Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing

Résumé

L’OFDM (orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing) est un procédé de codage de signaux numériques par répartition en fréquences orthogonales sous forme de multiples sous-porteuses. Cette technique permet de lutter contre les canaux sélectifs en fréquence en permettant une égalisation de faible complexité. Ces canaux se manifestent notamment en présence de trajets multiples et sont d'autant plus pénalisants que le débit de transmission est élevé. C’est la raison pour laquelle on trouve cette technique largement adoptée dans la plupart des applications à très haut débit. Plusieurs variantes de l'OFDM existent. Le DMT (discrete multitone modulation) fait référence à un système de transmission OFDM en bande de base. Le COFDM (Coded orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing) introduit un code correcteur d'erreurs. Le WCP-OFDM (weighted cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing) prévoit l'ajout d'un préfixe cyclique et la pondération du signal en sortie de l'émetteur afin

Recently, there has been considerable discussion about new wireless technologies and standards able to achieve high data rates. Due to the recent advances of digital signal processing and Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) technologies, the initial obstacles encountered for the implementation of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation schemes, such as massive complex multiplications and high speed memory accesses, do not exist anymore. OFDM offers strong multipath protection due to the insertion of the guard interval; in particular, the OFDM-based DVB-T standard had proved to offer excellent performance for the broadcasting of multimedia streams with bitrates over ten megabits per second in difficult terrestrial propagation channels, for fixed and portable applications. Nevertheless, for mobile scenarios, improving the receiver design is not enough to achieve error-free transmission especially in presence of deep shadow and multipath fading and some modifications of the standard can be envisaged. To address long and medium range applications like live mobile wireless television production, some further modifications are required to adapt the modulated bandwidth and fully exploit channels up to 24MHz wide. For these reasons, an extended OFDM system is proposed that offers variable bandwidth, improved protection to shadow and multipath fading and enhanced robustness thanks to the insertion of deep time-interleaving coupled with a powerful turbo codes concatenated error correction scheme. The system parameters and the receiver architecture have been described in C++ and verified with extensive simulations. In particular, the study of the receiver algorithms was aimed to achieve the optimal tradeoff between performances and complexity. Moreover, the modulation/demodulation chain has been implemented in VHDL and a prototype system has been manufactured. Ongoing field trials are demonstrating the ability of the proposed system to successfully overcome the impairments due to mobile terrestrial channels, like multipath and shadow fading. For short range applications, Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) is an efficient way to share the radio resource between multiple terminals. The main modulation parameters for a TDM system are discussed and it is shown that the 802.16a TDM OFDM physical layer fulfills the application requirements; some practical examples are given. A pre-distortion method is proposed that exploit the reciprocity of the radio channel to perform a partial channel inversion achieving improved performances with no modifications of existing receivers.

An All-Digital 1.25 Mbps 5-Subcarrier OFDM Backscatter Uplink with Delta-Sigma Modulation for Improved Spurious-Free Dynamic Range

James Daniel Rosenthal

This paper describes an all-digital backscatter modulation approach leveraging delta-sigma modulation (DSM) to improve the in-channel spectral characteristics of orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) backscatter communication. We demonstrate through numerical simulations and experimental validation that DSM can improve the spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of OFDM subcarriers generated by a low-resolution impedance digital-to-analog converter (DAC), such as an RF switch having two or four different impedance states. We present the design and validation of a prototype OFDM backscatter uplink with DSM implemented with all-digital logic in an FPGA. A single-pole-four-throw CMOS RF switch (i.e. 2-bits of impedance DAC resolution) serves as the backscatter modulator. We experimentally validated the DSM approach with a 2.4 GHz, five-subcarrier OFDM backscatter uplink and a four-times oversampling DSM at up to 1.25 Mbps. In this scenario, the DSM improved the SFDR by 43 dB within the subcarrier band while reducing the overall noise floor in the same band by 11.3 dB. These results confirm that a DSM approach can be used to control quantization noise and improve the spectral characteristics of low-resolution digital impedance modulators for backscatter communication in scenarios where in-channel SFDR is more important than wideband noise performance.

Parallel architecture for high-speed analog-to-digital conversion

Guillaume Ding

Nowadays digital signal processing systems used for radar applications, communication systems or RF measurement equipments, require very high sample-rates. Sometimes these sample-rates are beyond the possibilities offered by conventional ADCs. To overcome these limits parallel architectures have been developed. The most commonly used it the one called "time-interleaved" conversion. This technique allows to achieve very-high sample-rates with circuits working at a lower frequency. The accuracy of "time-interleaved" systems is sensitive to sample-time errors. Some calibration techniques have been developed to reduce this sensitivity. They involve very sophisticated digital signal processing and, in most of the cases, they are not directly implemented on silicon but applied on measurement results in software. The goal of this thesis is to study the feasibility of a new parallel architecture for analog-to-digital conversion. This architecture must present a higher robustness to sample-time errors. The first part of this work is dedicated to time-interleaved converter. An analysis of their sensitivity to several imperfections, such as mismatches and systematic and random sample-time error is presented. This analysis is followed by a description of time-interleaved converter evolution, since the first implemented prototype to the current state of the art of the domain. The second part of this thesis focuses on the development of the new conversion technique called "frequency-interleaved". Two different approaches are studied: the first one is based on a Fourier series decomposition of the signal to convert and the second one is based on a Walsh series decomposition. During this study, theoretical and practical aspects are faced the one with the other, to combine signal processing and microelectronics together. It appears that the Fourier series approach offers modest performances and presents serious problems of implementation. Based on this study, the design of functional blocks of a Walsh series based system is proposed.
