Abstract
In an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (“OFDM”) system, the problem of an interferer reducing the signal-to-noise ratio of a signal can be mitigated by generating an interferer-correction signal and subtracting it from the signal to be processed. The amplitude, frequency and phase of the interferences are determined first. The frequency is estimated by averaging the squared-magnitude of multiple FFTs of the incoming signal and then locating the spectral peaks. The phase and amplitude may be estimated from this FFT outputs or through a process of correlation in the time domain. The interferer-correction signal is generated from the estimated amplitude, frequency, and phase. The correction to be subtracted from the main signal in order to reduce the effect of the interference may be generated in the time or frequency domain. The subtraction of the correction may also be implemented in the time or frequency domains.
