Most radio systems and handsets use FM analog modulation that occupies a 25-kHz channel.
Read moreWhat is the difference between OFDM and SC-FDMA?
The most obvious difference between the two schemes is that OFDMA transmits the four QPSK data symbols in parallel, one per subcarrier, while SC-FDMA transmits the four QPSK data symbols in series at four times the rate , with each data symbol occupying a wider M x 15 kHz bandwidth.
Read moreWhat is DFT spread OFDM?
The DFT-spread OFDM is a form of single-carrier technique that possesses almost all advantages of the multicarrier OFDM technique (such as high spectral efficiency, flexible bandwidth allocation, low sampling rate, and low-complexity equalization).
Read moreWhat is the advantage of single carrier FDMA comparing to OFDMA?
Owing to its inherent single carrier structure, a prominent advantage of SC-FDMA over OFDM and OFDMA is that its transmit signal has a lower peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) , resulting in relaxed design parameters in the transmit path of a subscriber unit.
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).
Read moreWhat is LTE OFDM?
Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), is a frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) scheme used as a digital multi-carrier modulation method . OFDM meets the LTE requirement for spectrum flexibility and enables cost-efficient solutions for very wide carriers with high peak rates.
