frequency is modulated by random phase jitter [2]. The phase noise introduced results in a mismatch of frequencies between the local oscillators at the transmitter and the receiver. In addition, Doppler effects in fading channel also causes frequency offsets at the receiving carrier. As a result, the numbers of subcarriers cycles within the FFT period are not integers anymore, and the orthogonality property between subcarriers is not kept, causing ICI for an OFDM system. In contrast, in a
