Pulse Shaping in OFDM Based Single Frequency Networks

In systems using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) all transmitters in a radio broadcasting network may transmit identical signals in the same frequency block, forming a so called Single Frequency Network (SFN). The simultaneous transmission creates a severe artificial multipath propagation causing interference at the receiver. This interference consists not only by intersymbol interference (ISI), but also interchannel interference (ICI) due to orthogonality losses between OFDM scheme's subcarriers. A method that is often used to counter the self-interference is to insert a guard interval between consecutive OFDM frames combined with an increased symbol duration. The receiver in an SFN is normally experiencing a diversity gain of receiving several signals. Doubts concerning the performance has been raised due to the OFDM scheme's sensitivity to frequency errors. If the received signals are exposed to different carrier offsets it will lead to ICI, resulting into reduced coverage. In this paper we apply pulse shaping to reduce the effects of ISI and ICI. Pulse shaping of the transmitted OFDM signal is shown to give significant reductions in self-interference. It is hereby possible to achieve the same coverage with a reduced amount of transmitters. The system also becomes less sensitive to time and frequency synchronisation errors. A method to analyse the performance for time limited pulse shapes is presented using weight functions describing the amount of useful and interfering powers. In the receiver analysis, generalised expressions are given using Fourier transforms and series.

Planning aspects of satellite and terrestrial digital sound broadcasting

DAB is one of the most promising sound broadcasting techniques for the future. It will soon start terrestrial operations, and later on will be used for satellite broadcasting. The Eureka 147 DAB system is based on a set of well-demonstrated techniques, in particular the MUSICAM coding, adopted by MPEG, and OFDM modulation. It allows great spectrum efficiency, profiting from the single frequency network concept, one of the most interesting characteristics of the system. However, frequency problems remain a difficulty, as DAB must either examine the possibility of entering existing heavily used frequency bands or wait until the new frequency bands allocated by WARC 92 become fully available. For terrestrial broadcasting, most interested operators, broadcasters and manufacturers are convinced that appropriate solutions will be found and that DAB will start operational services from about 1996. In Europe, a CEPT planning conference will address the matter in 1995. Satellite broadcasting may come later. Short wave broadcasters examine possibilities to replace short waves, the quality of which is so poor, by digital satellite broadcasting. From the frequency spectrum point of view, this raises the difficulty of sharing frequency allocations with terrestrial applications.

Inter-Carrier Interference Cancellation for OFDM Systems with Macrodiversity and Multiple Frequency Offsets

Macrodiversity provides improved coverage in wireless communications. It isused in single frequency networks (SFN), and in some cellular systems, whena mobile is in a soft handoff. The combination of OFDM and macrodiversity isvery attractive for the ability of OFDM to cope with delay spread resultingfrom macrodiversity. However, such system is very sensitive to poor frequencysynchronization among transmitters, which results in multiple frequencyoffsets. These cause inter-carrier interference (ICI), which severely degradesperformance. In this paper we quantify the degradation, providing expressionsfor the receiver SINR, and find the optimum receiver frequencysynchronization. Furthermore, we propose to mitigate ICI degradation usinglinear and decision feedback interference cancellation. In each case, weprovide a solution using both the decorrelating and the MMSE criteria.Simulation results show that, for macrodiversity OFDM, our approach resultsin significantly improved performance and robustness to frequency offsets.
