Abstract-In this paper we propose a new lossless compression algorithm suitable for Internet of Things (IoT). The proposed algorithm, named RAKE, is based only on elementary counting operations and has low memory requirements, and therefore it can be easily implemented in low-cost and low-speed microcontrollers as those used in IoT devices. Despite its simplicity, simulation results show that, in the case of sparse sequences, the proposed algorithm outperforms well-known lossless compression algorithms such as rar, gzip and bzip2. Moreover, in the case of real-world data, RAKE achieves higher compression ratios as even compared to IoT-specific lossless compression algorithms.
<span>In this work, the influence of the cyclic prefix on the performance of the OFDM system is studied. We worked out an OFDM transceiver using a 16 QAM modulation scheme, a comparison of the BER for various lengths of the cyclic prefix has been achieved, and the influence of the noise introduced in the channel has been highlighted, for both a Gaussian and Rayleigh noise. The simulation was carried out on MATLAB where the curves of the BER for various lengths of the cyclic prefix are given and compared. We also adopted as a metric the QAM constellation to show the dispersion of the carriers as a consequence of the transmission channel, the mitigation of this effect by the CP is noticeable.</span>
