OFDM ADVANTAGES
OFDM is spectrally efficient
Orthogonality & IFFT/FFT operation ensures that sub-carriers
do not interfere with each other.
23
OFDM ADVANTAGES
OFDM has excellent robustness in multi-path environments.
Cyclic prefix preserves orthogonality between sub-
carriers.
Cyclic prefix allows the receiver to capture multi-
path energy more efficiently.

Selection of OFDM parameters
Bandwidth, bit rate, delay spread
Guard time Tg
2 to 4 times delay spread 2σ to 4σ
depends on the order of modulation employed
Symbol duration > Guard time to maximize SNR
More subcarriers,
subcarriers, smaller spacing, implementation complexity, more sensitivity
to phase noise & frequency offset, high PAPR
Symbol duration 5 x Guard time ( 1- 1-dB SNR loss )
TFFT = 5 x Tg Tofdm = TFFT + Tg
Subcarrier spacing ∆f = 1 / TFFT
Number of subcarriers = 3-
3-dB BW / ∆f
29
Example :
Bit rate = 20 Mbps
Tolerable delay spread = 200 ns Given requirements
Bandwidth < 15 MHz
Tg = 800 ns
Tofdm = 5 x Tg + Tg = 4.8 µsec
