Abstract

To mitigate intercarrier interference (ICI), a two-path algorithm is developed for multicarrier communication systems, including orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The first path employs the regular OFDM algorithm. The second path uses the conjugate transmission of the first path. The combination of both paths forms a conjugate ICI cancellation scheme at the receiver. This conjugate cancellation (CC) scheme provides (1) a high signal to interference power ratio (SIR) in the presence of small frequency offsets (50 dB and 33 dB higher than that of the regular OFDM and linear self-cancellation algorithms [1], [2], respectively, at ΔfT = 0.1% of subcarrier frequency spacing); (2) better bit error rate (BER) performance in both additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and fading channels; (3) backward compatibility with the existing OFDM system; (4) no channel equalization is needed for reducing ICI, a simple low cost receiver without increasing system complexity. Although the two-path transmission reduces bandwidth efficiency, the disadvantage can be balanced by increasing signal alphabet sizes.
