Embodiment Construction

[0027] Figure 1 is a graph showing the variation of the subcarrier channel transfer function H(f) perceived by the receiver as a function of frequency and time in a mobile environment. Variations in H(f) in an OFDM symbol lead to inter-carrier interference ICI appearing between the OFDM subcarriers, which is the so-called Doppler broadening of the received signal.

[0028] Figure 2 shows the desired variation of this signal over frequency, represented by the upper solid line 1. The sum of this ICI and noise is represented by a dashed line 2 . The difference between the curves is the signal-to-interference-noise ratio, SINR. However, ICI increases with vehicle speed, which makes reliable detection impossible without measures above critical speeds.

[0029] According to the present invention, it is observed that for all reasonable vehicle speeds and subcarrier frequencies, the channel transfer function H varies almost linearly as a function of time for the duration of one OFDM...

Abstract

A method of signal processing for a receiver for OFDM encoded digital signals, for counteracting inter-carrier interference (ICI) caused by Doppler broadening. The OFDM encoded digital signals are transmitted as sub-carriers in several channels, which form OFDM blocks. The method comprises estimation of a channel transfer function (H1) by a channel estimation scheme in each sub-carrier and estimation of data (a1) by a data estimation scheme from said channel transfer function (H1) and a received signal (y0). Then, a derivative (Hj') of said channel transfer function in each sub-carrier is estimated by a temporal filtering; and the inter-carrier interference (ICI) is removed from said received signal by using the estimated data (a1) and the estimated derivative (Hj' ) of the channel transfer function in order to obtain a cleaned received signal (y1).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a signal processing method of a receiver for encoding digital signals in a wireless communication system, and a corresponding signal processor. [0002] The invention also relates to a receiver for receiving the OFDM coded signal, and a mobile device comprising such a receiver. The invention also relates to a communication system comprising a mobile device. The method can be used to mitigate inter-carrier interference (ICI) eg caused by Doppler broadening eg in the terrestrial video broadcasting system DVB-T using OFDM technology. [0003] A mobile device may be, for example, a portable television, a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA) or a mobile computer such as a laptop or any combination thereof. Background technique [0004] In wireless systems for transmitting digital information, such as transmitting voice or video signals, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology is widely used. OFDM ...
