Abstract

In underwater acoustic orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication system, channel variations would introduce inter-carrier interference (ICI). This gets more severe as mobile speed, carrier frequency or OFDM symbol duration increases. In this paper, we propose a kind of parallel iterative ICI cancellation algorithm to combat that problem. The proposed method extracts channel variations from the adjacent OFDM symbols, and constantly improves the estimation accuracy of ICI through iteration. Finally, simulation and trial in real lake channel verify the availability and stability of the algorithm in the underwater acoustic time varying channel. In addition, this algorithm avoids the matrix inversion, reducing the complexity of the algorithm, and has the obvious advantage in accuracy and speed.
