Enhancing the BER of MIMO-OFDM systems for Speaker verification

Abstract

In this work a new algorithm has been proposed to improve the wireless systems that are compatible with the current new technologies. Therefore, Denoise Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols and Replace the high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR); (DORP) has been modified. In DORP, wavelets techniques have been used to denoise the affected OFDM symbol by high PAPR values. After that and based on adaptive threshold method the local maxima and minima will be determined and replaced by the average of them and their surrounding neighbors. The algorithm mainly tackles and overcomes the effect of the high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio problem that is found in OFDM systems, MIMO-OFDM combination has been developed to meet the rapidly increment in the users demand such as the ubiquitous transmission, imposing new multimedia applications and wireless services. A system performance investigation process will be accomplished based on both of numerical method and MATLAB simulation. Moreover, a comparison has been made to check the validity of our proposition either with our previously published work or with the literature. Although, the achieved results show that the proposed work gives an improvement of the BER; an additional complexity has been added to transceiver's structure. Moreover, and as a result to the comparison with the conventional systems, the bit error rate (BER) performance has been improved for the same bandwidth occupancy. As a validity process a comparison has been made with the current values found in the literature and we have achieved around 27% PAPR extra reduction. That is in addition to around 81% verification rate and noise immunity.
