Carrier-phase synchronization can be approached in a
general manner by estimating the multiplicative distortion (MD) to which
a baseband received signal in an RF or coherent optical transmission
system is subjected. This paper presents a unified modeling and
estimation of the MD in finite-alphabet d ...
To fully utilize the available spectrum for a wireless communication
system it is feasible to adapt to different situations
on the channel. In this paper a flexible OFDM
transmitter is presented together with basic theory behind
OFDM transmission. It is shown that high flexibility can
be obtained wi ...
Mobile communication devices like smart phones or tablet PCs enable us to
consume information at every location and at every time. The rapid development
of new applications and new services and the demand to access data in real time
create an increasing throughput demand. The data have to be transmi ...
The growing interest for high data rate wireless communications over the last few decades
gave rise to the emergence of a number of wideband wireless systems. The resulting scarcity
of frequency spectrum has been forcing wireless system designers to develop methods that
will push the spectral effici ...
Optical communication technology has been extensively developed over the
last 50 years, since the proposed idea by Kao and Hockham [1]. However, only
during the last 15 years have the concepts of communication foundation, that
is, the modulation and demodulation techniques, been applied. This is pos ...
OSCILLATORS are key building blocks in integrated transceivers. In wired and
wireless communication terminals, the receiver front-end selects, amplifies and
converts the desired high-frequency signal to baseband. At baseband the signal can
then be converted into the digital domain for further data p ...
his research aims at creating broadband tunable, fully integrated filters for the application of
cognitive radio and signal classification receivers. The approach under study is the N-path filter
technique which is capable of translating a baseband impedance to a reference frequency creating
a tunab ...
All wireless communication standards, existing and under development, adopt or
consider adopting orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) as the
modulation technique. It is clear that OFDM has become the definitive modulation
scheme in current and future wireless communication systems.
