Pesquisa do Estado da Bahia - FAPEB / By using the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), it is possible to transmit by a channel a more robust signal and less susceptible to interferences. When such technique, based on orthogonal subcarriers, is combined with the use of propagation models, which are relevant tools for simulating the signal behavior in respect to environmental parameters and antenna configurations, it is feasible to have an evaluation about the performance of these systems, improving their project phase. Therefore, this work presents the use of OFDM technique applied to two propagation models: a two-ray geometric model and a microcellular model adapted to the Paulista Avenue, S?o Paulo, SP, having as objective the analysis of a mobile communication system through Bit Error Rate (BER). In the developed application using the MAtrix LABoratory (MATLAB) software, the mobile communication system based on OFDM admits several scenarios during the simulation, so that scenarios are related to positioning of the antennas, heights, type of modulation, size of the bit sequence to be sent, and others. The adopted OFDM architecture has been the IFFT/FFT and based on it, the system performs the transmission and reception of a bit set through a channel with interference by using different digital modulations, making appropriate comparisons. / Atrav?s da utiliza??o da t?cnica de Multiplexa??o por Divis?o de Frequ?ncias Ortogonais (OFDM, do ingl?s, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), ? poss?vel transmitir por um canal um sinal mais robusto e menos propenso a interfer?ncias. Quando tal t?cnica, baseada na utiliza??o de subportadoras ortogonais, ? aliada ao uso de modelos de propaga??o, que s?o ferramentas relevantes para a simula??o do comportamento do sinal em rela??o aos par?metros do ambiente e as configura??es das antenas, ? poss?vel ter uma avalia??o a respeito do desempenho desses sistemas, melhorando a fase de projeto dos mesmos. Sendo assim, este trabalho apresenta o uso da t?cnica OFDM aplicada a dois modelos de propaga??o: um modelo geom?trico de dois raios e um modelo microcelular adaptado para a Avenida Paulista, S?o Paulo, SP, possuindo como objetivo a an?lise de um sistema de comunica??o m?vel atrav?s do c?lculo da Taxa de Erro de Bit (BER, do ingl?s, Bit Error Rate). Na aplica??o desenvolvida utilizando o software MATLAB (MATrix LABoratory), o sistema de comunica??o m?vel baseado em OFDM assume diversos cen?rios durante as simula??es, de forma que esses cen?rios s?o relacionados ao posicionamento das antenas, alturas, tipo de modula??o, tamanho da sequ?ncia de bits a ser enviada, entre outras. A arquitetura OFDM adotada foi a IFFT/FFT e baseado nela, o sistema realiza a transmiss?o e a recep??o de um conjunto de bits por um canal com interfer?ncias utilizando diferentes modula??es digitais, fazendo as devidas compara??es.

A review of existing theories of diffraction is presented, as well as topics of analysis of electromagnetic signals propagation and propagation models. In the sequence the assumptions of the proposition of the diffraction and propagation model are discussed in order to justify the proposed model. Finally comparative theoretical and experimental results are presented about this new model. / Este trabalho prop?e um novo Modelo de Propaga??o que considera difra??o lateral em edif?cios para predi??es de n?vel de sinal ponto-multiponto.
