Abstract In order to mitigate the intercarrier
interference (ICI), a two-path algorithm is developed
for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing
(OFDM) systems. The first path is a regular OFDM
system for transmission and receiving. The second path
requires a conjugate operation of the 1st block of data to
form the 2nd block of data for transmission at the
transmitter. The received 2nd block data will be
conjugated at the receiver and then demodulated. The
demodulated results of the 1st path are combined with
that of the 2nd path with equal weights to form the final
detected data symbols. This conjugate cancellation
(CC) scheme provides (1) a high signal to ICI power
ratio in the presence of small frequency offsets (33 dB
higher than that of linear self-cancellation [1-2]
algorithms, at fT = 0.1% of subcarrier frequency
spacing); (2) backward compatibility with the existing
OFDM system; (3) significantly better BER
performance in both additive white Gaussian noise
(AWGN) and frequency selective fading channels.

The

, k = 0,1, ..., N 1 , represents the
corresponding frequency offset of the received signal at
the sampling instants, and fT is the frequency offset
to subcarrier frequency spacing ratio.

ANALYSIS
The ICI resulting from the carrier frequency offset is
analyzed by using both mathematically in discrete
domain and graphically with continuous curves in this
section.
Following the similar approach in [2],
expressions are derived for each demodulated
subcarrier at the receiver in terms of each transmitted
subcarrier and N complex weighting functions.
Without loss of generality, the noise wk in the received
signal is ignored in the following discussion.
Substituting (1) into (2) and after some manipulation, it
can be shown that

Equation (10) is similar to (6), but the sign of the
frequency offset term, fT , is changed from positive
to negative.
This weighting function of the

(IFFT (d n )) FFT (rk' )* pair, conjugate transmitter
receiver operation, is identical to the weighting function
A. The Conjugate Algorithm
At the transmitter, this algorithm requires a conjugate of (6) at fT = 0 . On the other hand, the frequency
offset fT > 0 , will result a shift to the right operation
operation on the IFFT output as defined in (7):
