Abstract

In this work, we propose an iterative algorithm for the detection of transmitted symbols at the uplink of an orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) system. The algorithm allows distinct frequency-offsets (FO)s from each user that cause self- and multiple-access-interference. The proposed algorithm squeezes the interference of subcarrier k into 2D +1 nearby subcarriers by preprocessing the received signal, which yields a banded structure interference matrix. This banded structure is exploited to realize a low complexity iterative softinterference- cancellation minimum mean-squared error (SICMMSE) equalizer that can be used in Turbo equalization. Simulation results show that the bit-error-rate (BER) performance of the proposed algorithm outperforms existing detection algorithms and is very much close to the zero-FO frequencydomain-equalization (zero-FO-FDE) at low computational cost.
