Mapping data tones onto guard tones for a multi-band ofdm system

A device is provided for wireless communication. The device is operable transmitter 200 to transmit an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed symbols. Copy of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed code, an orthogonal frequency division second set adjacent the second end of the first copied tones, an orthogonal frequency division multiplex codes of the set is adjacent to a first end of the multiplex code tones, and it has a plurality of data tones provided between the copied tones of the first and second sets. First and copy tone of the second set comprise at least a portion of the copy of the plurality of data tones. An orthogonal frequency division multiplex, the copy tons, the data tones, the pilot tones, guard tones, the tone space, the guard blank
