In OFDMA-based digital duplexing (DD) systems, the effective channel impulse response (CIR) is lengthened due to time difference of arrivals (TDoAs) from adjacent subscriber stations (SSs). In this letter, a time-domain shortening filter (TSF) is proposed to shorten the effective CIR by maximizing signal-to-interference ratio for pulse shortening (SIRPS). A time-domain window (TW) is also proposed to reduce the effect of inter-carrier interference (ICI) due to CFO in OFDMA-based DD systems, by maximizing the signal-to-interference and noise ratio for window (SINRW).
