Abstract

Des procédés et des architectures pour l'implémentation d'une porteuse unique par blocs utilisant le multiplexage par répartition orthogonale de la fréquence (MROF) comprennent l'ordonnancement d'une transmission d'utilisateurs d'une pluralité de symboles de données à modulation d'amplitude en quadrature (QAM) devant être envoyés à une sous-bande dans une pluralité limitée de sous-bandes d'une largeur de bande de fréquence disponible pour fournir un accès utilisateur multiple sur la pluralité limitée de sous-bandes. Un circuit de mise en forme de spectre applique un filtrage de mise en forme de transformation de Fourier discrète (TFD) et un filtrage de planification de sous-bande dans un signal de porteuse unique de domaine de fréquence. Un circuit de transformation de Fourier rapide inverse (TFRI) transforme des blocs du signal de porteuse unique dans le domaine fréquentiel en un signal multiplexé par une forme d'onde MROF pour permettre la transmission par liaison radio des symboles de données QAM en tant que symbole de données de porteuse unique par blocs (BWSC).
