Inter-carrier interference cancellation in OFDM systems

By: Dharamveer

Meena Vinodkumar Pralia

Basic OFDM system Multi-carrier modulation Multiple frequency channels are

orthogonal to each other.

OFDM modulated signal N symbols mapped

to bins of IFFT. IFFT bins correspond

to the orthogonal sub-carriers.
