Abstract
This work addresses the severe performance degradation for OFDM systems when long channel delays exceed the guard interval. Such long delays can be seen as an interference source on the one hand and also as a valuable frequency diversity source on the other hand. Instead of simply suppressing such long delays, e.g. by beamforming at the transmitter, we propose a new precoding scheme, which attempts to find an optimum trade-off between the interference suppression and the diversity gain. An optimization problem is formulated by exploiting only long-term channel state information instead of instantaneous one. Then, it is solved based on the minimum mean square error criterion with a constraint on the transmit power. Computer simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional beamforming scheme.
