Glossary Term: OFDM Definition. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing : A method for multiplexing signals which divides the available bandwidth into a series of frequencies known as tones. Flarion uses the 5GHz channel and divides each channel into 400 discrete tones (each at slightly different frequency).
Read moreHow OFDM is used in LTE?
LTE uses a pre-coded version of OFDM called Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) in the uplink . This is to compensate for a drawback with normal OFDM, which has a very high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR).
Read moreWhat is OFDM symbol in LTE?
One of the key elements of LTE is the use of OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex ) as the signal bearer, as well as OFDM’s associated access schemes, OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) and SC-FDMA (Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access).
