Abstract

In response to the growing demand for low-cost low-power wireless sensor networks and related applications, we develop bit and power loading algorithms that minimize transmit-power for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) under rate and error probability constraints. Our novel algorithms exploit one of three types of channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT): deterministic (per channel realization) for slow fading links, statistical (channel mean) for fast fading links, and quantized (Q-) CSIT whereby a limited number of bits are fed back from the transmitter to the receiver. By adopting average transmit-power as a distortion metric, a channel quantizer is also designed to obtain a suitable form of Q-CSI. Numerical examples corroborate the analytical claims and reveal that significant power savings result even with a few bits of Q-CSIT.
