Time and Frequency Parameter Lookup Table (802.16 OFDM)

The 802.16 OFDM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing: OFDM employs multiple overlapping radio frequency carriers, each operating at a carefully chosen frequency that is Orthogonal to the others, to produce a transmission scheme that supports higher bit rates due to parallel channel operation. OFDM is an alternative tranmission scheme to DSSS and FHSS. Time and Frequency Parameter Lookup Table provides signal information useful for evaluating and troubleshooting the physical layer of IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. A US-based membership organisation that includes engineers, scientists, and students in electronics and related fields. The IEEE developed the 802 series wired and wireless LAN standards. Visit the IEEE at http://www.ieee.org 802.16-2004 OFDM signals. Most of the parameters listed are directly measurable by a VSA or a high performance spectrum analyzer in zero span.

The frequency and time parameter table is intended as a useful reference tool, not a replacement for the IEEE standard specifications.

In the 802.16 OFDM modulation scheme, setting the value for Nominal Bandwidth will affect several other parameters. The following table shows the interrelation between the 802.16 OFDM (WiMAX) time and frequency parameters.
