Evaluation of OFDM system in terms of PAPR and BER using PAPR Reduction Techniques : Windowing and Clipping

2024-01-14T08:01:33+00:00

The issue of transferring signals in a non-intrusive and efficient manner is highly intriguing. Consequently, the utilisation of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) transmission technology is employed due to its enhanced resilience against multipath fading and its ability to achieve better efficiency compared to alternative wireless communication methods. Although the PAPR issue offers certain benefits, it poses undesirable consequences for OFDM, leading to a significant decrease in data transmission rate. Consequently, the mitigation of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) issues leads to an improvement in the quality of service. The reduction of PAPR can be achieved by the implementation of clipping and windowing techniques. These approaches arrange the signal into discrete levels of similar magnitude and apply clipping to minimise the bit error rate (BER), resulting in a drop in PAPR. The proposed approach is implemented using the MATLAB software.

2024-06-02T11:38:12+00:00

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is an extremely important technique for transmitting data in both optical wireless and optical fiber communication. Optical wireless systems are limited to transmitting real and positive values to the optical transmitter, since they rely only on the intensity of a signal to convey information. Consequently, traditional OFDM is not suitable for direct implementation in optical systems. Various altered OFDM schemes have been examined to counteract multipath distortion, such as DC-biased optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM), asymmetrically clipped optical OFDM (ACO-OFDM), asymmetrically clipped DC biased optical OFDM (ADO-OFDM) and layered asymmetrically-clipped optical OFDM (LACO-OFDM) technique to improve the bit error rate (BER) performance and spectral efficiency of optical system. This article explores ways for reducing Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR). A mathematical model is formulated to account for clipping and Selective Mapping (SLM), as well as channel noise, in all of these approaches for received signal. LACO-OFDM has been determined to be a superior option when compared to other techniques. LACO-OFDM, a recently developed technique, demonstrates excellent performance in terms of PAPR, BER, and spectral efficiency. The simulation results demonstrate that the LACO-OFDM approach has greatly enhanced the spectral efficiency in comparison to previous approaches.

Using a Fuzzy Approach as an Assessment Method to Extend the Lifespan of Wireless Sensor Networks using the LEACH Protocol

2024-03-12T09:05:53+00:00

Wireless sensor network is the term used to describe a network where network nodes are wirelessly configured to collect data from the real world. Node sensors depend on finite energy sources, such as batteries, because of the wireless configuration they have. If the battery-operated sensor of the node is not charged, it will be unable to carry out its intended function. If a specific amount of nodes fail, the network will cease to function. Several energy-efficient protocols were developed for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), including the LEACH Protocol. The LEACH protocol demonstrates a single cluster-based protocol by dividing available sensor nodes into sets and interacting with each set individually. The shape of an energy can be altered by compressing or expanding it, based on the cluster's configuration. We are comparing the network lifespans of three distinct versions of the LEACH protocol that utilize fuzzy techniques for cluster selection with the lifespan of WSNs generated by a previous version of the protocol.

Representation using Kendall's notation: The Web service characteristics are represented using Kendall's notation, resulting in the M/M/1/∞/FCFS model, where M denotes exponential distributions for arrival and service patterns, 1 represents a single server, ∞ represents infinite system capacity, and FCFS represents the first-come, first-served queue discipline. 3. Derivation of response time formulae: The article provides a detailed derivation of the response time formulae for the M/M/1 model using stochastic processes, Markov chains, and the birth-death process. The derivation incorporates steady-state conditions and results in a formula that calculates the probability of completing a request within a user-specified response time. 4. Practical applications: The derived response time formula can be used by service providers to determine the probability of completing user requests within specified Service Level Agreements (SLAs). By setting a threshold value (filter value), the service provider can select requests with a higher probability of completion for further processing. Overall, the article contributes to the understanding of Web service performance modeling by establishing a theoretical foundation based on queueing theory.
