Analysis of filterbank and wavelet transceivers in the presence of carrier frequency offset

We investigate the performance of a transceiver based on wavelet packet modulation in presence of a carrier frequency offset. We propose a theoretical model to compute the error probability in the case of an uniform frequency subdivision, considering both the AWGN channel and an arbitrary frequency-selective channel. Then, we extend the proposed method to deal with nonuniform, i.e. wavelet, transceivers. The accuracy of the model is evaluated by means of computer simulations.
