Q:

In MIMO, which factor has the greatest influence on data rates?

A) The size of antenna B) The height of the antenna
C) The number of transmit antennas D) The area of receive antennas
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) The number of transmit antennas

Explanation: By increasing the number of receiving and transmitting antennas, it is possible to linearly increase the throughput of the channel with every pair of antennas added to the system.

Q:

Common data rates of IEEE 802.11 OFDM are ____________

A) 18 Mbps B) 200 Mbps
C) 50 Mbps D) 54 Mbps
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 18 Mbps

Explanation: The IEEE 802.11a standard specifies a modulation that divides a high-speed serial information signal into multiple lower-speed sub signals. Common data rates of IEEE 802.11 OFDM is 18 Mbps.

Q:

When we divide band of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) into sub bands, it diminishes effects of __________

A) noise B) collision
C) interference D) signals absence
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) interference

Explanation: OFDM uses the same bandwidth to deliver roughly the same data rate as a single carrier modulation by introducing multiple lower-bandwidth channels. Each of the lower-bandwidth channels has a lower rate, and by combining them together, the original rate is achieved.

Q:

OFDM uses complex equalizers.

A) True B) False
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) False

Explanation: ODMA does not use complex equalizers. In OFDM, the equalizer only has to multiply each detected sub-carrier (each Fourier coefficient) in each OFDM symbol by a constant complex number, or a rarely changed value.

Q:

In OFDMA, what is the relationship between the subcarrier spacing f and symbol time t?

A) f=t B) f=1/2t
C) f=1/t D) no relation
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) f=1/t

Explanation: In OFDMA, the relationship between the subcarrier spacing f and symbol time t is f=1/t. They are inversely proportional.

Q:

Which property of OFDMA system allows adjacent subcarriers to be used without interference?

A) Orthogonality B) Orthodoxy
C) Octagonality D) Originality
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Orthogonality

Explanation: Orthogonality of sub-carriers simply means their correlation is zero. Orthogonality in OFDMA system allows adjacent subcarriers to be used without interference.
