Description
The aim of this research is to study the various causes of inter cell interference and cancellation using various proposed techniques. The major cause for inter cell interference is adjacent channel interference (ACI). Adjacent-channel interference (ACI) is caused by imprecise synchronization of multiple users accessing the same Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) channel. Small frequency offsets between multiple users breaks the orthogonality of their spectra due to the small spectral shifts of the user's sin(x)/(x) spectra relative to their design locations at the zeros of the other user's sin(x)/x. The system multiple access procedure is designed to minimize these offsets but there will be a small residual offset that can only be reduced by interference cancellation techniques. This thesis will examine the proposed interference techniques.
