▶ Need for equalizers

Principle of OFDM

▶ Sub-carriers: The OFDM concept is based on spreading the high speed data to
be transmitted over a large number of low rate sub-carriers.
▶ Orthogonality of carriers: The carriers are orthogonal to each other and frequency
spacing between them are created by using the fast Fourier transform (FFT).
Orthogonality Principle:
Z T
cos(2πnf0 t)cos(2πmf0 t)dt = 0(n ̸= m)
0

IFFT:

▶ The symbols are modulated into orthogonal sub-carriers using IFFT.


▶ The OFDM concept would use N oscillators for N different subcarrier frequencies

Cyclic Prefix:

▶ OFDM also uses a cyclic prefix (CP) to overcome the residual ISI
▶ Cyclic Prefix adds additional time to the OFDM symbol before the real data is
sent

▶ The fundamerntal frequency f is usually set to the reciprocal of each symbol
duration T.
