Performance analysis of a COFDM/FM in-band digital audiobroadcasting system

In this paper, we present a performance analysis of a coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing DAB system that is power multiplexed over a commercial FM station. We model the mobile channel with a time-frequency scattering function. Results show that the performance of the FM demodulator is crucial, since the level of the residual FM signal has a strong influence on the BER performance of the COFDM system. As with other mobile communication systems, the use of interleaving greatly enhances the performances

数字调制系统及无线电管理相关技术

对于大多数的数字传输系统来说，数字基带信号往往具有丰富的低频成分，而实际的通信信道又具有带通特性，因此，必须用数字信号来调制某一高频率的正弦或脉冲载波，使已调信号能通过带限信道传输。这种用基带数字信号控制高频载波，把基带数字信号变换为频带数字信号的过程称为数字调制。已调信号通过信道传输到接收端，然后通过解调把频带数字信号还原成基带数字信号，这种数字信号的反变换过程称为数字解调。通常，我们把数字调制与解调合起来称为数字调制，把包括调制和解调过程的传输系统叫做数字信号的频带传输系统。

A UHF mobile telephone system using digital modulation: Preliminary study

A UHF mobile telephone system using digital modulation is described. The system uses on-off keying of an 836-MHz carrier, the code being supplied by an adaptive delta coder with a clock frequency of 50 kHz. The maximum audio baseband signal-to-noise ratio is approximately 30 dB. The mobile receiver employs space diversity in a maximal-ratio combiner. Due to the use of amplitude modulation of the carrier rather than exponential modulation, the diversity receiver is very simple. The system was tested in the laboratory and in the field. Field tests were made in suburban and urban areas. For the four-branch system, threshold occurred at an average IF signal-to-noise ratio of approximately 12 dB.     

COFDM: an overview

The research and development of OFDM/COFDM for digital television broadcasting has received considerable attention and has made a great deal of progress in Europe. OFDM/COFDM has already been implemented in digital audio broadcasting and is being considered for terrestrial digital television and HDTV broadcasting. The advantages of COFDM claimed by the advocates in Europe have also caught the attention of US broadcasters and generated enthusiasm although a digital modulation technique called 8-VSB has been selected by the FCC Advisory Committee on Advanced Television Service (ACATS) for the final testing. There is considerable debate in the industry over the use of COFDM vs. VSB or QAM for terrestrial HDTV broadcasting. In this paper, the history of research and development on OFDM and COFDM is reviewed. Then, the basic principles, performance and implementation of OFDM and COFDM are examined. Analysis is given to enable the selection of key elements for meeting the constraints of the required applications. Based on the ATV channel model, performance expectation of COFDM under imperfect channel conditions and implementation issues are examined in details

Performance evaluation of COFDM for digital audio broadcasting. I.Parametric study

This paper describes the performance of COFDM (coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) for digital audio broadcasting (DAB) over various multipath mobile radio channels. COFDM is a channel coding and modulation scheme which mitigates the adverse effects of fading by using wideband multicarrier modulation combined with time interleaving and a convolutional error correcting code. A guard interval is inserted at the transition between successive symbols to absorb the intersymbol interference created by the time domain spread of the mobile radio channel. The decoding process is performed using differential demodulation in conjunction with a soft decision Viterbi decoder. The COFDM evaluation is done by means of computer simulations. A parametric study of the proposed COFDM system is done in this first of a series of papers to determine the optimal system parameter values for operation at a radio frequency of 1.5 GHz. The results show that the parameter values proposed in the standard are indeed well suited for operation at 1.5 GHz. Using the set of optimal parameter values found, the COFDM performance is then evaluated in mobile radio channels typical of different geographical environments. Simulation results confirm the benefit that the system gains from frequency diversity found in the urban and hilly terrain areas

Performance evaluation of COFDM for digital audio broadcasting. II.Effects of HPA nonlinearities

For pt. I see ibid. vol.43, no.1, p.64-75, 1997. The effects of the high power amplifier (HPA) nonlinearities on the performance of the Eureka 147 DAB system are studied by computer simulation. The performance is determined for three types of HPA: a travelling wave tube amplifier (TWTA), a solid state power amplifier (SSPA) and a perfectly linearized amplifier (PLA). Two related performance criteria are used: (a) the degradation, resulting from HPA nonlinearities, in the E_b /N₀ ratio required at the receiver to maintain a bit error rate of 10^-4 and (b) the total power degradation. These degradations are measured as a function of the HPA output backoff (OBO). The effect, on the E_b/N₀ degradation, of linearizing only the phase or only the amplitude transfer characteristic of the TWTA and the SSPA is also assessed. Correcting the phase distortion alone in both HPAs is found to reduce the E_b/N₀ degradation by less than 0.5 dB. Linearization of the amplitude characteristic alone, on the other hand, can reduce the E_b/N₀ degradation by several dBs at small OBO values (<2 dB). The optimum output backoff which minimizes the total power degradation is between 2 and 3 dB for both the TWTA and the SSPA in a terrestrial mobile channel and between 1 and 2 dB in an AWGN channel. The optimum output backoff for the PLA is 2 dB in the terrestrial channel and between 1 and 2 dB in the AWGN channel. At the optimal operation point, the power saved by linearizing the amplitude and phase characteristics of the TWTA or the SSPA is about 0.6 dB for the terrestrial mobile channel and 0.4 dB for the AWGN channel     

Performance of SDM/COFDM system in the presence of nonlinear power amplifier

The performance of Space Division Multiplexing/ Companded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (SDM/COFDM) system will be evaluated in the presence of nonlinear amplifier. The evaluation comes from decreasing high dynamic range that is resulted from characteristics of OFDM and nonlinearity of power amplifier. The high dynamic range means high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR). The reduction of dynamic range or PAPR is made by using a compander in this system, which is effective that is because of Gaussian distribution of OFDM signal where large OFDM signal only occurs infrequently. System simulation models are employed using Rapp??s nonlinear power amplification model. The simulation results show that the compander can provide better performance in comparison to a system that does not employ the compander, i.e., SDM/OFDM system. The effect of main parameter for the compander will be studied. Comparisons between the performances of our system and SDM/OFDM system that is used clipping technique for reduction of PAPR will be made. All these results are made at different modulation techniques and different sub-carriers     

Performance analysis of Viterbi decoder using channel stateinformation in COFDM system

This paper relates to the application method of channel state information (CSI) to the Viterbi (maximum likelihood) decoder in the digital terrestrial television broadcasting system. The proposed Viterbi decoder uses the CSI derived from the pilots inserted in the transmitter of the COFDM (coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system. The CSI is calculated by interpolation using the pilots in the receiver. The active real (I) and imaginary (Q) data after equalization are transferred to the branch metric calculation block that decides the euclidean distance for soft decision decoding and also the estimated CSI values are transferred to the same block. After calculating the euclidean distance for the soft decision decoding, the euclidean distance of the branch metric is multiplied by CSI. To do so, new branch metric values that consider each carrier state information are obtained. We simulated this method in Rayleigh fading defined in the ETSI standard. From the simulation, this method has better performance of about 0.15 dB to 0.7 dB and 2.2 dB to 2.9 dB in the Rayleigh channel than that of conventional soft decision Viterbi decoding with or without a bit interleaver where the constellation is QPSK, l6-QAM and 64-QAM
