Title
The Influence of Non-Linear Distortion on OFDM Bit Error Rate
Abstract
The influence of bandpass non-linear distortion on an OFDM signal is investigated. The spectrum of the distorted signal and the resulting detection errors are determined. Non-linear distortion of OFDM signals can significantly increase the receiver BER Previous analyses rely on simulation, or apply to specific non-linearities only. Here, an analysis is presented which is applicable to any weakly non-linear distortion of an OFDM signal Simple analytical expressions Pre derived which allow a designer to choose parameters without performing simulations. Further, it is Shown that the error on each OFDM subcarrier is approximately equally large.
