Abstract

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is one of the multicarrier transmission techniques used in wireless communication system. It has many benefits such as robust in channel fading and has high spectral density. The main objective of OFDM implementation in wireless communication system is to achieve less or zero Bit Error Rate (BER). However, OFDM design complexity, requirement and selection of the suitable modulation method are among the current issues. Thus, this paper aims to investigate the performance of OFDM in wireless communication by developing two OFDM based system designs. The transmitter, channel and receiver are designed based on OFDM system principles. Forward Error Correction (FEC) method is applied to reduce the BER. Both OFDM designs produce less BER with zero BER for the second OFDM design. The investigation study shows that the performance of OFDM can be enhanced by applying Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) technique. Zero BER can be achieved if the suitable modulation scheme is applied in the system. The developed designs are not complex, suitable to be applied for IEEE 802.11 standard. The BER performance can be influenced by the types of channels, signal to noise ratio (SNR) and various modulation schemes. Thus, this study can be used as a guidance to implement the OFDM in the current or future wireless communication system. Keywords: OFDM, enhanced BER performance, various modulation schemes and multipath channels
