Abstract

ABSTRACT In this paper, we study the performance of the Digital Video Broadcasting- Terrestrial (DVB-T) system with Continuous Phase Modulation Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (CPM-OFDM). The proposed structure combines the advantage of mitigating the Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) problem in the Power Amplifier (PA)in addition to exploiting the channel frequency diversity and power efficiency of CPM. The proposed CPM-OFDM DVB-T system is implemented with Frequency-Domain Equalization (FDE) to avoid the complexity of the equalization. Two types of frequency domain equalizers are considered and compared for performance evaluation of the system; the Zero-Forcing (ZF) equalizer and the Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) equalizer. Simulation results show that the performance of the CPM-OFDM DVB-T system with multi-path fading is better than its performance with single-path fading. Keywords DVB-T; OFDM; CPM; ZF Equalizer; MMSE Equalizer; PAPR.
