TL;DR: A discrete multitone (DMT) transceiver design for high bit rate digital subscriber line (HDSL) access is presented and analyzed and is an excellent candidate for HDSL implementation.
Abstract: A discrete multitone (DMT) transceiver design for high bit rate digital subscriber line (HDSL) access is presented and analyzed. The DMT transmitter and receiver structure and algorithms are detailed, and the computational requirements of DMT for HDSL are estimated. At a sampling rate of 640 kHz, using an appropriate combination of a short finite-impulse-response (FIR) equalizer and a length-512 DMT system, 1.6 Mb/s data transmission is possible within the carrier serving area (CSA) at an error rate of 10/sup -7/ on a single twisted pair. A significant performance margin can be achieved when two coordinated twisted pairs are used to deliver a total data rate of 1.6 Mb/s. In terms of a performance-per-computation figure of merit, the DMT system is an excellent candidate for HDSL implementation. >

TL;DR: In this contribution the transmission of M-PSK and M-QAM modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signals over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel is considered and the degradation of the bit error rate is evaluated.
Abstract: In this contribution the transmission of M-PSK and M-QAM modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signals over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel is considered. The degradation of the bit error rate (BER), caused by the presence of carrier frequency offset and carrier phase noise is analytically evaluated. It is shown that for a given BER degradation, the values of the frequency offset and the linewidth of the carrier generator that are allowed for OFDM are orders of magnitude smaller than for single carrier systems carrying the same bit rate. >

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give a tutorial overview of OFDM and highlight the aspects that are likely to be important in optical applications, and discuss the constraints imposed by single mode optical fiber, multimode optical fiber and optical wireless.
Abstract: Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a modulation technique which is now used in most new and emerging broadband wired and wireless communication systems because it is an effective solution to intersymbol interference caused by a dispersive channel. Very recently a number of researchers have shown that OFDM is also a promising technology for optical communications. This paper gives a tutorial overview of OFDM highlighting the aspects that are likely to be important in optical applications. To achieve good performance in optical systems OFDM must be adapted in various ways. The constraints imposed by single mode optical fiber, multimode optical fiber and optical wireless are discussed and the new forms of optical OFDM which have been developed are outlined. The main drawbacks of OFDM are its high peak to average power ratio and its sensitivity to phase noise and frequency offset. The impairments that these cause are described and their implications for optical systems discussed.

TL;DR: The authors discuss the potential of OFDM signaling, with its limitations and inherent problems, as well as another potential technique that has so far been overlooked: single-carrier transmission with frequency- domain equalization, and introduces coded-OFDM (COFDM), which makes use of channel coding and frequency-domain interleaving.
Abstract: The authors discuss the potential of OFDM signaling, with its limitations and inherent problems, as well as another potential technique that has so far been overlooked: single-carrier transmission with frequency-domain equalization. The carrier synchronisation issue is dealt with before the authors introduce coded-OFDM (COFDM), which makes use of channel coding and frequency-domain interleaving. >

TL;DR: This article develops a systematic discrete-time framework and designs novel systems for single- and multiuser wireless multicarrier communications-a field rich in signal processing challenges that holds great potential in various applications including audio/video broadcasting, cable television, modem design, multimedia services, mobile local area networks, and future-generation wideband cellular systems.
Abstract: Relying on basic tools such as eigensignals of linear time-invariant systems, linear and circular block convolution, and fast Fourier transforms (FFTs), this article develops a systematic discrete-time framework and designs novel systems for single- and multiuser wireless multicarrier communications-a field rich in signal processing challenges that holds great potential in various applications including audio/video broadcasting, cable television, modem design, multimedia services, mobile local area networks, and future-generation wideband cellular systems. Wireless multicarrier (MC) communication systems utilize multiple complex exponentials as information-bearing carriers. MC transmissions thus retain their shape and orthogonality when propagating through linear time-dispersive media, precisely as eigensignals do when they pass through linear time-invariant (LTI) systems.

Abstract: The general technique of parallel transmission on many carriers, called multicarrier modulation (MCM), is explained. The performance that can be achieved on an undistorted channel and algorithms for achieving that performance are discussed. Ways of dealing with channel impairments and of improving the performance through coding are described, and implementation methods are considered. Duplex operation of MCM and the possible use of this on the general switched telephone network are examined. >

TL;DR: This paper attempts to present a comprehensive tutorial survey of the development of efficient modulation techniques for bandlimited channels, such as telephone channels, with principal emphasis on coded modulation techniques, in which there is an explosion of current interest.
Abstract: This paper attempts to present a comprehensive tutorial survey of the development of efficient modulation techniques for bandlimited channels, such as telephone channels. After a history of advances in commercial high-speed modems and a discussion of theoretical limits, it reviews efforts to optimize two-dimensional signal constellations and presents further elaborations of uncoded modulation. Its principal emphasis, however, is on coded modulation techniques, in which there is an explosion of current interest, both for research and for practical application. Both block-coded and trellis-coded modulation are covered, in a common framework. A few new techniques are presented.

TL;DR: The known types of coset codes, as well as a number of new classes that systematize and generalize known codes, are classified and compared in terms of these parameters.
Abstract: Practically all known good constructive coding techniques for bandlimited channels, including lattice codes and various trellis-coded modulation schemes, can be characterized as coset codes. A coset code is defined by a lattice partition Lambda / Lambda ' and by a binary encoder C that selects a sequence of cosets of the lattice Lambda '. The fundamental coding gain of a coset code, as well as other important parameters such as the error coefficient, the decoding complexity, and the constellation expansion factor, are purely geometric parameters determined by C Lambda / Lambda '. The known types of coset codes, as well as a number of new classes that systematize and generalize known codes, are classified and compared in terms of these parameters. >

TL;DR: The maximum bit rate of multitone QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation) over a general linear channel is found and it is shown that the optimum power division for multitone signals is similar to the water-pouring solution of information theory.
Abstract: The maximum bit rate of multitone QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation) over a general linear channel is found. First, the overall bit rate for an AWGN channel with a two-level transfer function is maximized, using a multitone QAM system. The power distribution between the tones and the number of bits/symbol per tone is optimized for a given symbol error rate. Extending these results to the general channel, it is shown that the optimum power division for multitone signals is similar to the water-pouring solution of information theory. Furthermore, multitone QAM performance is about 9 dB worse than the channel capacity, independent of the channel characteristics. The multitone results throughout are compared to those of an equivalent single-tone linearly equalized system. The comparison shows that the multitone system is useful for some channels, e.g. those with deep nulls in the transfer function. The maximum bit error rate over a twisted-pair channel which is performance dominated by near-end crosstalk (NEXT) is also found. >
