Abstract: Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is very sensitive to frequency offset caused by Doppler frequency drift or frequency drift between transmitter and receiver oscillator. This leads to a loss in the orthogonality between sub-carriers and results in inter-carrier-interference (ICI). In this paper we proposed an efficient ICI self-cancellation scheme to reduce ICI in OFDM system and its performance is compared with existing methods of self-cancellation in terms of carrier-to-interference ratio (CIR) and bit-error rate (BER). Simulation result shows that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing schemes.
