Patent ID: 8737458

Claim:
Circuitry for use in a receiver, said circuitry comprising: a front-end circuit operable to receive an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol on a first number of physical subcarriers; a decoding circuit operable to perform decoding of said OFDM symbol using an inter-symbol correlation and/or inter-subcarrier interference (ISCI) model, said decoding resulting in determination of a sequence of a second number of symbols that most-likely corresponds to said OFDM symbol, where said second number of symbols is greater than said first number of physical subcarriers, wherein said decoding circuit is operable to generate a reconstructed signal by application of said ISCI model to a sequence of symbols corresponding to a previous OFDM symbol, and wherein a number of symbols in said sequence of symbols corresponding to said previous OFDM symbol is equal to said second number; and an equalizer circuit operable to perform per-subcarrier equalization of said physical subcarriers, wherein coefficients used for said per-subcarrier equalization are adapted based on said reconstructed signal generated using said ISCI model.
