The Symbol rate is measured in baud (Bd) or symbols/second.
Each symbol can represent or convey one or several bits of data
A sending device places symbols on the channel at a fixed and known symbol rate, and the
receiving device has the job of detecting the sequence of symbols in order to reconstruct the
transmitted data. There may be a direct correspondence between a symbol and a small unit of data
(for example, each symbol may encode one or several binary digits or 'bits') or the data may be
represented by the transitions between symbols or even by a sequence of many symbols.
The symbol duration time Ts can be calculated as: Ts=1/fs, where fs is the symbol rate.
A simple example: A baud rate of 1 kBd = 1,000 Bd is synonymous to a symbol rate of 1,000
symbols per second. In case of a modem, this corresponds to 1,000 tones per second, and in case
of a line code, this corresponds to 1,000 pulses per second. The symbol duration time is 1/1,000
second = 1 millisecond.
Relationship to gross bitrate
The term baud rate has sometimes incorrectly been used to mean bit rate, since these rates are the
same in old modems as well as in the simplest digital communication links using only one bit per
symbol, such that binary "0" is represented by one symbol, and binary "1" by another symbol. In
more advanced modems and data transmission techniques, a symbol may have more than two
states, so it may represent more than one binary digit (a binary digit always represents exactly two
states). For this reason, the baud rate value will often be lower than the gross bit rate.
If N bits are conveyed per symbol, and the gross bit rate is R, inclusive of channel coding
overhead, the symbol rate can be calculated as:
fs=R/N
1 Digital television and OFDM example
Indigital televisiontransmission the symbol rate calculation is:
symbol rate in symbols per second = (Data rate in bits per second * 204) / (188 * bits
per symbol)
The 204 is the number of bytes in a packet including the 16 trailingReed-Solomonerror
checking and correctionbytes. The 188 is the number of data bytes (187 bytes) plus the
leading packetsync byte(0x47).

The bits per symbol is the (modulation's power of 2)*(Forward Error Correction). So for
example in 64-QAM modulation 64 = 26
so the bits per symbol is 6. The Forward Error
Correction (FEC) is usually expressed as a fraction, i.e., 1/2, 3/4, etc. In the case of 3/4
FEC, for every 3 bits of data, you are sending out 4 bits, one of which is for errorcorrection.
Example:
given bit rate = 18096263
Modulation type = 64-QAM
FEC = 3/4
then
In digital terrestrial digital television (DVB-T,DVB-Hand similar
techniques)OFDMmodulation is used, i.e. multi-carrier modulation. The above
symbol rate should then be divided by the number of OFDM sub-carriers in view to
achieve the OFDM symbol rate. See theOFDM system comparison tablefor further
numerical details.
2 [edit]Relationship to chip rate
3 Relationship to chip rate
Some communication links (such asGPStransmissions,CDMAcell phones, and
otherspread spectrumlinks) have a symbol rate much higher than the data rate (they
transmit many symbols calledchipsper data bit. Representing one bit by a chip sequence of
many symbols overcomesco-channel interferencefrom other transmitters sharing the same
frequency channel, includingradio jamming, and is common inmilitary radioandcell phones.
Despite the fact that using morebandwidthto carry the same bit rate gives lowchannel
spectral efficiencyin (bit/s)/Hz, it allows many simultaneous users, which results in
highsystem spectral efficiencyin (bit/s)/Hz per unit of area.
In these systems, the symbol rate of the physically transmitted high-frequency signal rate
is calledchip rate, which also is the pulse rate of the equivalentbase bandsignal.
However, in spread spectrum systems, the term symbol may also be used at a higher
layer and refer to one information bit, or a block of information bits that are modulated
using for example conventional QAM modulation, before the CDMA spreading code is
applied. Using the latter definition, the symbol rate is equal to or lower than the bit rate.

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) is a method of encoding digital data on
multiple carrier frequencies. OFDM has developed into a popular scheme forwidebanddigital
communication, whetherwirelessor overcopperwires, used in applications such as digital
television and audio broadcasting,DSLbroadband internet access, wireless networks,
and4Gmobile communications.
OFDM is essentially identical to coded OFDM (COFDM) and discrete multi-tone
modulation (DMT), and is afrequency-division multiplexing(FDM) scheme used as a digital multi-
carriermodulationmethod. The word "coded" comes from the use offorward error

correction(FEC).[1]
A large number of closely spacedorthogonalsub-carrier signalsare used to
carrydata[1]
on severalparalleldata streams or channels. Each sub-carrier is modulated with a
conventional modulation scheme (such asquadrature amplitude modulationorphase-shift keying)
at a lowsymbol rate, maintaining total data rates similar to conventional single-carriermodulation
schemes in the same bandwidth.
The primary advantage of OFDM over single-carrier schemes is its ability to cope with
severechannelconditions (for example,attenuationof high frequencies in a long copper wire,
narrowbandinterferenceand frequency-selectivefadingdue tomultipath) without complex
equalization filters. Channelequalizationis simplified because OFDM may be viewed as using
many slowly modulatednarrowbandsignals rather than one rapidly modulatedwidebandsignal.
The low symbol rate makes the use of aguard intervalbetween symbols affordable, making it
possible to eliminateintersymbol interference(ISI) and utilize echoes and time-spreading (that
shows up asghostingon analogue TV) to achieve adiversity gain, i.e. asignal-to-noise
ratioimprovement. This mechanism also facilitates the design ofsingle frequency
networks(SFNs), where several adjacent transmitters send the same signal simultaneously at the
same frequency, as the signals from multiple distant transmitters may be combined constructively,
rather than interfering as would typically occur in a traditional single-carrier system.

12 [edit]Characteristics and principles of operation
13 [edit]Orthogonality
Conceptually, OFDM is a specialized FDM, the additional constraint being: all the carrier signals
are orthogonal to each other.
In OFDM, the sub-carrier frequencies are chosen so that the sub-carriers are orthogonalto each
other, meaning thatcross-talkbetween the sub-channels is eliminated and inter-carrier guard
bands are not required. This greatly simplifies the design of both thetransmitterand thereceiver;
unlike conventionalFDM, a separate filter for each sub-channel is not required.
The orthogonality requires that the sub-carrier spacing is Hertz, where TUsecondsis
the useful symbol duration (the receiver side window size), and kis a positive integer, typically
equal to 1. Therefore, with Nsub-carriers, the total passband bandwidth will be BNf(Hz).
The orthogonality also allows highspectral efficiency, with a total symbol rate near theNyquist
ratefor the equivalent baseband signal (i.e. near half the Nyquist rate for the double-side band
physical passband signal). Almost the whole available frequency band can be utilized. OFDM
generally has a nearly 'white' spectrum, giving it benign electromagnetic interference properties
with respect to other co-channel users.
A simple example: A useful symbol duration TU = 1 ms would require a sub-carrier
spacing of (or an integer multiple of that) for orthogonality. N= 1,000
sub-carriers would result in a total passband bandwidth ofNf = 1 MHz. For this symbol
time, the required bandwidth in theory according to Nyquist is N/2TU = 0.5 MHz (i.e., half
of the achieved bandwidth required by our scheme). If a guard interval is applied (see
below), Nyquist bandwidth requirement would be even lower. The FFT would result in N=
1,000 samples per symbol. If no guard interval was applied, this would result in a base
band complex valued signal with a sample rate of 1 MHz, which would require a baseband
bandwidth of 0.5 MHz according to Nyquist. However, the passband RF signal is
produced by multiplying the baseband signal with a carrier waveform (i.e., double-
sideband quadrature amplitude-modulation) resulting in a passband bandwidth of 1 MHz.
A single-side band (SSB) or vestigial sideband (VSB) modulation scheme would achieve

almost half that bandwidth for the same symbol rate (i.e., twice as high spectral efficiency
for the same symbol alphabet length). It is however more sensitive to multipath
interference.
OFDM requires very accurate frequency synchronization between the receiver and the
transmitter; with frequency deviation the sub-carriers will no longer be orthogonal,
causinginter-carrier interference (ICI) (i.e., cross-talk between the sub-carriers). Frequency
offsets are typically caused by mismatched transmitter and receiver oscillators, or byDoppler
shiftdue to movement. While Doppler shift alone may be compensated for by the receiver, the
situation is worsened when combined withmultipath, as reflections will appear at various
frequency offsets, which is much harder to correct. This effect typically worsens as speed
increases,[2]
and is an important factor limiting the use of OFDM in high-speed vehicles.
Several techniques for ICI suppression are suggested, but they may increase the receiver
complexity.
14 [edit]Implementation using the FFT algorithm
The orthogonality allows for efficient modulator and demodulator implementation using
theFFTalgorithm on the receiver side, and inverse FFT on the sender side. Although the
principles and some of the benefits have been known since the 1960s, OFDM is popular for
wideband communications today by way of low-costdigital signal processingcomponents that
can efficiently calculate the FFT.
The time to compute the inverse-FFT or FFT transform has to take less than the time for each
symbol.[3]
Which for example forDVB-T(FFT 8k) means the computation has to be done
in 896 s or less.
For an 8 192 pointFFTthis may be approximated to:[3][clarification needed]
[3]
MIPS =Million instructions per second
The computational demand approximately scales linear with FFT size so a double size
FFT needs the double amount of time and vice versa.[3]
As a comparison aIntel Pentium
IIICPU at 1.266 GHz is able to calculate a 8 192 point FFT in 576 s usingFFTW.[4]
Intel
Pentium Mat 1.6 GHz does it in 387 s.[5]
Intel Core Duoat 3.0 GHz does it in 96.8 s.[6]

15 [edit]Guard interval for elimination of intersymbol
interference
One key principle of OFDM is that since low symbol rate modulation schemes (i.e., where
the symbols are relatively long compared to thechanneltime characteristics) suffer less
fromintersymbol interferencecaused bymultipath propagation, it is advantageous to
transmit a number of low-rate streams in parallel instead of a single high-rate stream.
Since the duration of each symbol is long, it is feasible to insert aguard intervalbetween
the OFDM symbols, thus eliminating the intersymbol interference.
The guard interval also eliminates the need for apulse-shaping filter, and it reduces the
sensitivity to time synchronization problems.
A simple example: If one sends a million symbols per second using conventional single-
carrier modulation over a wireless channel, then the duration of each symbol would be
one microsecond or less. This imposes severe constraints on synchronization and
necessitates the removal of multipath interference. If the same million symbols per second
are spread among one thousand sub-channels, the duration of each symbol can be longer
by a factor of a thousand (i.e., one millisecond) for orthogonality with approximately the
same bandwidth. Assume that a guard interval of 1/8 of the symbol length is inserted
between each symbol. Intersymbol interference can be avoided if the multipath time-
spreading (the time between the reception of the first and the last echo) is shorter than the
guard interval (i.e., 125 microseconds). This corresponds to a maximum difference of 37.5
kilometers between the lengths of the paths.
Thecyclic prefix, which is transmitted during the guard interval, consists of the end of
the OFDM symbol copied into the guard interval, and the guard interval is transmitted
followed by the OFDM symbol. The reason that the guard interval consists of a copy
of the end of the OFDM symbol is so that the receiver will integrate over an integer
number of sinusoid cycles for each of the multipaths when it performs OFDM
demodulation with the FFT.
16 [edit]Simplified equalization
The effects of frequency-selective channel conditions, for example fading caused by
multipath propagation, can be considered as constant (flat) over an OFDM sub-
channel if the sub-channel is sufficiently narrow-banded (i.e., if the number of sub-

each detected sub-carrier (each Fourier coefficient) in each OFDM symbol by a
constant complex number, or a rarely changed value.
Our example: The OFDM equalization in the above numerical example would require one
complex valued multiplication per subcarrier and symbol (i.e., complex
multiplications per OFDM symbol; i.e., one million multiplications per second, at the
receiver). The FFT algorithm requires [this is imprecise: over half of
these complex multiplications are trivial, i.e. = to 1 and are not implemented in software or
HW]. complex-valued multiplications per OFDM symbol (i.e., 10 million multiplications per
second), at both the receiver and transmitter side. This should be compared with the
corresponding one million symbols/second single-carrier modulation case mentioned in
the example, where the equalization of 125 microseconds time-spreading using aFIR
filterwould require, in a naive implementation, 125 multiplications per symbol (i.e., 125
million multiplications per second). FFT techniques can be used to reduce the number of
multiplications for anFIR filterbased time-domain equalizer to a number comparable with
OFDM, at the cost of delay between reception and decoding which also becomes
comparable with OFDM.
If differential modulation such asDPSKorDQPSKis applied to each sub-
carrier, equalization can be completely omitted, since these non-coherent
schemes are insensitive to slowly changing amplitude andphase distortion.
In a sense, improvements in FIR equalization using FFTs or partial FFTs leads
mathematically closer to OFDM,[citation needed]
but the OFDM technique is easier to
understand and implement, and the sub-channels can be independently
adapted in other ways than varying equalization coefficients, such as switching
between differentQAMconstellation patterns and error-correction schemes to
match individual sub-channel noise and interference characteristics.[clarification
needed]
Some of the sub-carriers in some of the OFDM symbols may carrypilot
signalsfor measurement of the channel conditions[7][8]
(i.e., the equalizer gain
and phase shift for each sub-carrier). Pilot signals and training symbols
(preambles) may also be used for time synchronization (to avoid intersymbol
interference, ISI) and frequency synchronization (to avoid inter-carrier
interference, ICI, caused by Doppler shift).
OFDM was initially used for wired and stationary wireless communications.
However, with an increasing number of applications operating in highly mobile
environments, the effect of dispersive fading caused by a combination of multi-
path propagation anddoppler shiftis more significant. Over the last decade,

research has been done on how to equalize OFDM transmission over doubly
selective channels.[9][10][11]
17 [edit]Channel coding and interleavingOFDM is invariably used in conjunction withchannel coding(forward error
correction), and almost always uses frequency and/or timeinterleaving.
Frequency (subcarrier)interleavingincreases resistance to frequency-selective
channel conditions such asfading. For example, when a part of the channel
bandwidth fades, frequency interleaving ensures that the bit errors that would
result from those subcarriers in the faded part of the bandwidth are spread out in
the bit-stream rather than being concentrated. Similarly, time interleaving
ensures that bits that are originally close together in the bit-stream are
transmitted far apart in time, thus mitigating against severe fading as would
happen when travelling at high speed.
However, time interleaving is of little benefit in slowly fading channels, such as
for stationary reception, and frequency interleaving offers little to no benefit for
narrowband channels that suffer from flat-fading (where the whole channel
bandwidth fades at the same time).
The reason why interleaving is used on OFDM is to attempt to spread the errors
out in the bit-stream that is presented to the error correction decoder, because
when such decoders are presented with a high concentration of errors the
decoder is unable to correct all the bit errors, and a burst of uncorrected errors
occurs. A similar design of audio data encoding makes compact disc (CD)
playback robust.
A classical type of error correction coding used with OFDM-based systems
isconvolutional coding, oftenconcatenatedwithReed-Solomoncoding. Usually,
additional interleaving (on top of the time and frequency interleaving mentionedabove) in between the two layers of coding is implemented. The choice for
Reed-Solomon coding as the outer error correction code is based on the
observation that the Viterbi decoder used for inner convolutional decoding
produces short errors bursts when there is a high concentration of errors, and
Reed-Solomon codes are inherently well-suited to correcting bursts of errors.
Newer systems, however, usually now adopt near-optimal types of error
correction codes that use the turbo decoding principle, where the decoder
iterates towards the desired solution. Examples of such error correction coding
types includeturbo codesandLDPCcodes, which perform close to

theShannon limitfor the Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel.
Some systems that have implemented these codes have concatenated them
with either Reed-Solomon (for example on theMediaFLOsystem) orBCH
codes(on theDVB-S2system) to improve upon anerror floorinherent to these
codes at highsignal-to-noise ratios.
18 [edit]Adaptive transmission
The resilience to severe channel conditions can be further enhanced if
information about the channel is sent over a return-channel. Based on this
feedback information, adaptivemodulation, channel coding and power allocation
may be applied across all sub-carriers, or individually to each sub-carrier. In the
latter case, if a particular range of frequencies suffers from interference or
attenuation, the carriers within that range can be disabled or made to run slower
by applying more robust modulation orerror codingto those sub-carriers.
The term discrete multitone modulation (DMT) denotes OFDM based
communication systems that adapt the transmission to the channel conditions
individually for each sub-carrier, by means of so called bit-loading. Examples
areADSLandVDSL.
The upstream and downstream speeds can be varied by allocating either more
or fewer carriers for each purpose. Some forms ofrate-adaptive DSLuse this
feature in real time, so that the bitrate is adapted to the co-channel interference
and bandwidth is allocated to whichever subscriber needs it most.
19 [edit]OFDM extended with multiple access
OFDM in its primary form is considered as a digital modulation technique, and
not a multi-userchannel access method, since it is utilized for transferring one
bit stream over one communicationchannelusing one sequence of OFDM
symbols. However, OFDM can be combined withmultiple accessusing time,
frequency or coding separation of the users.
InOrthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access(OFDMA),frequency-division
multiple accessis achieved by assigning different OFDM sub-channels to
different users. OFDMA supports differentiatedquality of serviceby assigning
different number of sub-carriers to different users in a similar fashion as
inCDMA, and thus complex packet scheduling orMedia Access
Controlschemes can be avoided. OFDMA is used in:
