The Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing- Multiple Input Multiple Output (OFDM-MIMO) is an efficient method that helps in combatting the fading and providing higher SNR to the WiMAX system. According to the IEEE 802.16 specification, for QPSK modulation, a threshold SNR of 6 dB is required for the link to operate. In the present work the use of OFDM-MIMO achieves a SNR above this operating threshold.}, type={Article}, title={Performance Improvements in SNR of a Multipath Channel Using OFDM-MIMO}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/129120/PDF-MASTER/18-4105-Enoch-sk.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ijet.2023.147700}, keywords={WiMAX, fade mitigation, OFDM, MIMO, cyclic prefix, guard time}, }
