Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing(OFDM) has been developed into a popular modulation scheme for wireless communication systems, used in applications such as LTE and 5 G. In wireless communication systems, nonlinearity caused by radio frequency(RF)amplifiers will generate distortions to both passband and adjacent channels such that the transmission quality is degraded. The study of this article aims to predict the power spectrum for OFDM based signals at the output of an RF amplifier due to the nonlinearity. In this article,based on Taylor polynomial coefficients, a power spectrum expression for amplified OFDM signals in terms of intercept points(up to nth-order) is derived. This model is useful to RF engineers in choosing and testing RF amplifiers with appropriate specifications, such as intercept points and gain, to meet the requirements of wireless standards. Measurements are carried out to confirm the results of the proposed model.
Amidst growing global concerns over climate change and escalating greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels, the pursuit of renewable energy sources has become critical. This study focuses on harnessing hydropower us...
