Content Summary | Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a modulation technique
which is now used in most wired and wireless communication systems, because it is
an effective solution to cope with intersymbol interference caused by the channel.
In wireless communication, the concept of parallel transmission of symbols is used
to achieve high throughput and better transmission quality. OFDM is one of the
techniques for parallel transmission. OFDM splits the total transmission band-
width into a number of orthogonal subcarriers in order to transmit the symbols
using these subcarriers in parallel. It is a widely used modulation and multiplexing
technology, which has become the basis of many telecommunications standards in-
cluding 4G, wireless local area networks (LANs), digital terrestrial television (DTT)
and digital radio broadcasting in much of the world.
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology significantly enhances sys-
tem performance. The extra degrees of freedom afforded by the multiple antennas
can be used for increasing bit rates through spatial multiplexing or for improved
diversity order through space-time coding techniques.
In this thesis, we combine OFDM and MIMO systems. Specifically, we design
and implement an OFDM system with two transmitters and one receiver with
Alamouti space time code (STC) using USRP. At the beginning, we create an
OFDM transmitter and receiver with N subcarriers in Matlab and GNU radio and
then we build it using C++ for real time processing. The two transmitters modify
the data, as described, by Alamouti STC and they send them simultaneously. The
receiver has to receive and process the data in order to detect the transmitted
symbols. Time synchronization, CFO cancellation and channel estimation are such
processes. The transmitters are two USRPs N200, which were synchronized to send
the Alamouti symbols at the same time. Also, the receiver is a USRP N200. Before
the Alamouti scheme, we implemented an OFDM system with one transmitter and
one receiver. Finally, we measure some performance metrics, like SNR and BER.
