Abstract:
1. An OFDM demodulator for demodulating an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) digital data series, the OFDM demodulator comprising: an energy inverse dispersion means for performing energy inverse dispersion for the demodulated digital data series by means of a pseudo-random number series, the energy inverse dispersion means comprising a shift register and an exclusive disjunction logic gate; an initial value selecting means for varying an initial value of the pseudo-random number series according to an external input, wherein the initial value is supplied to the energy inverse dispersion means; and a restoring means for restoring the initial value of the pseudo-random number series transmitted to the restoring means; wherein the initial value selecting means is adapted to select the initial value of the pseudo-random number series on the basis of the initial value restored in the restoring means.
