Abstract

Spectrum-overlay scenarios for wideband multi-carrier (MC) systems bring new technical challenges that must be considered during the system design. In such a scenario, the performance of the multi-carrier system is affected by the presence of possibly strong in-band interference. To improve the performance of the MC communication link in an interference corrupted environment (without increasing transmit bandwidth), the interference must be estimated and removed. In this paper, we propose a new low complexity algorithm to estimate and suppress digitally modulated interferers located in the MC spectrum. The performance of the interference suppression is evaluated in an analytical way. Further, simulations have been carried out to verify the validity of approximations in the analysis.
