Abstract :
In this paper, the problem of subchannel composition and allocation for the downlink of an OFDMA system is investigated. The subchannelization mode FUSC adopted in 802.16 is described and compared with dynamic subcarrier allocation algorithms. Performances are evaluated regarding spectral efficiency and complexity. Both single cell and multi-cell scenarios are considered.
