By utilizing the WLS-SVD of the variable design specification, we prove that both 1D constant filters and 1D polynomials possess either symmetry or antisymmetry simultaneously. Therefore, a VFD filter can be efficiently obtained by designing 1D constant filters with symmetric or antisymmetric coefficients and performing 1D symmetric or antisymmetric polynomial approximations. Our computer simulations have shown that the WLS-SVD design can achieve much higher design accuracy with significantly reduced filter complexity than the existing WLS design method.","PeriodicalId":185817,"journal":{"name":"The 2004 47th Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems, 2004.

Since input data in the XDSL are symmetric, the computation of the IFFT can be reduced to multiplication accumulation operations in the real part. Furthermore, consideration is taken to process all multiplication operations together to lower hardware complexity. By separating all multiplication and accumulation operations into two groups, only an interface is needed to be the bridge between the two. The coefficients of the IFFT are represented by the canonic signed digits (CSDs) so that their shared terms are derived to reduce the number of adders for accomplishing multiplication operations. By using multiplexors to do the interface, the computation results from the multiplication part are distributed to their corresponding accumulators according to a time sequence. In addition, the size of the word length can be adequately selected to match the required signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). As compared to the conventional IFFT architectures, the proposed IFFT architecture can have the least hardware complexity at the same throughput rate and SNR performance.","PeriodicalId":185817,"journal":{"name":"The 2004 47th Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems, 2004.

Bit-rate and bit error rate can be improved by utilizing adaptive modulation scheme on each subcarrier. Multiplexing is also possible by allocating subcarriers to multiple users. Since users have different channels, the quality of OFDM-based multiplexing systems depends on the subcarrier allocation. In this paper, we consider a subcarrier allocation and adaptive modulation for a multiuser OFDM system. We impose a transmission power constraint on each user to achieve a fair resource allocation. Under this condition, we propose a method to maximize the sum of each user's bit-rate. The effectiveness of the proposed method is numerically evaluated by simulation examples.","PeriodicalId":185817,"journal":{"name":"The 2004 47th Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems, 2004.
