Zak-OTFS: A Predictable Physical Layer for Communications and Sensing
Sandesh Rao Mattu, Nishant Mehrotra, Venkatesh Khammammetti +1
This tutorial derives the mathematical foundations of what it means for a carrier waveform to be predictable and non-selective. We focus on Zak-OTFS, where each carrier waveform is…
Over-the-Air Transmission of Zak-OTFS on mmWave Communications Testbed
Sabarinath Ramachandran, Venkatesh Khammammetti, Prasanthi Maddala +3
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication offers vast bandwidth for next-generation wireless systems but faces severe path loss, Doppler effects, and hardware impairments. Orthogonal…
Low-Complexity Equalization of Zak-OTFS in the Frequency Domain
Sandesh Rao Mattu, Nishant Mehrotra, Saif Khan Mohammed +2
4G/5G wireless standards use orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) which is robust to frequency selectivity. Equalization is possible with a single tap filter, and low-…
Zak-OTFS Based Coded Random Access for Uplink mMTC
Alessandro Mirri, Venkatesh Khammammetti, Beyza Dabak +3
This paper proposes a grant-free coded random access (CRA) scheme for uplink massive machine-type communications (mMTC), based on Zak-orthogonal time frequency space (Zak-OTFS) mod…
Low-Complexity Frequency Domain Equalization of Zak-OTFS in Doubly-Spread Channels
Saif Khan Mohammed, Sandesh Rao Mattu, Nishant Mehrotra +2
We communicate over wireless channels by first estimating and then equalizing the effective channel. In Zak-OTFS (orthogonal time frequency space) modulation the carrier waveform i…
Over-the-Air Transmission of Zak-OTFS with Spread Pilots on Sub-THz Communications Testbed
Claire Parisi, Venkatesh Khammammetti, Robert Calderbank +1
Looking towards 6G wireless systems, frequency bands like the sub-terahertz (sub-THz) band (100 GHz - 300 GHz) are gaining traction for their promises of large available swaths of…
