Analysis of ICI cancellation scheme in OFDM systems with phase noise

Phase noise in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems destroys the orthogonality of the subcarriers and inter-carrier interference (ICI) is caused. In this paper, the ICI self-cancellation scheme is adopted to combat the ICI caused by phase noise in OFDM systems. Moreover, the error coefficients are defined and the theoretical expressions of carrier to interference ratio (C/I) with and without the ICI self-cancellation scheme are separately derived. From the simulation results, it is verified that the ICI self-cancellation scheme obviously decreases the amount of the ICI caused by phase noise and the improvement of C/I could reach 10 dB when the normalized 3 dB bandwidth of phase noise is 0.4. However, the convolutional coding OFDM (COFDM) system could supply more performance gain at the expense of increasing decoder complexity compared to OFDM system with the ICI self-cancellation scheme in the frequency-selective channel.     

Joint ICI Cancellation and PAPR Reduction in OFDM Systems Without Side Information

Intercarrier interference (ICI) self-cancellation, new ICI self-cancellation and conjugate cancellation schemes have been proposed in the literature to mitigate the effect of ICI. In this paper we have performed the mathematical analysis of PAPR performances for ICI self-cancellation, new ICI self-cancellation and ICI conjugate cancellation schemes and it is found that PAPR performance of these schemes are either very close to or poorer than the standard OFDM signal, which necessitates the requirement of PAPR reduction. After realizing the need of PAPR reduction in ICI cancellation schemes, we have proposed a joint scheme to reduce ICI and PAPR simultaneously. In this paper, we have proposed a multipoint partial transmit sequence (PTS) scheme, to improve the PAPR performance of ICI cancellation schemes. The proposed multipoint PTS based PAPR reduction scheme is coupled with ICI cancellation schemes in such a way that CIR performance of these schemes after coupling remains unchanged and no SI is required at the receiver to recover the original data signal. A comparison of CIR and PAPR performances for ICI cancellation schemes with and without PAPR reduction is also presented in this paper. The analytical results of CIR and PAPR performances for conventional ICI cancellation and joint ICI cancellation and PAPR reduction confirm the outperformance of the proposed scheme. We have also evaluated the SER performance of the joint schemes over additive white Gaussian noise and fading channels and presented a comparison with other existing schemes.     

An Enhanced Inter-carrier Interference Reduction Scheme for OFDM System with Phase Noise

Inter-carrier interference (ICI) reduction techniques achieve a better carrier-to-interference ratio (CIR) in OFDM system in the presence of synchronisation errors. However, the frequency diversity available on the frequency-selective channel has not been utilised by conventional ICI reduction techniques. In this paper, the frequency diversity of ICI reduction methods in the presence of phase noise over frequency-selective fading channels is analysed. Based on the analysis, an ICI reduction technique is proposed, enhanced symmetric data-conjugate (ESDC) technique, to enhance the frequency diversity in multipath fading channel. The carrier-to-interference ratio (CIR) and common phase error (CPE) of the proposed ICI reduction scheme are derived and the BER performance of the proposed system is compared with the conventional ICI reduction methods such as adjacent data-conjugate (ADC) and symmetric data-conjugate (SDC) methods. Simulation results reveal that the proposed ICI reduction scheme provides an improvement in BER performance over a fading channel and it is also better than conventional ICI reduction techniques in the presence of ICI due to phase noise.     

Intercarrier interference self-cancellation scheme for OFDM mobilecommunication systems

For orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) communication systems, the frequency offsets in mobile radio channels distort the orthogonality between subcarriers resulting in intercarrier interference (ICI). This paper studies an efficient ICI cancellation method termed ICI self-cancellation scheme. The scheme works in two very simple steps. At the transmitter side, one data symbol is modulated onto a group of adjacent subcarriers with a group of weighting coefficients. The weighting coefficients are designed so that the ICI caused by the channel frequency errors can be minimized. At the receiver side, by linearly combining the received signals on these subcarriers with proposed coefficients, the residual ICI contained in the received signals can then be further reduced. The carrier-to-interference power ratio (CIR) can be increased by 15 and 30 dB when the group size is two or three, respectively, for a channel with a constant frequency offset. Although the redundant modulation causes a reduction in bandwidth efficiency, it can be compensated, for example, by using larger signal alphabet sizes. Simulations show that OFDM systems using the proposed ICI self-cancellation scheme perform much better than standard systems while having the same bandwidth efficiency in multipath mobile radio channels with large Doppler frequencies     

Efficient ICI Self‐Cancellation Scheme for OFDM Systems

In this paper, we present a new inter‐carrier interference (ICI) self‐cancellation scheme — namely, ISC scheme — for orthogonal frequency‐division multiplexing systems to reduce the ICI generated from phase noise (PHN) and residual frequency offset (RFO). The proposed scheme comprises a new ICI cancellation mapping (ICM) scheme at the transmitter and an appropriate method of combining the received signals at the receiver. In the proposed scheme, the transmitted signal is transformed into a real signal through the new ICM using the real property of the transmitted signal; the fast‐varying PHN and RFO are estimated and compensated. Therefore, the ICI caused by fast‐varying PHN and RFO is significantly suppressed. We also derive the carrier‐to‐interference power ratio (CIR) of the proposed scheme by using the symmetric conjugate property of the ICI weighting function and then compare it with those of conventional schemes. Through simulation results, we show that the proposed ISC scheme has a higher CIR and better bit error rate performance than the conventional schemes.     

Theoretical analysis of ICI self-cancellation in OFDM systems over Rayleigh flat-fading channels

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been widely used for its robustness against multipath fading and low-complexity implementation. However, OFDM system, especially with large number of subcarriers and high modulation order, is severely affected by the phase noise of oscillators and carrier frequency offset (CFO). On the other hand, self-cancellation schemes have received a lot of attention due to their simple implementation and high efficiency to suppress inter-carrier interference (ICI) in OFDM systems. Among those ICI self-cancellation methods, symmetric conjugate symbol repetition (SCSR) has been proven to have the best bit error ratio (BER) performance for phase noise suppression. In this paper, the performance of OFDM systems with SCSR ICI self-cancellation in the presence of both phase noise (PHN) and CFO are investigated, and analytical expressions are derived to calculate error probability evaluated by symbol error ratio (SER) over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh flat fading channels. An approach of second order approximation of PHN/CFO has been performed to estimate the residual ICI, which could provide more accurate results. Simulation results show perfect agreement with those obtained by theoretical analysis, which could be used to estimate OFDM system error probability, facilitating the design of the overall system.     

Joint phase/amplitude estimation and symbol detection for wireless ICI self-cancellation coded OFDM systems

OFDM has been applied in the current wireless local-area networks and digital video broadcasting systems since it has the advantage over the conventional single-carrier modulation schemes when the frequency-selective fadings are present. Nevertheless, intercarrier-interference (ICI) due to Doppler frequency drift, phase offset, local oscillator frequency drift, and multipath fading will be a severe problem in OFDM systems. Previous ICI self-cancellation coding schemes can greatly reduce the ICI, but they are very sensitive to the phase ambiguity, which is due to the composite effect of the phase offset, the multipath fading and the local frequency drift. In this paper, the phase ambiguity and amplitude ambiguity problems in ICI self-cancellation coded OFDM receivers will be formulated and discussed. Then, a novel receiver which combines the current ICI self-cancellation coding techniques with a new expectation-maximization-based joint phase/amplitude estimation and symbol detection scheme is proposed. The outstanding performance of this proposed scheme is shown and compared with other existing methods at different noise levels through OFDM simulations.     

An Improved ICI Reduction Method in OFDM Communication System

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a promising technique for the broadband wireless communication system. However, the inter-sub-carrier-interference (ICI) produced by the phase noise of transceiver local oscillator is a serious problem. Bit error rate (BER) performance is degraded because the orthogonal properties between the sub-carriers are broken down. In this paper, ICI self-cancellation of data-conjugate method is studied to reduce ICI effectively. CPE (common phase error), ICI and CIR (carrier to interference power ratio) are derived and discussed by the linear approximation of the phase noise. Then, the system performance of the data-conjugate method is compared with those of the original OFDM and the conventional data-conversion method. As results, it can be shown that CPE becomes zero in the OFDM of the data-conjugate method. Besides, in the OFDM system with phase noise, the data-conjugate method can make remarkable improvement of the BER performance and it is better than the data-conversion method and the original OFDM with or without convolution coding.     

Pilot-free dynamic phase and amplitude estimations for wireless ICI self-cancellation coded OFDM systems

OFDM has the advantage over the conventional single-carrier modulation schemes in the presence of frequency-selective fadings. Nevertheless, intercarrier-interference (ICI) due to Doppler frequency drift, phase offset, local oscillator frequency drift, and sampling clock offset will be a severe problem in the wireless OFDM systems. Previous ICI self-cancellation coding schemes can greatly reduce the ICI, but they are very sensitive to the phase ambiguity, which is due to the composite effect of the phase offset, the multipath fading and the local oscillator frequency drift. In this paper, a novel receiver which combines the current ICI self-cancellation coding techniques with a new pilot-free joint phase/amplitude estimation and symbol detection scheme is proposed. Based on the energy modulation or the irregular symbol constellation, our new technique does not have any requirement of pilot symbols and it can operate on all kinds of phase error ranges. The proposed scheme is promising in comparison with other existing methods at different noise levels through OFDM simulations.
