Abstract
The paper investigates a system proposal for transmitting digital high-definition television (HDTV) signals over terrestrial UHF channels The authors compare uncoded 16-QAM and trellis-coded 32-CROSS modulation in conjunction with an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) procedure The simulations show the influence of the nonlinear distortions introduced by the high-power amplifier (HPA) of the transmitter As HPA the authors consider a travelling wave tube amplifier (TWTA) and a solid state power amplifier (SSPA) The characteristics of the channel for HDTV in a single frequency network (SFN) is simulated using a time-invariant multipath model >

A hybrid analytical-simulation procedure for performance evaluation in M-QAM-OFDM schemes in presence of nonlinear distortions

An application of MMSE predistortion to OFDM systems

TL;DR: Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) particularly suffers from the presence of nonlinearities since the signal amplitude is Rayleigh distributed, so the degradation introduced by the nonlinear amplifier in the transmitter can be significantly reduced by using an analog cubic minimum mean square error predistorter.

Hardware nonlinearities in digital TV broadcasting using OFDM modulation

TL;DR: The paper investigates the in-band and out-of-band behaviour of a 64QAM-OFDM system under various nonlinear devices and shows that the inherent signal clipping in the IFFT processors with a limited word length reduces the required RF amplifier output backoff (OBO) where adjacent channel interference is the limiting factor.

Effects of HPA-Nonlinearity on a 4-DPSK/OFDM-Signal for a Digital Sound Broadcasting System.

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the nonlinear distortions introduced by the high power amplifier (HPA) of the transmitter is examined, and the degradation in power efficiency due to intermodulation effects and backoff operating, as well as spectral degradations are investigated.
