Cyclic Prefix

The document discusses the importance of cyclic prefix insertion in OFDM signal generation, highlighting its role in preventing intersymbol interference caused by multipath propagation. It explains that while cyclic prefix may seem redundant, it is crucial for maintaining orthogonality between subcarriers and enabling circular convolution, which is essential for accurate frequency-domain equalization in receivers. Additionally, the document includes code snippets related to random number generation and array initialization.

Cyclic prefix insertion is an important function during OFDM signal generation. A


cyclic prefix is necessary to prevent interference from previously transmitted OFDM
symbols. The intersymbol interference can be viewed as a direct result of multipath
propagation. At first glance, cyclic prefix insertion may be regarded as a useless
operation since it is merely repeats a copy of the existing data in the OFDM symbol
and does not add any new information. However, it is instrumental for multiple
reasons. First, it helps maintain orthogonality between subcarriers in the
receiver, which is one of the foundations of an orthogonal frequency division
transmission. It also provides a periodic extension to the OFDM signal through
which the “linear convolution” operation performed on the transmitted signal by the
channel can be approximated by a “circular convolution” operation. Mimicking a
circular convolution with a cyclic prefix is quite important if you want OFDM to
represent the modulated signal in the frequency domain. The validity of the
frequency-domain equalization performed in the receiver is only ensured if channel
response can be viewed as circular convolution, something that cyclic prefix
insertion can ensure.
