Abstract
A method and apparatus for channel equalization in a multi-carrier communication system. The method may include receiving a symbol having multiple sub-carriers and reducing an error on at least one of the sub-carriers of the symbol by adding to it, one or more weighted multiples of other sub-carriers. The added weighted multiples may be from neighboring sub-carriers in the same symbol and/or from other symbols in a tone, for example, a previous or next symbol. The apparatus may include a reduced-complexity block linear equalizer.
