The attractiveness of OFDM decreases with the rising of inter-carrier interference in quickly time-varying channels. Classical OFDM low-complex detection is impaired and more elaborated techniques are required to mitigate the need for full matrix equalization. We present here a fresh approach to this subject, introducing novel fast-converging iterative techniques based on preconditioning. Moreover, we interpret windowing under a new perspective in association with the Basis Expansion Modeling of the time-varying channel. We discuss the complexity of the proposed methods, showing that they are still linear to the OFDM block size. We conclude by illustrating their competitive performance by means of numerical simulations.
