Evaluation of all-optical demultiplexing in millimeter-wave subcarrier-system for wireless communication
2006
In this paper, a scheme for multiplexing millimeter-wave carriers on a single optical carrier and using an all-optical millimeter-wave demultiplexer is presented. The optical demultiplexing of radio-over-fiber signals is based on dual sideband modulation with suppressed optical carrier combined with the filtering properties of dual over-written fiber Bragg gratings. The performance of the system is investigated using a single optical carrier and independent data modulated millimeter-wave signals at 20 and 40 GHz. The signals are transmitted over optical fiber, demultiplexed and wirelessly distributed to a mobile unit. It is found that performance of the demultiplexing using fiber Bragg grat…
Combining super-orthogonal space-frequency trellis coding, constellation shaping by shell mapping, and OFDM for high data rate broadband mobile commu…
2014
In this paper, we seamlessly combine three transmission techniques to design an improved performance broadband mobile communication system with two transmit antennas. In so doing, we took inspiration from the V.34 data modem toolbox designed for public switched telephone network. We modified the constellation shaping by shell mapping algorithm to apply it only to the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) frame sent by the first antenna, in such a way that the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is also reduced for the second antenna. We use a 24-point quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signal constellation on each subcarrier, while the reference system employs 16 QAM for the s…
Performance Analysis of Cooperative Communication Systems with Imperfect Channel Estimation
2009
This paper investigates the effects of channel estimation errors on the symbol-error-rate (SER) performance of a cooperative communication system operating in an amplify-and- forward (AF) mode. A pilot symbol assisted modulation scheme with linear minimum mean square estimation (LMMSE) is used for the channel estimation. An accurate and easy-to-evaluate SER expression is presented for uncoded cooperative communication systems with quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) and phase-shift keying (PSK) constellations. Numerical simulations are conducted to verify the correctness of the proposed analytical formulation. It is shown that the performance loss caused by channel estimation errors incre…
Reducing the peak and average power for OFDM systems using QAM by constellation shaping
2009
In this paper, we present a shell mapping scheme to reduce the peak and average power of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals using quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) by constellation shaping. Our approach can be considered as an extension of the shell mapping technique introduced originally in the V.34 recommendation of ITU-T. The shell mapping method uses multiple cost functions, each having the OFDM block length N as a parameter. The cost functions are presented in closed form for any N. The main advantage of the proposed scheme is that the peak and average power can be reduced without sacrificing the data rate, and no side information is needed at the receive sid…
Characterization of dual-polarization analogue radio over fiber fronthaul for LTE C-RAN architecture
2016
En este artículo se presentan los resultados de la medición ampliada de la radio analógica de doble polarización (DP) sobre fibra (RoF) en una arquitectura de red de acceso radio en la nube (C-RAN) de evolución a largo plazo (LTE). Esta técnica se propone para las conexiones de fibra entre las oficinas centrales y las estaciones base remotas. Se investigan varias longitudes de fibra óptica para determinar el mejor rendimiento del sistema en términos de magnitud de vector de error (EVM) y tasa de error de bit. La distancia máxima alcanzada para el caso de un ancho de banda LTE de 20 MHz es de 50 km, mostrando un valor de EVM admisible del 8,5% a la frecuencia de radio de 2,6 GHz cuando se ut…

En aquest article es proposa un nou sistema híbrid de ràdio sobre fibra (RoF) i òptica d’espai lliure (FSO) basat en la transmissió de senyals òptics OFDM (OOFDM) per proporcionar enllaços de comunicació sense fils òptics d’alta capacitat.
