Compensation of Carrier Frequency Offsets in V-BLAST OFDM Systems with Distributed Transmit Antennas Using Zero-Forcing Detection
<FONT face=Verdana>In Vertical Bell labs LAyered Space-Time (V-BLAST) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems with distributed transmit antennas
since the Carrier Frequency Offsets (CFO) between the receiver and each transmit antenna are possibly different
the simple CFO compensation method used in conventional systems becomes invalid. Rather than the existing linear frequency-domain equalization method that involves computationally complex matrix inversions
we proposed a CFO compensation method without need for matrix inversion by exploiting the underlying characteristics of the Zero-Forcing (ZF) detection and assuming low delay spread of the multipath channel. Simulation results show that the Symbol Error Rate (SER) performance of the system is significantly improved by using the proposed CFO compensation method in the low delay spread cases of the three test environments in the ITU-R M.1225 channel model.
