To the significant amount of pilot overhead of the interference cancelation methods in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based on offset quadrature amplitude modulation (OFDM/OQAM) system, we proposed an improved interference cancelation method (ICM) for OFDM/OQAM system in this paper. In this method, we use the auxiliary pilot (AP) to eliminate the influence of the intersymbol interference on channel estimation, which can reduce the pilot overhead of OFDM/OQAM system significantly. At the same time, to improve the channel estimation performance, we analyze the source of the intrinsic interference of system and its distribution in time and frequency domain, then, we reset the interference cancelation range of AP, which can cancel more intrinsic interference for OFDM/OQAM system. According to the results of performance analysis, compared to the conventional interference cancelation methods, the proposed method performs better in terms of energy efficiency and spectral efficiency. Also, the simulation results of the proposed method show that the proposed method can outperform traditional interference cancelation methods in channel estimation performance.
