BER performance study of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)

A mobile radio channel is characterized by a multipath fading environment. The signal is offered to the receiver contains not only line of sight of radio wave, but also a large number of reflected radio waves that arrive at the receiver at different times. Delayed signals are a result of reflections...
