OFDM-based WLAN systems are originally used for nearly static environment. But in the trend of user-convenience, if we want to support mobility, the most important issue is the Doppler effect caused by the object velocity. We investigate how the Doppler effect, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and imperfect estimation of channel impulse response (CIR) and the maximum Doppler shift fd influence the final bit error rate (BER) under the simulation environment, modified WLAN 802.11a specification. For these effects, we give some simulation results and conclusions.
If CIR and df are known with the same number of multipath, we can see some phenomenon. First, the BER is dominated by AWGN noise. Second, under the same channel delay spread, the higher the object velocity is, the more serious the BER is. Third, under the same the object velocity, the more serious the BER is. If CIR is known instead of fd, under the same error percentage of fd and the same number of multipath, the lesser the velocity is the lesser the BER curve changes. If fd is known instead of CIR with the same number of multipath, the longer the channel delay
spread is, the more serious the BER is.
