ABSTRACT
Polynomial cancellation coding (PCC) is a coding
method for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing
(OFDM) in which the information to be transmitted is
modulated onto weighted groups of subcarriers rather
than onto individual subcarriers. It has previously been
shown that PCC substantially reduces the sensitivity of
OFDM to carrier frequency offset. In this paper, it is
shown that PCC also reduces the intercarrier interference
(ICI) due to Doppler spread. Results are presented for a
frequency non-selective i.e. flat fading channel, subject
to classical Doppler spread. By using weighted pairs of
