1. A base station for receiving signal bursts transmitted on an uplink channel of a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:

  • a demodulator configured to receive the signal bursts on the uplink channel;

    a media access controller (MAC) configured to generate for downlink transmission MAP messages that assign time slots in which subscriber stations may transmit signal bursts on the uplink channel, the MAP messages including idle slots that are assigned to no subscriber stations;

    a transmitter configured to transmit the MAP messages with the idle slots to the subscriber stations; and

    an adaptive notch filter connected to the demodulator, wherein coefficients of the adaptive notch filter are adjusted to suppress noise on the uplink channel sensed during the idle slots.
