Claim:
An interference suppression orthogonal frequency division multiplexed system, comprising: an interference suppression orthogonal frequency division multiplexed transmitter, wherein the interference suppression orthogonal frequency division multiplexed transmitter comprises: a serial-to-parallel converter, the serial-to-parallel converter accepts an input data stream and operates on the input data stream to produce a plurality of parallel data streams; a plurality of spreaders, each spreader of the plurality of spreaders coupled to the serial-to-parallel converter, each spreader of the plurality of spreaders operates on one of the plurality of parallel data streams spreading the one of the plurality of parallel data streams by an orthogonal binary code sequence resulting in a set of parallel spread data streams separated from each other by orthogonal codes; and a plurality of serial-to-parallel buffer and encoder devices, each of the plurality of serial-to-parallel buffer and encoder devices coupled to one of the plurality of spreaders, each of the plurality of serial-to-parallel buffer and encoder devices further accepts one of the set of parallel spread data streams and operates on the one of the set of parallel spread data streams to produce a plurality of parallel sub-streams, wherein each of the plurality of parallel sub-streams contains information from the input data stream that is the same; and an interference suppression orthogonal frequency division multiplexed receiver, wherein a transmitted signal comprises a plurality of subcarriers, and further wherein each subcarrier of the plurality of subcarrier contains more than one symbol transmitted in a given frame.
