In this letter, the performance of a state-of-the-art deep learning (DL) algorithm in [5] is analyzed and evaluated for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) receivers, in the presence of harmonic spur interference. Moreover, a novel spur cancellation receiver structure and algorithm are proposed to enhance the traditional OFDM receivers, and serve as a performance benchmark for the DL algorithm. It is found that the DL algorithm outperforms the traditional algorithm and is much more robust to spur carrier frequency offset.
