    Abstract: An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) receiver includes detection logic, offset generation logic, tone erasure logic, and correction generation logic. The detection logic is configured to detect a signal containing a block of samples that includes a narrowband interferer from a communication channel. The offset generation logic is configured to align a frequency of the narrowband interferer to a center of a subcarrier frequency of the communication channel to produce an offset signal thereby introducing inter-carrier interference (ICI). The tone erasure logic is configured to remove the subcarrier frequency from the offset signal to produce an interferer erased offset signal. The correction generation logic is configured to remove the ICI to produce an interferer erased signal.

    Abstract: A system includes an analog front end (AFE) unit to be coupled to a power line network, and a controller coupled to the AFE unit. More specifically, the AFE unit is to receive a packet signal from the power line network wherein, based on a first gain parameter, the AFE unit is to amplify the received packet signal. The controller is configured to calculate a root-mean-square (RMS) power of the amplified packet signal. Further, the AFE unit is to calculate a second gain parameter based on the calculated RMS power of the amplified packet signal and the first gain parameter, wherein the second gain parameter is to be used to amplify the received packet signal instead of the first gain parameter.
