values after calling the object. Objects lock when you call them, and the
release
function unlocks them.
If a property is tunable, you can change its value at any time.

(default) | positive integer
Number of FFT points, specified as a positive, integer scalar. The length of the FFT must be greater than or equal to 8 and is equivalent to the number of subcarriers.
NumGuardBandCarriers
— Number of subcarriers allocated to left and right guard bands
[6; 5]
(default) | 2-by-1 integer vector
Number of subcarriers allocated to the left and right guard bands, specified as a
2-by-1 integer vector. The number of left and right guard-band subcarriers,
[NleftG;
NrightG], must fall within [0,⌊NFFT / 2 ⌋ − 1], where NFFT is the total
number of subcarriers in the OFDM signal specified by FFTLength
.
For more information, see Subcarrier Allocation, Guard Bands, and Guard Intervals.

false
or 0
(default) | true
or 1
Option to insert a null DC subcarrier, specified as a numeric or logical
0
(false
) or 1
(true
). When inserted, the null DC subcarrier is at the center of
the frequency band and has the index value:
(NFFT / 2) + 1 when NFFT is even.
(NFFT + 1) / 2 when NFFT is odd.
NFFT is the total number of
subcarriers in the OFDM signal specified by FFTLength
.
PilotInputPort
— Option to input pilot subcarriers
false
or 0
(default) | true
or 1
Option to input pilot subcarriers, specified as a numeric or logical
0
(false
) or 1
(true
). When you set this property to:
false
— The input data,X
, may include embedded pilot information but the object does not assign pilot subcarrier indices.true
— The object assigns subcarriers specified byPilotCarrierIndices
for pilot modulation of the signal at thepilot
input argument.
PilotCarrierIndices
— Indices of pilot subcarrier locations
[12; 26; 40; 54]
(default) | column vector | matrix | 3D array
Indices of the pilot subcarrier locations, specified as a column vector, matrix, or 3D array with integer-element values in the range
where NFFT is the total
number of subcarriers specified by FFTLength
,
and NleftG and
NrightG are the left and right guard bands
specified by NumGuardBandCarriers
.
You can assign the NPilot pilot carrier indices to the same or different NSym subcarriers for each symbol, and across NT transmit antennas.
When the pilot indices are the same for every symbol and transmit antenna, the property has dimensions of NPilot-by-1.
When the pilot indices vary across symbols, the property has dimensions of NPilot-by-NSym.
If the
pilot
input has only one symbol but the object configuration assigns multiple transmit antennas, the property has dimensions of NPilot-by-1-by-NT.If the indices vary across the number of symbols and transmit antennas, the property has dimensions of NPilot-by-NSym-by-NT.
Tip
To minimize interference between transmissions across more than one transmit antenna, the pilot indices per symbol must be mutually distinct across the antennas.
Dependencies
This property applies when you set PilotInputPort
to 1
.

— Length of cyclic prefix
16
(default) | positive integer | row vector
Length of the cyclic prefix for each OFDM symbol, specified as a positive, integer
scalar or row vector containing NumSymbols
elements. The cyclic prefix length must be in the range [0,
NFFT], where
NFFT is the total number of subcarriers in
the OFDM signal specified by FFTLength
.
When you specify the cyclic prefix length as a:
Scalar — The cyclic prefix length is the same for all symbols through all antennas.
Row vector — The cyclic prefix length may vary across symbols but does not vary across antennas.
Windowing
— Option to apply raised cosine windowing between OFDM symbols
false
or 0
(default) | true
or 1
Option to apply raised cosine windowing between the OFDM symbols, specified as a
numeric or logical 0

(default) | positive integer
Length of the raised cosine window, specified as a positive, integer scalar. This
value must be less than or equal to the minimum cyclic prefix length specified by
CyclicPrefixLength
. For example, in a configuration of four symbols with
cyclic prefix lengths 12, 14, 16, and 18, the window length must be less than or equal
to 12.
Dependencies
To enable this property, set the Windowing
property to true
.
OversamplingFactor
— Oversampling factor
1
(default) | positive scalar
Oversampling factor, specified as a positive scalar. The oversampling factor must satisfy these constraints:
(
OversamplingFactor
×FFTLength
) must be an integer value.(
OversamplingFactor
×CyclicPrefixLength
) must be an integer value.If you set
Windowing
totrue
, (OversamplingFactor
×WindowLength
) must be an integer value.
Tip
If you set the oversampling factor to a noninteger rational number, specify a fractional value
rather than a decimal value. For example, with an FFT length of 12
and an
oversampling factor of 4/3
, their product is the integer
16
. However, rounding 4/3
to
1.333
when setting the oversampling factor results in a noninteger
product of 15.9960
, which results in a code error.

Number of OFDM symbols in the time-frequency grid, specified as a positive, integer scalar.
NumTransmitAntennnas
— Number of transmit antennas

Algorithms
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
OFDM belongs to the class of multicarrier modulation schemes. Because the operation can transmit multiple carriers simultaneously, noise does not influence OFDM to the same degree as single-carrier modulation.
OFDM operation divides a high-rate data stream into low-rate data substreams by decomposing the transmission frequency band into a number of contiguous individually modulated subcarriers. This set of parallel and orthogonal subcarriers carry the data stream occupying almost the same bandwidth as a wideband channel. By using narrow orthogonal subcarriers, the OFDM signal gains robustness over a frequency-selective fading channel and eliminates adjacent subcarrier interference. Intersymbol interference (ISI) is reduced because the lower data rate substreams have symbol durations larger than the channel delay spread.
This image shows a frequency domain representation of orthogonal subcarriers in an OFDM waveform.
The transmitter applies inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) to N symbols at a time. Typically, the output of the IFFT is the sum of the N orthogonal sinusoids:
where {Xk} are data symbols, and T is the OFDM symbol time. The data symbols Xk are typically complex and can be from any digital modulation alphabet (for example, QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM, etc.).
Note
The MATLAB® implementation of the discrete Fourier transform normalizes the output of
the IFFT by 1/N. For more information, see Discrete Fourier Transform of Vector
on the ifft
reference page.
The subcarrier spacing is Δf = 1/T, ensuring that the subcarriers are orthogonal over each symbol period:
An OFDM modulator consists of a serial-to-parallel conversion followed by a bank of N complex modulators, individually corresponding to each OFDM subcarrier.
Subcarrier Allocation, Guard Bands, and Guard Intervals
Individual OFDM subcarriers are allocated as data, pilot, or null subcarriers.
As shown here, subcarriers are designated as data, DC, pilot, or guard-band subcarriers.
Data subcarriers transmit user data.
Pilot subcarriers are for channel estimation.
Null subcarriers transmit no data. Subcarriers with no data provide a DC null and serve as buffers between OFDM resource blocks.
The null DC subcarrier is the center of the frequency band with an index value of (
nfft
/2 + 1) ifnfft
is even, or ((nfft
+ 1) / 2) ifnfft
is odd.The guard bands provide buffers between adjacent signals in neighboring bands to reduce interference caused by spectral leakage.
Null subcarriers enable you to model guard bands and DC subcarrier locations for specific standards, such as the various 802.11 formats, LTE, WiMAX, or for custom allocations. You can allocate the location of nulls by assigning a vector of null subcarrier indices.
Similar to guard bands, guard intervals protect the integrity of transmitted signals in OFDM by reducing intersymbol interference.
Assignment of guard intervals is analogous to the assignment of guard bands. You can model guard intervals to provide temporal separation between OFDM symbols. The guard intervals help preserve intersymbol orthogonality after the signal passes through time-dispersive channels. You create guard intervals by using cyclic prefixes. Cyclic prefix insertion copies the last part of an OFDM symbol as the first part of the OFDM symbol.
OFDM benefits from the use of cyclic prefix insertion as long as the span of the time dispersion does not exceed the duration of the cyclic prefix.
Inserting a cyclic prefix results in a fractional reduction of user data throughput because the cyclic prefix occupies bandwidth that could be used for data transmission.
OFDM Raised Cosine Windowing
OFDM raised cosine windowing applies techniques described in [3] to limit spectral regrowth by creating a smooth transition between the last sample of one symbol and the first sample of the next symbol.
While the cyclic prefix creates a guard period in time domain to preserve orthogonality, an OFDM symbol rarely begins with the same amplitude and phase that it exhibits at the end of the prior OFDM symbol, which causes spectral regrowth and, therefore, spreads the signal bandwidth due to intermodulation distortion. To limit this spectral regrowth, you can create a smooth transition between the last sample of a symbol and the first sample of the next symbol by using a cyclic suffix and raised cosine windowing.
The discussion and figures in this section assume an oversampling factor of 1. To create the cyclic suffix, the operation appends the first NWIN samples of a given symbol to the end of that symbol. However, to comply with the IEEE® 802.11g standard, for example, the operation cannot arbitrarily lengthen the symbol. Instead, the cyclic suffix must overlap in time and is effectively summed with the cyclic prefix of the following symbol. The operation applies two, mathematically inverse, windows in this overlapped segment. The first raised cosine window applies to the cyclic suffix of symbol k and decreases from 1 to 0 over its duration. The second raised cosine window applies to the cyclic prefix of symbol k+1 and increases from 0 to 1 over its duration. This process provides a smooth transition from one symbol to the next.
The raised cosine window, w(t), in the time domain can be expressed as:
where:
T is the OFDM symbol duration including the guard interval.
TW is the duration of the window.
Adjust the length of the cyclic suffix by setting the window length, with suffix lengths set between 1 and the minimum cyclic prefix length. While windowing improves spectral regrowth, it does so at the expense of multipath fading immunity because of reduced redundancy in the guard band due to guard band sample values changes to implement intersymbol transition smoothing.
