Abstract

After a short description of the principles of a multicarrier COFDM (Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme some simulation results concerning bit- and packet error rates gained with three different characteristic multipath channels are presented and discussed. Aspects of COFDM design principles and complexity of the modulation and demodulation part of the system, as well as effects of the non-linearity of amplifiers will be addressed.
