`Abstract
`An OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing)
`transmission system is simulated with time-variant transfer
`functions measured with a wideband channel sounder. The
`individual subcarriers are modulated with fixed and adaptive
`signal alphabets. Furthermore, a frequency-independent as
`well as the optimum power distribution are used.
`The simulations show that with adaptive OFDM, the required
`can be reduced
`signal power for an error probability of
`by 5 ... 15 dB compared with fixed OFDM. The fraction of
`channel capacity which can be achieved with adaptive OFDM
`depends on the average signal-to-noise ratio and the propa-
`gation scenario.
`1 Introduction
`Shannon has shown that, theoretically, it is possible to trans-
`mit information over a given channel with an arbitrary small
`error probability if the data rate is not greater than the chan-
`nel capacity (information rate). Therefore, the channel ca-
`pacity is the ultimate limit of the data rate for reliable com-
`munication. In the present contribution the channel capacity
`of a wideband radio channel with fixed antennas and with
`frequency-selective fading is compared with the achieveable
`data rate using adaptive ortthogonal frequency division multi-
`plexing (OFDM) transmission schemes. Radio channels with
`frequency-selective fading originate from multipath propaga-
`tion and can be found in broadband wireless local area net-
`works (LANs) or broadband wireless access networks.
`In an OFDM transmission system which uses the same fixed
`modulation scheme for all OFDM subcarriers, the error prob-
`ability is dominated by the OFDM subcarriers with highest
`attenuation. Therefore, in case of frequency-selective fad-
`ing the error probability decreases very slowly with increas-
`ing average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). This problem can be
`mitigated if different modulation schemes are employed for
`the individual OFDM subcarriers. The modulation schemes
`have to be adapted to the SNRs of the individual subcarriers.
`Furthermore, the power distribution for the individual sub-
`carriers can be optimized. In the present contribution only
`uncoded modulation schemes are considered.
`In order to combat the temporal fluctuations of a radio chan-
`nel, adaptive single carrier imodulation schemes are proposed
`in literature [l, 21. Also in the field of OFDM, adaptive chan-
`nel usage is recommended [:3]. Adaptive OFDM based on the
`optimum water-pouring method is well-known in the field of
`transmission over twisted-pair lines [4, 5, 61. But in the field
`of multipath radio channels, the water-pouring method with
`variable modulation schemes is considered only sparcely [7].
`Therefore, in the present paper the performance of adaptive
`OFDM in a radio system is investigated in detail.
`The paper is organized as follows: In section 2 the channel

`
`capacity of a measured broadband radio channel is calculated
`and in section 3 transmission systems with adaptive OFDM
`are presented. Finally, section 4 contains simulation results.
`2 Channel capacity
`The channel capacity of an ideal transmission channel with
`additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) can be calculated us-
`ing Shannons formula [8]:
`
`where B denotes the (single-sided) channel bandwidth, P, the
`average signal power and P, the average noise power in the
`bandwidth B . Equation (1) shows that the channel capacity
`only depends on the bandwidth B and on the signal-to-noise
`ratio (SNR = Px/Pn). In case of a frequency-selective channel
`the capacity is determined by the ratio of the signal’s power
`spectral density (PSD) Sx(w) to the noise PSD Sn(w). The
`transmission channel has to be divided into a large number
`of narrowband subchannels where the transfer function can
`be considered as constant. The channel capacity results from
`integration over all subchannels [9, 101:
`
`The integrand in Eq. (2)
`
`C’ = l d ( l + #)
`
`(3)
`
`will be called the density of the channel capacity. C’ deter-
`mines the maximum data rate per bandwidth. Therefore, it
`is the ultimate limitation of bandwidth efficiency. Its unit is
`
`It is assumed that the transmitted signal is limited by its
`mean power P,.
`In this case the maximum of channel ca-
`pacity is obtained if the PSD of the transmitted signal S, (w)
`is adapted to the transfer function of the channel. The op-
`timum method for distribution of power is the well-known
`“water-pouring” method [lo]:

`The parameter Sm, has to be chosen such that the boundary
`condition

`P, = 7T
`
`is fulfilled.

`
`A radio channel is described by a time-variant transfer
`function H ( t , w ) [ll] and an additive white Gaussian noise
`(AWGN) source (thermal noise nth(t)). The corresponding
`block diagram is shown in Fig. 1. Because of the time-
`variant behaviour, the channel capacity changes with time,
`too. Propagation measurements of radio channels with fixed
`antennas show that the transfer function varies very slowly
`with time. Because of this reason it is assumed that the
`instantaneous transfer function of the radio channel can be
`estimated at the receiver and can be communicated back to
`the transmitter via signalling channels with noticable delay.
`Therefore, only in a bidirectional transmission system, the
`transmitted power spectrum can be optimized.
`
`Figure 1: Block diagram of a time-variant radio channel.
`
`The power spectral density of the equivalent input noise of a
`time-variant radio channel is given by:
`
`where F denotes the noise figure, IC Boltzmann’s constant,
`and To the reference temperature. Since the equivalent input
`noise is time-variant, also the optimum PSD SsoPt(w) and the
`channel capacity become time-variant.
`From a qualitative point of view, with the water-pouring
`method, most of the power is concentrated in frequency
`ranges where the channel attenuation is small. Numerical
`evaluations of channel capacity have shown that there is only
`a very small loss of channel capacity if a white power spec-
`trum is used instead of the optimum power spectrum [12].
`This result holds for the case that the average SNR is high.
`Only in case of a low average SNR, the channel capacity can
`be increased significantly with an optimized power spectrum.
`Therefore, only the case of a frequency-independent signal
`power spectrum is considered for the calculation of channel
`capacity.
`For the numerical evaluation, data from wideband outdoor
`propagation measurements in an industrial area in Darm-
`stadt, Germany, were used. The measurements were car-
`ried out with fixed antennas. The transfer function of a first
`propagation measurement with two omni-directional anten-
`nas and under line-of-sight (LOS) conditions is displayed in
`Fig. 2a. In a second measurement an omni-directional and a
`sectional antenna (angle of aperture: 110’) were used. The
`omni-directional antenna was located inside a building so that
`there were non-line-of-sight (NLOS) conditions. The most im-
`portant parameters of both measurement scenarios are sum-
`marized in Table 1.
`The channel capacity was evaluated within a bandwidth of
`B = 5 MHz. The resulting temporal fluctuations of chan-
`nel capacity are shown in Fig. 3 (The channel capacity is
`normalized with the bandwidth B: fl = C/B). The level
`of transmitted power was adjusted so that for both measure-
`ments a similar average SNR results. The curves show that
`the fluctuations in the LOS case are much stronger than in

`individual subcarriers is adapted to the shape of the trans-
`fer function of the radio channel. Modulator B optimizes
`simultaneously the distribution of bits and the distribution
`of signal power with respect to frequency. The algorithms for
`the distribution of bits and power are described later in this
`section.
`Different QAM modulation formats can be selected: no
`modulation, 2-PSK, 4-PSK, 8-QAM, 16-QAM1 32-QAM, 64-
`QAM, 128-QAM1 and 256-QAM (see Fig. 5). This means
`that 0, 1, 2, 3, ... 8 bit per subcarrier and FFT block can be
`transmitted. In order to get a minimum overall error prob-
`ability, the error probabilities for all used carriers should be
`approximately equal.

`
`The temporal variation of the transfer function of a radio
`channel makes it necessary to adapt the modulation schemes
`of the transmitted subcarriers continuous1.y. The adaptive
`modulator and demodulator have to be synchronized via a
`signalling channel which is disregarded in the present con-
`tribution. Furthermore, ideal carrier and clock recovery are
`assumed.
`The input signal of the adaptive modulator is processed block-
`wise due to the blockwise signal processing of the FFT blocks.
`For most applications of broadband radio systems a constant
`data rate is required. Therefore, also the adaptive modula-
`tor has to transmit with a constant data rate. This means
`that with each FFT block the same number of bits M is
`transmitted. Two different ~modulator/demodulator pairs are
`considered. In modulator AI the distribution of bits to the

`
`The required SNR for the above mentioned modulation
`schemes is displayed in Fig. 6 for given symbol error prob-
`abilities. Using Gray coding, the bit error probability is ap-
`proximately equal to the symbol error probability. The fig-
`ure shows the bandwidth efficiency of different modulation
`schemes as a function of SNR. It is obvious that the band-
`width efficiency follows approximately a straight line as a
`function of SNR (measured in dB). In the following, this linear
`approximation (for a symbol error probability Per, =
`is used to distribute bits to individual subcarriers:

`Especially for low SNRs (2-PSK) Eq. (7) is a significantly
`better approximation than the “gap approximation” [13, 61:

`ity and the bandwidth efficiency of real modulation schemes

`In the following, the principle of the bit distribution algo-
`rithm for modulator A is described: In a first step, from the
`given SNRs of the individual subcarriers and the required
`the capacities CbAM, are cal-
`error probability Per, =
`culated with Eq. (7). These values are rounded to the max-
`imum integers m; which are smaller than CLAM,. If in all
`subchannels i a number of m; bits are mapped to complex
`symbols of corresponding QAM schemes, the error probabil-
`
`ity is smaller than required. A sum of mc = xi mi bits can
`
`be transmitted per OFDM symbol with less than the required
`error probability.

`
`In the following, the power and bit distribution algorithm
`of modulator B is described: In a first step, an initial bit
`distribution is calculated. A possible initial bit distribution
`is e.g. the result of modulator A for a frequency-independent
`Pi for
`power distribution. Next, the total required power
`the desired error probability is calculated from Eq. (7):
`
`(9)
`
`Successively, at each of the subcarriers the number of bits
`is reduced by one bit (if possible). The reduction of the total
`required power is calculated for each subcarrier. At the sub-
`carrier with the highest power reduction, the number of bits
`is reduced by a single bit. Next, successively at each of the
`subcarriers the number of bits is increased by one bit. The
`increase of the total required power is calculated for each sub-
`carrier. At the subcarrier with the smallest power increase,
`the number of bits is increased by a single bit. This procedure
`of decreasing and increasing the number of bits per subcar-
`rier is repeated until the bit distribution does not change any
`more. At this point, the optimum bit distribution is found.
`Simultaneously, the total required power for the desired error
`probability is minimized.
`Finally the (average) power of all subcarriers is adjusted by
`the same factor Px/ P, so that the total power equals the
`available power P,. The result of this procedure is that the
`same SNR margin for all subcarriers is achieved. The ob-
`tained SNR margin is the maximum possible so that the er-
`ror probability becomes minimum. Therefore, modulator B
`calculates the optimum distribution of power and bits.
`The results of the optimization processes of both, modulator
`A and modulator B, are shown in Fig. 7. For comparison,
`the upper diagram shows the absolute value of the transfer
`function in dB. The lower diagram shows that for this specific
`example, both modulators yield the same distribution of bits.
`Furthermore, the power distribution and SNR is shown for
`both modulators. The transmit power for modulator B varies
`within a range of approx. -1.5 dB to 1.5 dB corresponding
`to the difference of approx. 3 dB between SNRs of adjacent
`QAM schemes.

`
`The required number of bits M per OFDM symbol is deter-
`mined by the requested service and usually does not depend
`on time (constant bit rate transmission is assumed). The
`number of bits mx that can actually be transmitted with
`the given quality will usually not coincide with the requested
`number M .
`In case the total number of bits m x is smaller than M ,
`the numbers of bits in individual subchannels have to be in-
`creased. Of course, with this measure the error probability
`will increase above the desired one. The additional bits have
`to be distributed on the subchannels such that the error prob-
`ability is increased as small as possible. The corresponding
`algorithm is described in the following: The additional bits
`are distributed with the target to minimize the maximum
`difference mi - CbAM,. One (computationally not efficient)
`method is to add successively bits to subchannels where the
`difference m, - CbAM, is minimal.
`In case the total number of bits m x is greater than M , the
`numbers of bits in individual subchannels have to be reduced.
`With this measure the error probability will decrease below
`the desired one. The reduction of bits in the subchannels is
`carried out such that the error probability is decreased as far
`as possible. This is done by reducing bits with the target to
`maximize the minimum difference CkAM - W . One (compu-
`tationally not efficient) method is to reduce successively bits
`at subchannels where the difference C&M, - is minimal.
`For a small SNR the values CbAM, can also become negative.
`This only means that the error probability is usually higher
`than desired. But nevertheless with the above described al-
`gorithm, the distribution of bits is carried out in an optimum
`way so that the overall error probability becomes minimum.
`The above described algorithm for modulator A maximizes
`the minimum (with respect to all subcarriers) SNR margin
`(difference between actual and desired SNR for a given error
`probability).
`The modulator B optimizes the power spectrum (PSD) and
`distribution of bits simultaneously. The optimum Hughes-
`Hartog algorithm [5] which was designed for the twisted-pair
`channel, cannot be applied since it maximizes the data rate.
`Because of the temporal fluctuations of the radio channel, the
`data rate varies with time. Therefore, the Hughes-Hartog al-
`gorithm cannot be used for constant bit rate communications.

`surement l and 2, respectively.
`In particular, for modulation schemes with high bandwidth
`efficiency an error floor can be noticed in case of insufficient
`length of the guard interval due to interbllock interference.
`The error floor is reduced or vanishes if the guard interval is
`extended. Due to the larger delay spread in measurement 2,
`a higher error floor can be observed. The figures show that
`fixed OFDM is more sensitive against interblock interference
`than adaptive OFDM. This can be explained by the fact that
`in the adaptive system, bad channels are not used or only
`used with small signal alphabets where a small amount of
`interblock interference is not so critical.
`In the following, the power required for a bit error ratio of
`is compared for fixed and adaptive modulation. For a
`sufficient length of the guard interval a gain due to adaptive
`modulation of 5 ... 15 dB ca:n be observed for the investigated
`channels. If a lower bit error ratio is considered, the gain is
`even higher. Especially for the NLOS channel, the bit error
`ratio can be reduced dramatically with adaptive OFDM. The
`loss for using modulator A .with frequency-independent PSD
`instead of modulator B with optimum PSI1 is less than 1.1
`dB. Because of this small loss, it is recommended to use a
`constant power spectrum in order to save computational or
`signalling effort.
`Finally, the channel capacity is compared with the data rates
`achievable with optimum adaptive OFDM (modulator B). It

`By using adaptive modulation schemes for the individual sub-
