Low‐complexity inter‐carrier interference cancelation scheme for SC‐IFDMA system

After the standardization of SCFDMA as the uplink transmission scheme for LTE, frequency synchronization and resulting interference cancelation received considerable attention. In this paper, mathematical modeling of uplink SCFDMA system with interleaved subcarrier assignment scheme SC-IFDMA is carried out in the presence of carrier frequency offset, and the results were utilized in framing the concept of effective interference matrix, which efficiently represents the interference cancelation problem. We propose two schemes to mitigate the effects of interference and channel based on linear filtering approach, and the typical structure of effective interference and channel matrices in SC-IFDMA were utilized in formulating a low-complexity implementation model for the proposed compensation schemes. Even though many works have been reported in the field of interference cancelation of SCFDMA system, majority of them were extension of the interference compensation schemes proposed for OFDMA system, whereas schemes proposed in this paper utilize the typical characteristics of the SC-IFDMA system. The proposed schemes were simulated using MATLAB, and the performance is compared with existing schemes. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
