Abstract :
We consider the problem of mitigating narrowband interference (NBI) in conventional orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems, wherein the presence of the NBI dramatically degrades the performances of both the linear zero-forcing and minimum mean-square error equalizers. A new receiver based on successive NBI cancellation is synthesized, which is capable of assuring good NBI rejection, without requiring insertion of additional redundancy in the OFDM signal
