In the proposed scheme, ZPN-OFDM non-zero part is damped to reduce its energy, thus the mutual interference power in-between the data and training blocks with conservative the pseudo-noise conventional properties required for channel estimation or synchronization. The motivation of this paper is the OFDM long guard interval working in wide dispersion channels, whereas a significant energy is wasted when the conventional ZPN-OFDM is used as well as the BER performance is also degraded. Moreover, the proposed scheme doesn’t duplicate the guard interval to solve the ZPN-OFDM spectrum efficiency loss problem. Both detailed performance analysis and simulation results show that the proposed DZPNOFDM scheme can, indeed, offer significant bit error rate, spectrum efficiency and energy efficiency improvement.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Damped Zero-Pseudorandom Noise OFDM Systems}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/107757/PDF/58_1236.pdf}, doi={10.24425/123542}, keywords={Time reversal (TR), channel estimation (CE), compressed sensing (CS), orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)}, }
