Abstract
A technique for an equal phase combining for a robust orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system under high delay spread channel is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving and synchronizing transmitted OFDM symbols having cyclic prefixes via a symbol synchronizer module, removing the cyclic prefixes from the OFDM symbols, via a cyclic prefix remover module, to form time domain symbols, converting the time domain symbols to frequency domain symbols via an FFT module, equalizing a received sub-carrier with complex conjugate of estimated channel coefficients in frequency domain at the same sub-carrier frequency via an equalizer, combining the frequency domain symbols spread over multiple sub-carriers during transmission via a combiner, and detecting phase information from the mapped combined PSK constellation symbol via a detector module.
