Abstract—The ability to cancel an OFDM signal is impor- but it does not specify which impairments are modeled. The
tant to many wireless communication systems including Power- signal model in [9] includes signal amplitude and phase. The

We have presented and evaluated the performance of both
an OFDM window estimation method and a technique to
use that estimate to cancel OFDM signals. We presented the
window estimation method in a generalized form that does
