WHT/OFDM - an improved OFDM transmission method for selective fading channels

The application of the Walsh-Hadamard transformation is proposed as the means to combat the influence of selective fading on the OFDM system performance. Substantial improvement as compared with the OFDM system applying the adaptive equalizer at the receiver is shown by simulation.
