In this paper, we introduce the combination of OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) and MIMO(Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology, and explain that this combination seems to be very preferable when designing very high-rate wireless mobile systems. The application of OFDM, with the block diagrams of an OFDM modulator and demodulator and a MIMO-OFDM system, are described. The several diversities are studied at the receiver, analyzed the performances of diversity in OFDM-MIMO system and simulated results.

MIMO system takes advantage of the spatial diversity obtained by spatially separated antennas for high- performance and high-capacity broadband wireless access. In this paper, we propose Carrier Interferometry coded MIMO-OFDM system (MIMO-CI/OFDM) which provides frequency and spatial diversity. One combined diversity gains featly improve the performance of OFDM systems. To perform a performance analysis, we have used SPW platform that provides an easy tool to analyze the performance. The results show that the performance of MIMO-CI/OFDM shows an approximately 4dB gain over the MIMO-OFDM even in highly frequency selective fading channels.

In this paper, the new beamforming is proposed for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) system with multi-input multi-output(MIMO). Through the proposed Pre-FFT beamforming technique for MIMO-OFDM, the multibeams are formed toward each multi-transmitter antenna of the desired user. The proposed beamforming for MIMO-OFDM can reduce cochannel interference and get diversity gain in the multi-user environment. Therefore, the performance of MIMO-OFDM system is very improved. BER performance improvement of the proposed approach is investigated through computer simulation by applying it to MIMO-OFDM system in the multi-user environment.

This paper proposes an area-efficient pipeline FFT processor for MIMO-OFDM systems with four transmitting and four receiving antennas. Since the MIMO-OFDM system transmits multiple data streams, the complexity for the MIMO-OFDM system with a single-channel FFT processor increases linearly with the increase of the number of transmit channels. The proposed FFT processor is based on multi-channel structure, and therefore it can efficiently support multiple data streams. With the mixed radix algorithm, the number of non-trivial multiplications of the proposed FFT processor is decreased. The proposed FFT processor is synthesized with CMOS $0.18{\mu}m$ process and reduces the logic gates by 25% over a 4-channel Radix-4 multi-path delay commutator (R4MDC) FFT processor. Since the MIMO-OFDM FFT processor is one of the largest modules in the systems, the proposed FFT processor will be a vast contribution improvement to the low complexity design of MIMO-OFDM systems.

In this paper, the new technique combining beamforming with space-time coding is proposed for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) system with multi-input multi-output(MIMO). When MIMO-OFDM system is employing Nt(the number of transmitterantenna) beamfomers and one S-T decoder at Nr receiver antennas, Nt signals removed CCI are outputted at the beamformer and then diversity gain can be got through space-time decoding. As the proposed technique can reduce cochannel interference and get diversity gain in the multi-user environment, the performance of MIMO-OFDM system is very improved. BER performance improvement and convergence behavior of the proposed approach are investigated through computer simulation by applying it to MIMO-OFDM system in the multi-user environment.

In the case of the requirement of high speed transmission, OFDM is a powerful technique employed in communications systems suffering from frequency selective fading. In this paper, we apply an optimal adaptive bitloading algorithm technique. The BER performance of the fixed-rate SISO and adaptive SISO is simulated. Specially, we can decompose the MIMO channel into the SISO channel by making use of the singular value decomposition(SVD) assuming channel knowledge in a multipath environment. As a results of simulation, we confirmed that the BER enhancement of MIMO-OFDM system with the bitloadins algorithm was superior to the SISO-OFDM system.

In this paper, we extend SVR-MMSE detection scheme which is proposed in MIMO system to MIMO-OFDM system, and evaluate performance of the system in frequency selective fading channel. First of all, we explain about typical MIMO-OFDM system and detection scheme of constant modulus signals in this system. And compare proposed SVR-MMSE with Zero Forcing, Minimum Mean Square Error which is conventional detection scheme. we identify that the performance of the proposed system is shown different by varying doppler frequency in frequency selective fading channel using jakes channel model. The result of detection performance by the proposed SVR-MMSE in this simulation, it shows that proposed algorithm have a good performance in MIMO-OFDM systems.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with space-time coding (STC) is a promising technology for future wireless communication systems. However, MIMO-OFDM systems are greatly impaired by large cochannel interference (CCI) from the multiple transmitters. In this paper, we propose pre-fast Fourier transform (FFT) multibeamforming based on MMSE(minimizing the mean squared error) for a MIMO-OFDM system to preserves the STC diversity and to remove the CCI. The improvement in bit error rate is investigated through computer simulation of a MIMO-OFDM system in a multipath channel with CCI.

Research about the mode of MIMO that can get a coding benefit at the same time with a diversity benefit using a multiple antenna at the fading channel for a high-speed data transmission have been processed actively But the analysis about the interference of UWB system comes not to consist yet. So this paper analyzed the performance of the interference of UWB system to SFBC-OFDM and SFTC-OFDM system that applied a space block code which has a space diversity characteristic to OFDM system at MIMO channel. We shelved the performance that SFTC-OFDM system is robuster than SFBC-OFDM system under MB-OFDM UWB Interference.

This paper proposes a hybrid symbol offset estimation algorithm for MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) OFDM system. As MIMO OFDM systems are multiple transmitter and receiver antenna systems, apart from SISO(Single Input Single Output) system, it is possible to use several combining techniques which are used in multiple receive antenna system. In this paper, we propose hybrid symbol offset estimation algorithms using combining techniques in multiple receive antenna systems, simulate and show the performances in MIMO system environments. The proposed equal gain combining correlation algorithm has better performance 1.8 times in searching the ideal symbol offset rather than the conventional early symbol offset algorithm in severe ISI channel.
