Methods and systems are provided for adaptive guard interval (GI) combining. When a signal carrying at least one symbol that is preceded by a guard interval that comprises a portion of the symbol is received, a portion of the guard interval that is free from inter-symbol interference (ISI) may be determined, and only a part of the ISI-free portion of the guard interval may be extracted. The part of the ISI-free portion of the guard interval may be selected based on timing adjustment, relative to start of the symbol, that is applied to a function used in extracting the symbol. The extracted part of the ISI-free portion of the guard interval may then be combined with a corresponding portion of the symbol. The extracting and/or combining may be performed after a determination that a delay spread is smaller than a predetermined channel delay. |
