Method and apparatus for modulating symbols in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system and transmission apparatus using the same

摘要

A method for modulating a symbol in a transmitter of an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system. The symbol modulation method includes multiplying an input stream of an Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) unit by a Twiddling factor for circular-shifting the input stream of the IFFT unit by a Cyclic Prefix (CP) length; performing IFFT on the input stream of the IFFT unit, which is multiplied by the Twiddling factor; buffering data corresponding to the CP length beginning from a front of an output stream of the IFFT unit; and generating an OFDM symbol by forward-copying the buffered data to a back of the output stream of the IFFT unit.
