  3. Problem statement and proposed solution • Next generation mobile communication systems will operate on highly dispersive channel environments: • Very dense urban areas  High multipath delay spreads • Very high carrier frequencies + high mobile velocities  High Doppler spreads • OFDMA/OFDM rely on frequency badly localized waveforms •  High sensitivity to Doppler spread and frequency synchronization errors due to multiple access  Increased inter-carrier and -user interference •  Significant out-of-band emissions  Requirement of large guard bands with respect to other adjacent systems •  Optimization of transmit and receive waveforms for QoS optimization through interference reduction

  13. Radio Mobile Channel Characteristics: Sensitivity to Delay Spread 3/3 • The channel delay spread Tm is independent of the transmission symbol period T • Reduced bandwidth w  • Pro: Increased T  Better immunity (reduced sensitivity) to ISI • Con: Reduced symbol rate R •  Aggregate together as many reduced bandwidth F subcarriers as needed to cover the whole transmission bandwidth w: • Reduced subcarrier bandwidth F  Increased symbol period T = 1/F  Reduced sensitivity to ISI • Unchanged global bandwidth w  Unchanged transmission rate

  15. Delay-Spread ISI Immune Communications: Guard Interval 1/6 Frequency (f) Tg ≥ Tm F w fc Symbol occupancy FT > 1  Reduced symbol rate T Guard interval insertion Tg Time (t)

  16. Delay-Spread ISI Immune Communications: Guard Interval 2/6 • No guard interval insertion  • F = 1/T  Symbol occupancy FT = 1  No symbol rate loss • Still some ISI which can be reduced by • reducing F, • or equivalently, increasing T = 1/F • or equivalently, increasing the number of subcarriers N = w/F • ISI immune communications  • Perfectly ISI immune communications • T = 1/F+Tg  FT > 1  Symbol rate loss • Symbol rate loss reduced by reducing F, or equivalently increasing N

  19. Delay-Spread ISI Immune Communications: Guard Interval 5/6 Frequency (f) F w FT  N=16  T  Total duration  TgTm Time (t)

  20. Delay-Spread ISI Immune Communications: Guard Interval 6/6 • Increasing the number of subcarriers N, or equivalently, reducing the subcarrier spacing F: • (Pro) Increases spectrum efficiency (FT) for a given tolerance to channel delay spread (Tg Tm) • (Pro) Increases tolerance to multiple access time synchronization errors (Tg) for a given spectrum efficiency (FT unchanged) • (Con) Increases sensitivity to propagation channel Doppler spread Bd Increase Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI) • (Con) Increase sensitivity to multiple access frequency synchronization errors

  24. Considerations on Subcarrier Number • The Doppler spread Bd is proportional to the mobile speed v and the carrier frequency fc  Any increase in carrier frequency leads to an increase in Doppler spread • Any increase in the number of subcarriers: • Increases the guard interval Tg and the symbol period T for a constant spectrum efficiency 1/FT • (Pro)  Better tolerance to channel delay spread  Reduced ISI • (Pro)  Slight decrease in spectrum efficiency due to the insertion of a guard interval • Decreases the subcarrier spacing F • (Con)  Increased sensitivity to the Doppler spread Bd  Increased ICI • (Con)  Reduced tolerance to multiple access frequency synchronization errors

  25. Sensitivity to Multiple Access Frequency Synchronization Errors 1/2 Farthest mobile Perfect synchronization  No Inter-User Interference (IUI) Power Nearest mobile Large Power gap Frequency (f) Received symbols: Perfect user synchronization

  26. Sensitivity to Multiple Access Frequency Synchronization Errors 2/2 Farthest mobile Imperfect synchronization  Large Inter-User Interference (IUI) Power Nearest mobile Large Power gap Large IUI Frequency (f) Received symbols: Imperfect user synchronization

  27. Quality of Service Evaluation and Optimization: SINR 1/2 Frequency (f) F User 1 IUI User 2 ISI T ICI Time (t) SINR: Signal-to-Noise Plus Interference Ratio

  28. Quality of Service Evaluation and Optimization: SINR 2/2 • Signal-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR): • Conventional multicarrier use badly frequency localized waveforms: • (con)  High sensitivity to Doppler spread and frequency synchronization errors • (con)  Out-of-band emissions  Large guard band to protect other systems •  Transmit and receive waveforms optimization through SINR maximization: • (pro)  Minimized ISI + ISI + IUI  Better transmission quality •  Reduced out-of-band emissions  Small guard bands required to protect other systems
