Abstract

This paper develops a generalized framework for the analysis of multicarrier communication system, using a generic pair of transmitters- and receiver side terraforms, QT QR, such that the DFT-transform based conventional OFD is its special case. This analysis framework is then used to propose and prove theorems on various performance metrics of a multicarrier communication system, which will apply to any system that fits the architecture, which most will do. The analysis framework also derives previously unknown closed-form expressions for these metrics, such as how the performance degradation due to carrier frequency offset or timing synchronization error, amongst others, are function of generic transforms. While extensive work exists on the impact of these challenges on conventional OFDM, how are these functions of transform matrices is unknown in the literature. It will be shown, how the analysis of OFDM based system is special case of analysis in this paper. This paper is Part I of three paper series, where the other two supplements the arguments present here.
