The conventional adaptive scheme is shown to be a special case of the conditionally adaptive scheme technique that enables the resulting nonconvex optimization problem which is solved in a feasible way. It leads to a solution for optimal power adaptation that maximizes the spectral efficiency of an OFDM system using M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (MQAM) under average power and instantaneous bit error rate (BER) constraints. Closed-form expressions for the average spectral efficiency (ASE) of adaptive OFDM systems are derived for perfect and imperfect CSI cases. The theoretical results and computer simulations show that range of the conditional adaptation becomes narrow and the performance of constant power and continuous rate is very close to that of the conditionally adaptive power and continuous rate for higher CFO or high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAverage spectral efficiency (ASE)Carrier frequency offset (CFO)Conditional power and rate adaptationIntercarrier interference (ICI)Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)Article504250551164WOS:00036501670001210.1109/TVT.2014.23771532-s2.0-84947792095Q1Q1
