Impact of Synchronization Errors on the Performance of ACO-OFDMA Signaling for Medical Extra-WBAN Links

Abstract: This paper considers the use of infrared-based optical wireless communications for multi-user uplink wireless body-area networks. We propose the use of optical-orthogonal frequency division multiple access (O-OFDMA) signaling to manage the multiple access (MA) requirement for relatively high-rate medical applications. In particular, we consider asymmetrically clipped O-OFDMA and analyze its performance in terms of bit-errorrate and outage probability in the presence of multi-user time synchronization errors.

“…We assume perfect time synchronization for each mobile IoT device with the AP. Note that the error in time synchronization is a recurrent problem for OFDMA-based schemes, which is relatively low for an indoor scenario due to the limited mobility of the mobile users [31]. Also, in order to avoid MAI and so-called "near-far problems", both time and frequency synchronization is required for the RF OFDMA, typically referred as initial ranging [32].…”

“…For instance, the authors in [10] employed a dynamic TDMA scheme to maximize the spectral efficiency of a visible light communication (VLC) downlink transmission system. Also, non-orthogonal MA (NOMA) and orthogonal FDMA (OFDMA) have been extensively studied for VLC applications [11]- [13]. In [13], the asymmetrically-clipped O-OFDMA signaling was considered for optical extra-WBAN links while accounting for synchronization errors.…”
