摘要

The similarity of the mathematical description of random-field spin systems to the orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme for wireless communication is exploited in an intercarrier interference (ICI) canceller used in the demodulation of OFDM. The translational symmetry in the Fourier domain generically concentrates the major contribution of ICI from each subcarrier in the subcarrier%26apos;s neighbourhood. This observation in conjunction with the mean-field approach leads to the development of an ICI canceller whose necessary cost of computation scales linearly with respect to the number of subcarriers. It is also shown that the dynamics of the mean-field canceller are well captured by a discrete map of a single macroscopic variable, without taking the spatial and time correlations of estimated variables into account.
