Abstract
Broadband wireless access systems deployed in residential and business environments are likely to face hostile radio propagation environments, with multipath delay spread extending over tens or hundreds of bit intervals. Orthogonal frequency-division multiplex (OFDM) is a recognized multicarrier solution to combat the effects of such multipath conditions. This article surveys frequency domain equalization (FDE) applied to single-carrier (SC) modulation solutions. SC radio modems with frequency domain equalization have similar performance, efficiency, and low signal processing complexity advantages as OFDM, and in addition are less sensitive than OFDM to RF impairments such as power amplifier nonlinearities. We discuss similarities and differences of SC and OFDM systems and coexistence possibilities, and present examples of SC-FDE performance capabilities.

A single-carrier modulation system based on the fractional fourier domain equalization in aeronautical channels

TL;DR: This paper proposes a signal carrier modulation systems with equalization based on the fractional Fourier transform (SC-FRFDE), in which the feed-back link is not necessary and the system can significantly improve the performance of SC-FDE system.

Space-Frequency Equalization in Broadband Single Carrier Systems

TL;DR: This research investigates and develops low-complexity frequency domain receiver architectures capable of suppressing both CCI and ISI and employing practical channel estimation, and develops an iterative QR-decomposition based parameter estimation algorithm which yields performance improvement over the non-iterative parameter estimation algorithms.

Parallel multistage decision feedback equalizer for single-carrier layered space-time systems in frequency-selective channels

TL;DR: Simulation results show that the PMDFE outperforms MIMO-OFDM and previously existing equalizers for single-carrier layered space-time systems.

Is the cyclic prefix necessary

TL;DR: It is shown that one can do away with the cyclic prefix (CP) for SC-FDE and OFDM at the cost of a moderate increase in complexity of a DFT-based receiver.

Which one is more sensitive to carrier frequency offsets - OFDMA or SC-FDMA?

TL;DR: It is shown that the performance of grouped allocation and interleaved allocation becomes similar in the presence of CFOs as opposed to the perfect synchronization scenario, and the performance degradation due to CFO is relatively small for SC-FDMA with zero forcing equalization.

Analysis and Simulation of a Digital Mobile Channel Using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing

TL;DR: The analysis and simulation of a technique for combating the effects of multipath propagation and cochannel interference on a narrow-band digital mobile channel using the discrete Fourier transform to orthogonally frequency multiplex many narrow subchannels, each signaling at a very low rate, into one high-rate channel is discussed.
