FPGA implementation of an OFDM baseband transmitter

The main objective of this paper is to show the design implementation of an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) transmitter that will be part of a future DVB-T demonstrator. After system modeling and simulation, we proceeded with the design architecture synthesis which will be mapped to the Virtex-II Pro™ devices. Thanks to the flexibility of the proposed architecture, the transmitter can be updated to modulate any other communication system with relatively little effort.
