Summary: 
In this letter, two types of blind adaptive frequency offset estimator for multicarrier code division multiple access systems are proposed that do not need any specific training sequence. It can not only accurately estimate the frequency offset, but also improve the revision capability and convergence rate. Several computer simulations confirm the effectiveness of the blind estimate approaches.
