<strong>Multi</strong>-<strong>Carrier</strong> Transmission 33When ISI <strong>and</strong> ICI can be neglected, the multi-carrier transmission system shown inFigure 1-6 can be viewed as a discrete time <strong>and</strong> frequency transmission system with aset of N c parallel Gaussian channels with different complex-valued attenuations H n (seeFigure 1-7).A time/frequency representation of an <strong>OFDM</strong> symbol is shown in Figure 1-8(a). Ablock of subsequent <strong>OFDM</strong> symbols, where the information transmitted within these<strong>OFDM</strong> symbols belongs together, e.g. due to coding <strong>and</strong>/or spreading in the time <strong>and</strong>frequency directions, is referred to as an <strong>OFDM</strong> frame. An <strong>OFDM</strong> frame consisting ofN s <strong>OFDM</strong> symbols with frame durationis illustrated in Figure 1-8(b).T fr = N s T ′s (1.44)H 0 N 0S 0 R 0S/PH Nc −1• • •N Nc −1P/SS Nc −1R Nc −1Figure 1-7Simplified multi-carrier transmission system using <strong>OFDM</strong><strong>OFDM</strong> symbols0N s −1subcarriers0subcarriers0nsymbol onsubcarrier nB = N c F sN c −1 F s =1T sN c −1T s ′(a) <strong>OFDM</strong> symbolT fr = N s T s ′(b) <strong>OFDM</strong> frameFigure 1-8Time/frequency representation of an <strong>OFDM</strong> symbol <strong>and</strong> an <strong>OFDM</strong> frame
