In this letter, a concise formula for the SNR degradation of OFDM caused by carrier frequency offset is derived by approximations over a shadowed two-path channel, which explicitly shows the sensitivity of SNR degradation to various parameters including the frequency offset. It is shown that, for small frequency offset, the SNR degradation is proportional to the square of the frequency offset and the square of the number of subcarriers. It is also shown that, if Es/N0 is reasonably large, the SNR degradation becomes insensitive to Es/N0, which is contrary to the case of the AWGN channel.

We present a case of design and implementation of a high-speed burst QPSK (Quaternary Phase Shift Keying) receiver. Since the PSK modulation carries its information through the phase, the baseband digital receiver can recover transmitted symbol from the received phase. The implemented receiver estimates symbol time and frequency offset using sampled data over 32 symbols without transmitted symbol information, and embedded RAM is used for received phase delay over estimation time. The receiver is implemented using about 92,000 gates of Samsung KG75 SOG library which uses 0.65 µm CMOS technology. The fabricated chip test result shows that the receiver operates at 40 MHz clock rate on 5.6 V, which is equivalent to the 40 Mbps data rate.

We evaluate the BER performance of the OFDM system with the one-tap equalizer bank under the two-ray multipath channel with the frequency offset by the simple Gaussian analysis method and by a proposed modified Gaussian analysis method. The proposed analysis method considers two adjacent inter-channel interferences, separately, and models the other inter-channel interferences as a Gaussian noise. It is shown that the proposed analysis method affords much closer results to the simulations than those by the simple Gaussian analysis method, when the frequency offset exists.

We propose a subchannel power control scheme in the OFDM system, which transmits data with a variable power level for each subchannel based on the received SNR. The OFDM system, employing the D-QPSK modulation and the proposed subchannel power control with a grouping coefficient equal to 3, gives about 2.3 dB gain in Eb/N0 comparing with the conventional OFDM system, under the two-ray multipath channel with the mean value of the second-ray's attenuation coefficient equal to 0.25, for the required BER equal to 10-5.
