US Patent 12095529 Spread-OFDM receiver

A receiver receives a multicarrier signal from a wireless communication network and determines subcarrier values of the multicarrier signal. A decoder decodes the subcarrier values to produce a set of data symbols. The multicarrier signal is characterized by a set of modulated pulse waveforms, which results from a sum of the subcarriers. Each of the modulated pulse waveforms has a different time offset. The decoder employs a set of codes for decoding the baseband signal, wherein each code comprises a different linearly increasing phase. Each of the linearly increasing phases corresponds to one of the different time offsets.
