Abstract

See full text

A system communicates data and includes a transmitter for transmitting a communications signal that carries communications data. It includes an efficient modulator for approximating the frequencies of sine/cosine basis waveforms using complex exponential functions and adding and subtracting the complex exponential functions to generate an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) communications signal as a plurality of N data subcarriers that carry communications data as data symbols. A receiver receives the OFDM communications signal and includes a demodulation circuit for demodulating the OFDM communications signal using logical shifts of multiples +/−2p based on complex exponential functions corresponding to sine/cosine basis waveform approximations to extract amplitude and phase values from a plurality of N data subcarriers as data symbols within the OFDM communications signal.
