Abstract
In this paper, we study the effects of phase noise in a multicarrier system. We show that the phase noise introduces interference components, and we evaluate their second order statistics. The analysis is then applied to two particular multicarrier architectures: discrete multitone (DMT) modulation, and filtered multitone (FMT) modulation. For the DMT case, our results are in agreement with other related work that considers DMT only. For FMT modulation, we demonstrate that the phase noise power spectral density as well as the frequency response of the prototype filters play a key role on the resulting interference power value. Finally, we show that the analytical performance results are close to the simulation results
