Introduction to OFDM
3. The first OFDM scheme presented in 1966
Development of OFDM over years
4. Frequency Division Multiplexing
(FDM)
•Frequency Division Multiplexing(FDM) has
been used for a long time to carry more than
one signal over a telephone line.
•FDM divides the channel bandwidth into sub
channels and transmits multiple relatively
low rate signals by carrying each signal on a
separate carrier frequency.
•To ensure that the signal of one sub channel
did not overlap with the signal from an
adjacent one , some guard-band was left
between the different sub channels.
5. what is OFDM?
Orthogonal frequency-division
multiplexing (OFDM) is a method of
encoding digital data on multiple carrier
frequencies. OFDM has developed into a
popular scheme for wideband digital
communication, used in applications such as
digital television and audio
broadcasting, DSL Internet access, wireless
networks, powerline networks, and 4Gmobile
communications.
6. Other definitions of OFDM
• a method of encoding digital data on multiple carrier
frequencies
oWikipedia
• an FDM modulation technique for transmitting large amounts
of digital data over a radio wave
oWebopedia
• a method of digital modulation in which a signal is split into
several narrowband channels at different frequencies.
o SearchNetworking
• A digital transmission technique that uses a large number of
carriers spaced apart at slightly different frequencies
o PC Magazine Encyclopedia
7. How does it work
•In order to solve the bandwidth efficiency problem ,
orthogonal frequency division multiplexing was
proposed , where the different carriers are
orthogonal to each other. With OFDM , it is possible
to have over lapping sub channels in the frequency
domain , thus increasing the transmission rate.
•This carrier spacing provides optimal spectral
efficiency.Today , OFDM has grown to be the most
popular communication system in high-speed
communications.
•OFDM is becoming the chosen modulation
technique for wireless communications . OFDM can
provide large data rates with sufficient robustness to
radio channel impairments.
12. What is C-OFDM
C-OFDM stands for Coded orthogonal
frequency-division multiplexing. It differs
from OFDM because in COFDM, forward
error correction is applied to the signal before
transmission.This is done to overcome errors.
COFDM and OFDM are sometimes used as
synonyms

20. Characteristics of OFDM
• Can easily adapt to severe channel conditions without
complex time-domain
equalization.
• Robust against narrow-band co-channel interference.
• Robust against intersymbol interference (ISI) and fading
caused by multipath propagation(.)تبلیغ
• High spectral efficiency as compared to conventional
modulation schemes, spread spectrum, etc.
• Efficient implementation using Fast FourierTransform
(FFT).
• Low sensitivity to time synchronization errors.
•Tuned sub-channel receiver filters are not required (unlike
conventional FDM).
• Facilitates single frequency networks (SFNs); i.e.,
transmitter macrodiversity.
21. OFDM DISADVANTAGES
H IGH PAPR(peak to average power ratio)
A number of independently modulated sub-carriers result in HIGH
PAPR
Non-linear power amplifier, efficient, but cannot be used
Causing performance degradation due to high distortion & out of
band radiations
High PAPR also increases complexity of ADC & DAC
FREQUENCY OFFSET
Sub-carriers are very close and overlapping
Even a small frequency offset will result in ISI
intersymbol interference (ISI) is a form of distortion of a signal in
which one symbol interferes with subsequent symbols.
Causes of frequency offset:
Frequency mismatch in local oscillators of transmitter & receiver
Doppler shift
Phase noise caused in the channel
