OFDM System is a promising transmission technique due to its spectral efficiency But, a major disadvantage of the OFDM system is its sensitivity to frequency offset and phase noise that makes intercarrier interference (ICI), which degrades the system performance severely The ICI self-cancellation method has a good performance with frequency offset or phase noise. This paper proposed the N/2 spacing data-conjugate method that works well in large frequency offset and phase noise (normalized frequency offset=0.2-0.4, phase noise standard deviation=about lodes). Also, an efficiency ICI cancellation method using pilot was proposed. Simulation results confirm that performance of the proposed scheme is better than conventional schemes.

Multi-carrier CDMA is a transmission scheme where data symbols are spread in the frequency domain with a spread code then transmitted using multiple carriers. It is robust against narrowband interference because of its long symbol duration. However, due to large sidebands of the rectangular window frequency response, subchannels spectrally overlap with neighboring subchannels, which leads to substantial intercarrier interference in a dispersive channel. In this paper, we consider a mult-carrier CDMA system where subchannel spectral containment is achiveved by M-band cosine modulated filter bank (CMFB). In CMFB based MC-CDMA, subchannel spectral containment is achieved using the filter bank of longer impulse response than that of conventional discrete Fourier transform (DFT) filter bank. We show that spectral containment feature of the CMFB based fading channel is analyzed using computer simulations.
