Abstract
A communication device is provided that is capable of operating in an OFDM or communication system and that provides for cancellation of in-band spurs. The communication device identifies a bin of multiple bins associated with an output of an inverse transformer and comprising a spur and estimates one or more spur phase parameters and a spur amplitude in association with the identified bin. In one embodiment of the present invention, the one or more spur phase parameters includes a spur initial phase and a spur change rate. When the communication device receives a signal from another communication device, the communication device transforms the received signal to produce a multiple parallel output signals that are each associated with a bin of the multiple bins and cancels a spur in an output signal associated with the identified bin based on the estimated one or more spur phase parameters and spur amplitude.
