## Abstract

An interference cancelation receiver can cancel channel state information reference signal interference using a single fast fourier transform (FFT), thereby reducing the complexity of the receiver. The transmitter can multiplex a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) with a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) of another numerology, thereby improving a resource utilization. Thus, significant gains in link and system throughputs can be achieved via the use of the interference cancelation receiver.
