Abstract

In this letter, a wireless local multipoint distribution system (LMDS) at millimeter waves for the last-mile broad-band distribution to users of interactive services is investigated. The system analyzed employs a coded orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing transmission scheme with frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) and/or time-division multiplexing techniques and adaptive carrier allocation to counteract the effects of the wireless communication channel. The idea of deploying the reverse channel (exploited by the user for interactivity purposes) to provide channel information to the broadcasting transmitter is introduced. System performance is evaluated for an urban microcellular radio system in an actual propagation environment and the choices of the optimum multiplexing technique and carrier allocation algorithm are discussed in the case of ideal feedback. It is found that a pure FDM technique combined with an adaptive carrier allocation algorithm giving priority to users having the largest path loss leads to the best performance
