    Study Notes

    Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)

    • Orthogonal carriers in OFDM enable simultaneous transmission of multiple signals, increasing the data rate and spectral efficiency.
    • OFDM is resistant to frequency selective fading due to the presence of cyclic prefix, which combats intersymbol interference (ISI).

    Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) in OFDM

    • The main problem associated with PAPR in OFDM is that it leads to inefficient use of power amplifiers, reducing the system's power efficiency.

    Multiple Access in OFDM and SC-FDMA

    • Multiple access in OFDM and SC-FDMA is achieved through orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), where different users are assigned different subcarriers.

    Capacity Expansion in Communication Systems

    • The technique that has created great expansion in the capacity of communication systems is Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM).
