Abstract :
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been widely used in wireless communication systems for the advantage of mitigating inter-symbol interference caused by multi-path propagation. However, OFDM based wireless communication systems, such as the ultra-wideband (UWB) system, suffer performance degradations caused by phase noise distortion. The phase noise distortion introduces two effects: common phase error (CPE) and inter-carrier interference (ICI). In this paper, the VLSI architecture for phase noise compensation based on decision feedback algorithm using MMSE equalization is investigated. Particularly, the finite word length effect specific to the architecture is analyzed considering the tradeoff between the performance and the hardware complexity.
