Intercarrier interference analysis for high-speed trains based on broadband channel measurements

This letter presents an analysis of intercarrier interference (ICI) in high-speed trains. The ICI is caused by the motion of the receiver together with the carrier frequency offset (CFO). It results in a degradation of the reliability of the OFDM transmission. The analysis is based on a channel sounding measurement campaign for cellular broadband wireless communications with high-speed trains that was carried out in the context of the CORRIDOR project. The considered scenario corresponds to a railway deployed network, where the base station is located directly next to the railway line. We present the ICI power obtained with the measurement campaign and some theoretical results for a simple channel model that captures the main effects observed in the measurements.
