Multicarrier modulation techniques have been proposed in the digital subscriber line (DSL) applications. In this paper, the performance of DMT (OFDM) and DWMT (DS-BMT) techniques for single and multitone interference are investigated. It is shown that a DMT system is sensitive to the location of narrow band interference. DMT technique needs additional narrow band interference canceller before forward F F T transform for performance improvements. In DSBMT technique, due to a limited spectral overlap between its subcarriers, single (multi)-tone interference could effect only a few subchannels which correspond to these interferences. DSBMT has a superior performance than DMT.

Abstract-This paper presents conventional and emerging applications of orthogonal synthesis/analysis transform configurations (transmultiplexer) in communications. It emphasizes that orthogonality is the underlying concept in the design of many communication systems. It is shown that orthogonal filter banks (subband transforms) with proper time-frequency features can play a more important role in the design of new systems. The general concepts of filter bank theory are tied together with the application-specific requirements of several different communication systems. Therefore, this paper is an attempt to increase the visibility of emerging communication applications of orthogonal filter banks and to generate more research activity in the signal processing community on these topics.
