Abstract

In this paper, a new interference nulling based channel independent precoding for MIMO-OFDM systems of nt transmit and nr receive antennas with insufficient cyclic prefix (CP) is proposed. By employing the notion of interference nulling, we show that our proposed channel independent precoding scheme can eliminate the inter-block interference (IBI) caused by the insufficient CP with higher bandwidth efficiency than the conventional zero-padded or a sufficient CP added block transmission system when nr≤ nt. It is also shown that when n r>nt, the IBI can be eliminated without the need of any zero-padding or adding CP or precoding when the OFDM block length is not too small.
