A method and a downhole telemetry system using discrete multitone modulation and adaptive filtering. The downhole telemetry system includes a downhole transmitter, a cable, and a surface receiver coupled to the downhole transmitter via the cable. The surface receiver adaptively filters noise from a signal received from the downhole transmitter. The method includes receiving a time-domain signal carrying desired information at specific frequencies and adaptively filtering at least a portion of the noise from the time-domain signal. The time-domain signal includes noise. The method may also include delaying the time-domain signal by a delay time to form a delayed time-domain signal, and adaptively filtering at least a portion of the periodic noise from the time-domain signal using the delayed time-domain signal. The method may also include receiving a reference signal from each of one or more sensors located to receive an indication of a component of the noise, and adaptively filtering at least a portion of each component of the noise from the time-domain signal using at least the reference signal from one of the one or more sensors.
