A communication network, wherein the network includes a plurality of communication elements that function as transmitters and/or receivers, in particular base stations and operating nodes being associated to at least one of the base stations, wherein the communication between the transmitters and the receivers is performed by way of generating and transmitting signals based on a multi-carrier modulation with a number of N subcarriers around a carrier frequency f, is characterized in that the communication elements are configured to perform, upon receiving a transmitted signal, a sub-sampling of the received signal, wherein only a predetermined number of the inner-most subcarriers around the carrier frequency fare employed for data reconstruction. Furthermore, a respective method for operating a communication network is described.
