Abstract
A method and apparatus for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) communication system for communication in the presence of cyclostationary noise is provided. A receiver receives from a medium a channel measurement packet of a communication channel. The channel measurement packet has a measured transmission characteristic. The measured transmission characteristic of the received channel measurement packet is compared to a defined transmission characteristic to provide a comparison. A modulation coding scheme (MCS) map referenced to a phase of a cyclostationary noise period of the medium is generated based upon the comparison. The MCS map is sent to a transmitter via the medium. Signals including packets that have been mapped to subcarriers based on the MCS map are received from the medium. Subcarriers of the signals received from the medium are demapped using the MCS map referenced to the phase of the cyclostationary noise period of the medium.
