Abstract: Modern wireless communications system demands higher data rate environment and reliable transmission. OFDM which is suitable for high data rate transmission at reasonable complexity in wireless channels; combined with channel coding scheme for improving reliability of system called COFDM. Coding scheme can be chosen for any system which satisfies requirements of high data rate as well as good error capability and according to complexity, suitable delay and desired coding gain for system. The aim of this paper to making literature comparison of COFDM with OFDM and study shows that COFDM outperforms than OFDM with respect to reliable transmission, fading/noisy environment, BER performance, bandwidth efficiency.
