In this paper, an equalization technique with low computational complexity is proposed for time-variant multipath channel in OFDM system. Under the assumption that channel impulse response (CIR) varies linearly within one OFDM symbol, this technique utilizes the property of Toeplitz matrix and fast Fourier transform (FFT) matrix to obtain the interchannel interference (ICI) terms in frequency domain with very low complexity, and Jacobi stationary iterative algorithm is proposed to compensate these ICI terms in manner of matrix.
