OFDM offers data rates up to 54 Mbps, but DSSS supports much lower limits. Compared with DSSS, which one of the following does OFDM leverage to achieve its superior data rates?
  • A.
    Higher-frequency band
  • B.
    Wider 20-MHz channel width
  • C.
    48 subcarriers in a channel
  • D.
    Faster chipping rates
  • E.
    Greater number of channels in a band
  • Answer & Explanation
  • Report
Answer : [C]
Explanation :
OFDM uses 48 subcarriers in a single 20-MHz-wide channel, allowing it to transmit data bits in parallel. DSSS uses a single 22-MHz channel with only one main carrier signal.
