 Default: See OFDM Standard Presets Table

Subcarrier Spacing specifies the subcarrier spacing of the 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. signal. The Subcarrier Spacing must match the input signal value. However, the value can be adjusted for troubleshooting purposes or to match a custom or nonstandard subcarrier spacing.
