摘要
It is well known that the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing （ OFDM ） system has a high ability to overcome the effect of multipath and can obtain high spectral efficiency in the wireless communication channel. However, avoid Interchannel Interference （ICI） and Intersymbol Interference （ISI） in wireless channel, a guard interval longer than channel delay is used in conventional OFDM system, which cause the efficiency of bandwidth usage reduced. Due to the superior spectral containment of wavelets, this paper proposed a new OFDM system based on Lifting Wavelet Transform （LWT-OFDM）, which adopts lifting wavelet transform to replace the conventional Fourier transform. This new OFDM system doesn＇t need the Cyclic Prefix （CP） so its structure is more simply than FFT-OFDM and its algorithm is as simply as FFT-OFDM. The new LWT-OFDM system can mitigates some disadvantages of FFT-OFDM system, such as a relatively large peak-to-average power ratio, more sensitive to carrier frequency offset and phase noise. Simulations show that the LWT-OFDM system is more effective and attractive than conversional FFT-OFDM in wireless channel.
