What does FFT do in OFDM?
Implementation of OFDM deals with application of Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to modulation and demodulation processes to generate carriers orthogonal to each other. In conventional system, IFFT (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) is used at transmitter side and FFT is used in receiver side.
How many OFDM symbols are there?
The number of OFDM symbols per slot is 14 for a configuration using normal cyclic prefix. For extended cyclic prefix, the number of OFDM symbols per slot is 12.
