We experimentally demonstrate the transmission of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals with polar codes FEC in a W-band MMW system. The BER performances of the M-QAM OFDM signal with FEC and without FEC are investigated, respectively. The experimental results show that the polar codes have a net gain of 7.9 dB compare with that of the LDPC code (7.4 dB). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration that the polar codes FEC are used in a W-band MMW system with OFDM modulation.
