2.1)Basic principles:
OFDM
2.2)OFDM & FDM :
OFDM is special case of FDM, the following figures shows what are the difference between Regular FDMsingle carrier and OFDM.
OFDM
2.3)OFDM modulation:
Choosing
the no. of subcarriers and the spacing depends on channel conditions. (BW and freq. spacing) we can find the number of subcarriers. spacing =15 khz& BW=10 Mhz 600 subcarrier.
Given
Ex:
The
word OFDM subcarriers are mutually orthogonal over the time interval mTu t <(m+1)Tu .

Basic
OFDM
The physical resource in case of OFDM transmission is often illustrated as a timefrequency grid according to Figure 4.4 where each column corresponds to one OFDM symbol and each row corresponds to one OFDM subcarrier.

OFDM
Any corruption of the frequency-domain structure of the OFDM subcarriers, e.g. due to a frequency selective radio channel, may lead to a loss of inter-subcarrier orthogonality and thus to interference between subcarriers What is the SOLUTION ? ? ? ?

OFDM
2.6)Cyclic prefix:
In case of time-dispersive channel the orthogonality between the subcarriers will, at least partly be lost, Due to inter-symbol interference within a subcarrier and interference between subcarriers.
Have in mind that time dispersion on the radio channel is equivalent to a frequency-selective channel frequency response. A relatively modest radio-channel frequency selectivity may cause non-negligible interference between subcarriers, Due to the relatively large side lobes of each OFDM subcarrier.

2.6)Cyclic prefix:

OFDM
2.6)cyclic prefix:
OFDM symbol from Tu to Tu +TCP, with a reduction in the OFDM symbol rate.
OFDM
2.6)Cyclic prefix:
The drawback of cyclic-prefix insertion is that only a fraction Tu/(Tu +TCP) of the received signal power is actually utilized by the OFDM demodulator There is a trade-off between the power loss due to the cyclic prefix and the signal corruption. Time dispersion typically increases with the cell size, beyond a certain cell size there is no reason to increase the cyclic prefix further as the corresponding power loss due to a further increase of the cyclic prefix would have a larger negative impact.

OFDM
2.7)Frequency domain model:
bk is the transmitted modulation symbol ak scaled and phase rotated by the complex frequencydomain channel tap Hk and impaired by noise nk.
19
OFDM
20
To properly recover the transmitted symbol for further processing, for example data demodulation and channel decoding, the receiver should multiply bk with the complex conjugate of Hk.
OFDM
Reference symbols, sometimes also referred to as pilot symbols to estimate H Using knowledge about the reference symbols, the receiver can estimate the frequency-domain channel around the location of the reference symbol to use it in the receiver.

2.9)
The OFDM subcarrier spacing should be as small as possible to minimize the relative cyclic-prefix overhead TCP/(Tu +TCP). too small subcarrier spacing increases the sensitivity of the OFDM transmission to Doppler spread and different kinds of frequency inaccuracies.
