Performance of fourier-based and wavelet-based OFDM for DVB-T systems

We present a comparative study on Fourier-based OFDM (FFT-OFDM) and wavelet-based OFDM (DWT-OFDM)in DVB-T system (DWT being the discrete wavelet transform). We found that the DWT-OFDM outperforms FFT-OFDM in AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels. For AWGN channel, the gain in term of energy per bit to n...

In terms of Eb/No, DWT-OFDM surpassed FFT-OFDM by 9 dB at 0.02 BER.

The DWT-OFDM’s with db8 and Haar outperformed FFT-OFDM by 7 and 2 dB, respectively, at BER of 0.01 in the flat fading channel. In addition, DWT-OFDM and FFT-OFDM showed about the same performance below 10 dB of Eb/No in frequency selective fading.
