Excursion compensation in multipath communication systems with a cyclic prefix

Abstract

Methods, apparatuses, and systems that receive a communication signal. The communication signal may be split into a first communication signal and a second communication signal. The first communication signal may be zero padded. The zero padded first communication signal may be excursion compensated to generate an excursion compensated signal. The excursion compensating may be performed by fast Fourier transform logic. Zero padding may allow for efficient fast Fourier transform process by ensuring that the length of data frames processed is an integer power of two.
