Abstract

In order to combat frequency-selective fading, the OFDM technology has been developed and widely used in wireless communications. The principle of OFDM is provided in this chapter. Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO), one of challenges in OFDM systems is discussed. The Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) technique, which is closely related to OFDM, is presented. Finally, a number of OFDM based wireless communication systems are discussed in detail, including Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO), Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) and Carrier Aggregation (CA).
