Performance Analysis of a Low-Interference N-Continuous OFDM Scheme
This paper investigates two issues of power spectrum density (PSD) and bit
error rate (BER) of an N-continuous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing
(NC-OFDM) aided low-interference time-domain scheme, when the smooth signal is
designed by the linear combination of basis signals truncated by a window.
Based on the relationship between the continuity and sidelobe decaying, the PSD
performance is first analyzed and compared, in terms of the highest derivative
order (HDO) N and the length of the smooth signal L. Since the high-order
derivative of the truncation window has the finite continuity, the N-continuous
signal has two finite continuities, which may have different continuous
derivative orders. In this case, we develop a close PSD expression by
introducing another smooth signal, which is also linearly combined by other
basis signals, to explain the sidelobe decaying related to N and L. Then, in
the context of BER, considering the multipath Rayleigh fading channel, based on
the effect of the delayed tail of the smooth signal to the received signal, we
provide a procedure for calculating the BER expressed in the form of an
asymptotic summation.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure
