Moving wireless local area networks (WLANs) to the 5-GHz band is very appealing because of the leap in data rates from 11 or 22 Mb/s to 54 Mb/s. But, making the leap to 5-GHz also means the use of ...

Have you ever heard terms like modulation scheme, orthoganal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), or symbol rate and scratched your head? As new wireless standards emerge, we get excited about the ...

Index modulation (IM) in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems represents a transformative approach in modern communications. This technique utilises the indices of active ...

Over the past year I’ve been writing about potential transmission standards for a nextgeneration broadcast platform (NGBP). The most promising standards are all based on orthogonal frequency division ...

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has become attractive for many current and emerging commercial applications because it provides a combination of data throughput, scalability, and ...
