Abstract

Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) is becoming a very promising candidate for Long Term Evolution (LTE) and future Forth Generation (4G) technology specifications. This paper presents the work-in-progress development of an OFDMA wireless system model, which runs on top of the Wireless Mobile SIMulation platform (WM-SIM). The main physical (PHY) and Medium Access Control (MAC) functionalities at the radio interface have been implemented and evaluated. A multi-user downlink scheme, where a Base Station (BS) transmits variable-rate information to a set of mobile terminals, is assumed. Performance results show the accuracy of the simulations compared to theoretical estimations.
