INTRODUCTION
In order to combat the effect of multipath, OFDM systems is
mainly used.
Most common OFDM systems use cyclic-prefix so referred as
CP-OFDM.
a N sample OFDM symbol is cyclically extended by NG
samples where NG > L, and L is the length of the channel
impulse response.
OFDM symbol is cyclic convolution in the case of the CP-
OFDM system.2

INTRODUCTION CONTINUED.
Another way to deal with multipath is to pad the N sample
OFDM symbol with NG zeroes, referred as Zero-padded
OFDM (ZP-OFDM) system.
One of the main advantages of ZP-OFDM as compared to
CP-OFDM is that the total transmitted energy can be reduced.
Equalization at the receiver needs to be performed differently
because the convolution of the channel with the OFDM
symbol is now a linear convolution than cyclic convolution.

SIGNAL MODEL
For any L, let us first define a (L x L) Fourier matrix as follows:
Data vector of length N be a = [a0 a1 aN1]
The OFDM symbol derived by taking the IFFT of a be
= A = [A0 A1AN1]
The vector A is extended by NG zeroes, where NG is thelength of the guard interval.
A is transmitted over a channel with impulse response
denoted by
we have explicitly forced the impulse response of the channelto be at most NG +1 samples long.

SIGNAL MODEL CONT.
The received vector r can be expressed in terms of the channel
h and transmitted vector A as follows:

The eigen-vector matrix is the Fourier matrix, Hc can be written

is a N +NGdimensional diagonal matrix of eigen values i ofHc.
These eigen values are also the FFT of the channel i.e.
The received vector is

We will now describe a number of estimators for a based onequations (2) and (3).

A. OVERLAP-ADD(OLA) EQUALIZER
Adding last NG samples of the received vector r to the first NGsamples, we get the signal model:
We get overlap-add (OLA) equalizer by taking N-point FFTs ofboth sides.
Exhibit similar performance as the CP-OFDM system, sincespectral-nulls will be inverted.
No performance improvement as compared to a CP-OFDM
system.

B. LEAST-SQUARES(LS) EQUALIZER
For the transmitted signal vector a
LS equalizer is
The estimation noise is colored, which may have an effect oncoded systems.
For large N, the complexity can be high since the equalizerinvolves the inverse of a channel-dependent matrix that is not adiagonal matrix..
Guarantees symbol recovery even in the presence of spectralnulls.
Better performance than the OLA equalizer

C. SUBOPTIMAL LEAST-SQUARES(SLS) EQUALIZER
First multiply R by 1 , and then do a LSestimator for a.
Much easier to implement than the LS equalizer.
If there is a spectral null, the estimate error will be
high. Performance is similar to the OLA equalizer.

D. TRUNCATEDSUBOPTIMAL (TS) EQUALIZER
For the truncated, suboptimal (TS) equalizer:
Matrix T has been truncated to remove the small eigen
values. Hence the inverse will not cause excessive noise
enhancement.
For large N even this implementation would become
extremely complex. 10

E. SIMPLIFIEDTRUNCATEDSUBOPTIMAL (STS)
EQUALIZER
It can be described as
It is very simple to implement, since there are no non-diagonal
channel-dependent matrix inversions required.
since the small eigen values have been removed from T ,
noise enhancement is suppressed.

SOFT-METRIC CALCULATION FOR
CODED ZP-OFDM
Let us now consider a bit-interleaved-coded-modulation (BICM)
system.
One way to compute the soft-metrics of the bits is to first
equalize, using one of the above equalizers to form an estimate
a and then evaluate the soft-metric for the ith bit in the kth
symbol as follows:
where 2k is the variance of the kth component of the estimation
noise, which in general is colored.12

SOFT-METRIC CALCULATION FOR
CODED ZP-OFDM CONT.
An alternative way would be to start with eqn (3)
These soft-metrics are then used in a Viterbi decoder
to decode the transmitted sequence.
The decoder using the above metric is the maximum
likelihood (ML) receiver and in general this will give us
a lower bound on achievable performance. 13

CONCLUSIONS
We developed two new equalizers for ZP-OFDM: the TS and STSequalizers and showed their performance advantage over the more
commonly used OLA equalizer in channels with and without spectral
nulls.
STS equalizer can improve performance, especially in channels with
spectral nulls, using a larger FFT size.
STS initialization provides a faster convergence than the OLA
initialization especially for channels with spectral nulls.
It is feasible to obtain the performance of a LS equalizer in a coded
ZP-OFDM system without requiring matrix inverses of channel-
dependent non-diagonal matrices, by using the iterative method of
soft-metric calculation
