GSC-Based Equalizer for CP-Free SIMO OFDM Systems with Oblique Projector

In orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems, when transmitted blocks of signal through the multipath channel, the present transmitted blocks of signal will be interfered by the previous one due to the effect of channel delay spread. In order to solve this problem, conventionally we introduce a guard interval in transmitted blocks of signal to avoid inter-block interference (IBI). The most popular methods of the guard interval insertion are zero-padding (ZP) and cyclic prefixing (CP). ZP insert the guard interval at the end of the transmitted blocks of signal, in which all elements are zeros. The length of this interval must be equal to or greater then the channel order. In this way we can avoid IBI, at the expense of lossing the orthogonality between subcarrier due to the multipath channel. However, we can use CP to cope whit this problem. In CP we copy the 25% length at the end of the transmitted blocks of signal, and put it in front of the transmitted block to suppress the inter-block interference and inter-carrier interference.
In this thesis, we consider OFDM system without the guard interval, hence the received signal contains IBI and ICI. In our proposed scheme, we use an oblique projector (OB) to suppress IBI at first. Then we combine it with a generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) based equalizer [1] for ICI supppression and demodulate the receiver signal.
In computer simulations, we use the GSC-based equalizer with oblique projector to suppress IBI/ICI in the time-invariant channel and time-varying channel. As we will see, in the CP-free OFDM system, the oblique projector can suppress IBI exactly. Moreover we can get better performance in channel with larger order.
