OFDM for Advanced Wireless Communications

Technical Course on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing

Prior to its use in wireless systems, OFDM was more common known as DMT and found use in ADSL. The field of wireless communications has become more and more important in the past years, and new, advanced systems will go into operation soon. Examples are 3rd generation mobile telephone systems like UMTS, indoor communication systems like HIPERLAN and broadcast systems like DVB (digital video broadcast). OFDM is now a bandwidth efficient digital modulation technique which forms the basis of many wireless standards currently under development. OFDM techniques are extremely popular for wireless communications and are the base algorithm technology for standards as 802.11, 802.16 and 802.20.

Course dates and location

May 27th - 29th, 2008 in Munich, Germany
December 9th - 11th, 2008 in Munich, Germany



The 3-day short course incorporates everything from the fundamentals, advantages and disadvantages of OFDM modulation to receive synchronisation techniques and case studies of cutting edge standards. This course will be led by Professor Bob Stewart and integrate presentations and design sessions from other experienced design engineers from Steepest Ascent.
