Abstract:

In a fully-loaded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) cellular environment with a frequency reuse factor equal to 1, any users moving at the cell boundary at a high speed will suffer both an inter-carrier interference caused by the time varying (TV) channels and an inter-cell interference. The scheme of pilot design in the downlink at the cell boundary is addressed, aiming at mitigating the two interferences mentioned above. The properties of the pilots are described, and the simulation results are presented.

Key words: orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, pilot design, inter-carrier interference
