Detailed Documentation

This OFDM program implementation demonstrates a communication system with 64 subchannels utilizing 16QAM modulation. Each subcarrier transmits an equal data load of 4 bits per symbol without employing channel coding techniques. The system performance is evaluated through two distinct equalization approaches: Zero-Forcing (ZF) and Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) equalization. The ZF equalizer effectively eliminates Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) to enhance system stability, while the MMSE equalizer minimizes the mean square error to achieve superior Bit Error Rate (BER) performance. Through comparative analysis of these equalization techniques, this implementation determines the optimal approach for the specified OFDM configuration. The MATLAB code includes subcarrier allocation, QAM modulation/demodulation modules, and equalizer implementations using matrix inversion techniques for frequency-domain signal recovery.
