DESCRIPTION:This is Part I of a Two Part Talk on OFDM. The abstract below i
 s for both Part I and II:\n\nThe main benefit of OFDM is its ability to co
 pe with severe multipath channel conditions without the need for complex e
 qualization filters. How does it accomplish this? The short answer: by &quot;di
 viding and conquering.&quot; It partitions a high-data-rate signal into smaller
  low-data-rate signals so that the data can be sent over many low-rate sub
 -channels.\n\nThe Time/Frequency relationships are presented with a figure
  that facilitates a straightforward understanding of the OFDM partitioning
  process. We emphasize the important role of the cyclic prefix (CP). We sh
 ow how it allows us to change linear convolution into circular convolution
 \, thereby purging any transients\, which helps to maintain waveform ortho
 gonality at the receiver.\n\nOFDM waveform synthesis is covered in detail.
  Also\, the spectral properties of Real and Imaginary signals are reviewed
 . We further consider the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in OFDM\, and
  how the desire for small PAPR has given rise to a special variant of OFDM
  called single-carrier OFDM (SC-OFDM). Finally\, we illustrate application
 s of this elegant technology in standards such as 802.11 and LTE.\n\nSpeak
