Abstract
An IS-OFDM system for point-to-point wireless communications that suppresses narrow-band interference comprises an IS-OFDM transmitter and an IS-OFDM receiver, wherein a transmitted signal comprises a plurality of subcarriers, and further wherein each subcarrier contains more than one and potentially all symbols transmitted in a given frame. The IS-OFDM transmitted signal is at a data rate that is equal to the data rate of the input data stream via the use of P/S converters.

An Interference Suppression Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (IS-OFDM) system, comprising:
- an IS-OFDM transmitter, wherein said IS-OFDM transmitter comprises:
- a serial-to-parallel (S/P) converter, said S/P converter accepts an input data stream and operates on said input data stream to produce a plurality of parallel data streams, wherein said input data stream comprises a plurality of data points, wherein each one of said plurality of data points comprises a transmit power;
- a plurality of spreaders, each spreader of said plurality of spreaders coupled to said S/P converter, each spreader of said plurality of spreaders operates on one of said plurality of parallel data streams spreading said one of said 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 S/P buffer and encoder devices, each of said plurality of S/P buffer and encoder devices coupled to one of said plurality of spreaders, each of said plurality of S/P buffer and encoder devices further accepts one of said set of parallel spread data streams and operates on said one of said set of parallel spread data streams to produce a plurality of parallel sub-streams, wherein each of said plurality of parallel sub-streams contains information from said input data stream that is the same, and wherein said transmit power of each one of said plurality of data points is distributed into more than one of said plurality of parallel sub-streams;
- and
- an IS-OFDM receiver, wherein a transmitted signal comprises a plurality of subcarriers, and further wherein each subcarrier of said plurality of subcarrier contains more than one and potentially all symbols transmitted in a given frame.
