Abstract A wideband down conversion ring mixer is proposed for multi band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MB-OFDM) system in 180 nm CMOS technology. The mixer is essentially used in a heterodyne wireless receiver to enhance the selectivity of the system. Being a nonlinear system, the mixer dominates the overall performance of the system. The design of down conversion mixer is the most challenging part of a receive chain. Wideband impedance matching always remains a challenge in any radio frequency integrated circuit design. This paper presents the design of a ring mixer with high linearity, wideband impedance matching using differential resistive impedance matching and without using any DC bias. The proposed mixer is tuned for a frequency of 3.432 GHz of band 1 of the MB-OFDM system. Mixer core is based on the FET ring mixer topology. The mixer is implemented in 180 nm CMOS technology. The mixer achieves the minimum conversion loss of 10.49 dB, 1 dB compression point (P1) of 12.40 dBm, third order input intercept point (IIP3) of 12.01 dBm, a minimum SSB noise figure of 8.99 dB, and S 11 of less than -10 dB over the frequency range of 0 to 13.61 GHz . The layout of the mixer records an active area of 183.75 μm 2 .

Instability of the local oscillator causes phase noise – a phenomenon that is a disadvantage and is considered to be a major obstacle in the functioning of coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) systems. An attempt has been made in this paper to reduce the effects of common phase errors generated by phase noise. In this paper, a least mean square (LMS) based algorithm is proposed for estimation of phase noise. Using this proposed algorithm, the major problem of phase ambiguity caused by cycle slip is avoided and the bit error rate is greatly improved. Further, there is no requirement for modifying the frame structure of OFDM using this algorithm. A CO-OFDM system with the 8-PSK technique is used to implement the algorithm concerned. Furthermore, the algorithm, using the 8-PSK modulation technique, is analyzed and compared with the existing QPSK technique and with other algorithms. The investigations reveal that 8-PSK outperforms existing LMS algorithms using other techniques and significantly reduces the bit error rate.

Due to its good orthogonality, slantlet transform (SLT) is used in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems to reduce intersymbol interference (ISI) and intercarrier interference (ICI). This eliminates the need for cyclic prefix (CP) and increases the spectral efficiency of the design. Finite Radon transform (FRAT) mapper has the ability to increase orthogonality of subcarriers, is nonsensitive to channel parameters variations, and has a small constellation energy compared with conventional fast-Fourier-transform- (FFT-) based OFDM. It is also able to work as a good interleaver, which significantly reduces the bit error rate (BER). In this paper both FRAT mapping technique and SLT modulator are implemented in a new design of an OFDM system. The new structure was tested and compared with conventional FFT-based OFDM, Radon transform-based OFDM, and SLT-based OFDM for additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel, flat fading channel (FFC), and multipath selective fading channel (SFC). Simulation tests were generated for different channel parameters values. The obtained results showed that the proposed system has increased the spectral efficiency, reduced ISI and ICI, and improved BER performance compared with other systems.

Abstract The main drawback in the performance of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is the higher Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the OFDM signals at the transmitter side. Companding is a well-known technique useful for reducing PAPR in the OFDM signal. This paper proposes a new nonlinear companding scheme that transforms the magnitude of Rayleigh distributed OFDM signal of specific degree into trapezoidal distribution. Additional design parameter is used in the proposed companding scheme to make the companding function more flexible. In the designed OFDM system the companding function has more degree of freedom which improves the PAPR and bit error rate (BER) parameters of the designed system. It has been demonstrated that the designed companding scheme provides more flexibility to accomplish an optimum trade-off between the performance parameters PAPR and BER of the designed OFDM system.

Clipping And Filtering

This paper investigates clipping and filtering techniques in reducing peak average power ratio (PAPR) of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system. The concept of OFDM is to split a high speed serial data into parallel data at a lower speed, then the parallel data carried by mutually orthogonal subcarriers. The high of PAPR is one of disadvantages of OFDM system. The high PAPR can damages the form of OFDM and reduces its performance. The purpose of this study is to reduce PAPR using simulation. OFDM was simulated with and without clipping filtering then compared.  The methods used to reduce PAPR was clipping and filtering technique. Clipping and filtering technique operates by clipping the output of inverse Fourier transform that exceed the threshold. Graphics PAPR vs. CCDF was used to evaluate the performance of OFDM systems. PAPR for OFDM system using Fourier transform when CCDF = 10-3 is 11,2 dB, with classical clipping PAPR was 4,1 dB and PAPR 4,6 dB when with deep clipping.

Multiwavelet Transform

Discrete multiwavelet critical-sampling transform (DMWCST) has been proposed instead of fast Fourier transform (FFT) in the realization of the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. The proposed structure further reduces the level of interference and improves the bandwidth efficiency through the elimination of the cyclic prefix due to the good orthogonality and time-frequency localization properties of the multiwavelet transform. The proposed system was simulated using MATLAB to allow various parameters of the system to be varied and tested. The performance of DMWCST-based OFDM (DMWCST-OFDM) was compared with that of the discrete wavelet transform-based OFDM (DWT-OFDM) and the traditional FFT-based OFDM (FFT-OFDM) over flat fading and frequency-selective fading channels. Results obtained indicate that the performance of the proposed DMWCST-OFDM system achieves significant improvement compared to those of DWT-OFDM and FFT-OFDM systems. DMWCST improves the performance of the OFDM system by a factor of 1.5–2.5 dB and 13–15.5 dB compared with the DWT and FFT, respectively. Therefore the proposed system offers higher data rate in wireless mobile communications.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is the important modulation of choice for fourthgeneration broadband multimedia wireless systems. This paper is focused on the problem of reducing the intercarrierinterference (ICI) and signal to noise ratio in the transmission over OFDM using various pulse shaping methods. Here we have performed a detailed performance comparison of various pulse shaping functions used in OFDM System with Carrier Frequency Offset. They appear to be suitable for transmission in OFDM systems with carrier frequency offset. The results obtained by analysis show that the performance improvement over conventional pulse shapes, are significant for reducing average intercarrier-interference (ICI) power and increased ratio of average signal power to average ICI power (SIR).

Peak Value

Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) has been known to be a common problem in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). The peak value of power signals has contributed to other problems, thus the implementation of OFDM system in many wireless applications has been growing slowly. There are many techniques being discussed to reduce the PAPR in OFDM systems where one of them is reduction through scrambling. In this paper, a technique that is based on scrambling method in order to reduce high PAPR in OFDM system is introduced. This proposed technique is called the Selective Codeword Shift (SCS). The key idea of SCS is to produce a scramble data sequence where the candidate with minimum PAPR will then be selected for transmission. This has shown an improvement in reducing PAPR as compared to original OFDM signals and the conventional Selective Mapping (SLM) technique with 29.5% improvement. This technique also has the advantage of lower computational complexity as compared to conventional SLM where no multiplication of the phase factor involved in the process and no explicit side information was needed to retrieve the transmitted data at the receiver.

This work introduces a process to optimize the design of a down-conversion mixer using an innovative strategy based on the gm/ID methodology. The proposed process relies on a set of technology-oriented lookup tables to optimize the trade-off between gain, power dissipation, noise, and distortion. The design is implemented using a 0.13 μm CMOS technology, and to the best of our knowledge, it possesses the best (post-layout simulation) figure of merit (FOM) among the works presented in literature. The FOM is defined as the product of gain and third-order intercept divided the product between average noise figure and power dissipation. Finally, the core of the mixer takes only 31 µm by 28 µm and it draws a current of 1 mA from the 1.5 V DC supply.
