Abstract

Bit error rate (BER) of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) corrupted by traditional jamming has already been studied. In order to save jamming power and figure out the optimal jamming against OFDM, BER of OFDM corrupted by two-dimensional jamming is investigated. In this paper, the accurate BER formula of MQAM and OFDM/MQAM under two-dimensional jamming and AWGN is derived. Based on the BER formula, optimal jamming against 16QAM and OFDM/16QAM was taken as an example for analyzing. Simulation results verified that it is not always optimal to match the jamming signal to the victim signal. Theory derivation and simulation all verify the result that OFDM/QPSK is the optimal jamming against OFDM/16QAM.
