Non-data-aided carrier-frequency offset estimation for pulse-shaping OFDM/OQAM systems 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In this paper we consider the problem of blind carrier-frequency offset (CFO) estimation for pulse-shaping orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems based on offset quadrature amplitude modulation (OQAM). In particular, under the assumption of low signal-to-noise ratio, three maximum-likelihood (ML) CFO estimators for non-dispersive channels are derived. Due to their significant computational complexity a more feasible closed-form CFO synchronization algorithm is considered. The performance of the derived blind estimators is assessed via computer simulations and compared with that of a blind CFO estimator previously proposed in the literature, exploiting the second-order cyclostationarity property of the OFDM/OQAM signal. 相似文献

Two modified nonlinear least square (NLS) estimators for carrier frequency offset (CFO) in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems are proposed. In the modified NLS CFO estimators, slot elements in an OFDM block symbol are weighted in terms of their received energies. Simulation results show that the proposed new estimators outperform the original one especially in a low signal-to-noise ratio range. 相似文献

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems are more sensitive to carrier frequency offset (CFO) compared to
the conventional single carrier systems. CFO destroys the orthogonality among subcarriers, resulting in inter-carrier interference
(ICI) and degrading system performance. To mitigate the effect of the CFO, it has to be estimated and compensated before the
demodulation. The CFO can be divided into an integer part and a fractional part. In this paper, we investigate a maximum-likelihood
estimator (MLE) for estimating the integer part of the CFO in OFDM systems, which requires only one OFDM block as the pilot
symbols. To reduce the computational complexity of the MLE and improve the bandwidth efficiency, a suboptimum estimator (Sub
MLE) is studied. Based on the hypothesis testing method, a threshold Sub MLE (T-Sub MLE) is proposed to further reduce the
computational complexity. The performance analysis of the proposed T-Sub MLE is obtained and the analytical results match
the simulation results well. Numerical results show that the proposed estimators are effective and reliable in both additive
white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and frequency-selective fading channels in OFDM systems.

This paper deals with the problem of joint symbol timing and carrier-frequency offset (CFO) estimation in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with noncircular (NC) transmissions. Maximum-likelihood (ML) estimators of symbol timing and CFO have been derived under the assumption of nondispersive channel and by modeling the OFDM signal vector as a circular complex Gaussian random vector (C-CGRV). The Gaussian assumption is reasonable when the number of subcarriers is sufficiently large. However, if the data symbols belong to an NC constellation, the received signal vector becomes an NC-CGRV, i.e., a CGRV whose relation matrix (defined as the statistical expectation of the product between the vector and its transpose) is not identically zero. Hence, in this case, previously mentioned estimators, termed MLC estimators, are not ML estimators. In this paper, by exploiting the joint probability density function for NC-CGRVs, ML estimators are derived. Moreover, since their implementation complexity is high, feasible computational algorithms are considered. Finally, refined symbol timing estimators, apt to counteract the degrading effects of intersymbol interference (ISI) in dispersive channels, are suggested. The performance of the derived estimators is assessed via computer simulation and compared with that of MLC estimators and that of modified MLC (MMLC) estimators exploiting only ISI-free samples of the cyclic prefix. 相似文献

Carrier frequency synchronization is critical to the quality of signal reception in OFDM systems. This paper presents an approximate maximum-likelihood (ML) carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation scheme based on time-domain channel estimates which retain the CFO information in the form of phase rotation. The proposed ML CFO estimate is investigated under static as well as time-varying fading channels. Statistical properties of the estimator are examined and Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) is derived. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulations show that the proposed CFO estimator renders excellent performance with lower computational complexity. The proposed CFO estimate also has an advantage of allowing for more flexible pilot patterns 相似文献

It is well known that orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is sensitive to carrier frequency offset (CFO) and suffers from a high peak‐to‐average ratio. In addition, the performance of OFDM is severely affected by strong co‐channel interference and strong narrowband interference. To mitigate the limitations of OFDM, we propose a new multi‐carrier transceiver based on frequency‐shift filter. A frequency‐shift filter can separate spectrally overlapping sub‐carrier signals by exploiting the spectral correlation inherent in the cyclostationary modulated signals. To increase spectral efficiency, we increase the percentage of spectral overlap between two adjacent sub‐channels. We derive an upper bound and a lower bound on the bit error rate performance of the proposed multi‐carrier transceiver in additive white Gaussian noise channel and frequency‐nonselective Rayleigh fading channel, respectively. Compared with OFDM, our simulation results show that the proposed multi‐carrier transceiver is much less sensitive to CFO and has a lower peak‐to‐average ratio; moreover, without any additional interference suppression technique, the proposed transceiver has the advantage of being able to mitigate strong co‐channel interference with CFO from the intended multi‐carrier signal and mitigate strong narrowband interference in additive white Gaussian noise channel and in Rayleigh fading channel in which a large CFO between the transmitted signal and the received signal often occurs.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with direct-conversion receiver (DCR) are vulnerable to carrier frequency offset (CFO), dc offset (DCO) and in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) imbalance. In this paper, we propose blind estimator for joint estimation of CFO, DCO and I/Q imbalance in OFDM systems with DCR. Simulation results show that performance of proposed estimator approaches Cramér-Rao lower bound (CRLB) asymptotically, which demonstrates its effectiveness. 相似文献

Most of the blind Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO) estimators necessitate large number of samples to ensure the estimation accuracy. However, the number of samples can not be selected too large because of the carrier offset drift. In this letter, a new closed form algorithm for blind OFDM CFO estimation in frequency-selective channel is proposed. This method utilizes the propagator obtained from data matrix and the diagonal loading technique, thus it has better performance even only using one or two OFDM blocks. Furthermore, the range of the CFO estimation which can be handled is overall transmission spectral. Simulation results confirm its effectiveness. 相似文献

Particle filter with ant colony optimization for frequency offset estimation in OFDM systems with unknown noise distribution 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is sensitive to carrier frequency offset (CFO) that causes inter-carrier interference (ICI). In this paper, a particle filter (PF) method augmented with ant colony optimization (ACO) is developed to estimate the CFO. The ACO for continuous domains is incorporated into PF to optimize the sampling process. Unlike the standard PF, resampling is not required in the method. Moreover, it does not require the noise distribution. Simulation results show that the proposed method is effective when estimating the CFO and can effectively combat the effect of ICI in OFDM systems. 相似文献

A recursive maximum likelihood carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimator is proposed in this work, where redundancy information contained in the cyclic prefix of multiple consecutive orthogonal frequency‐division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols is exploited in an efficient recursive fashion. Because the estimator is based on multiple OFDM symbols, the time‐varying CFO must be considered. We investigate the effect of time‐varying CFO on the performance of the estimator and the trade‐off between fast tracking ability and low estimation variance. We show that, without channel noise, the mean squared error (MSE) of estimation due to CFO estimation variation increases approximately quadratically with n, where n is the number of OFDM symbols used for CFO estimation (estimation window size), whereas the MSE due to channel noise decreases proportionally to 1/n (approximately) if the CFO is constant. A closed‐form expression of the optimal estimation window size (approximately) is derived by minimizing the MSE caused by both time‐varying CFO and channel noise. For wireless systems with time‐varying rate of change for CFO, the proposed estimator can be implemented adaptively. In addition, typical optimal estimation window sizes for WiMAX, DVB‐SH and MediaFLO systems are evaluated as an example. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

This article presents techniques for improved estimation of symbol timing offset (STO) and carrier frequency offset (CFO) for dual-polarization (DP) orthogonal frequency division multiplex (DP-OFDM) systems. Recently, quaternion multiple-input multiple-output OFDM has been proposed for high spectral efficiency communication systems, which can flexibly explore different types of diversities such as space, time, frequency, and polarization. This article focuses on synchronization techniques for DP-OFDM systems using a cyclic prefix, where the application of quaternion algebra leads to new improved estimators. Simulations performed for DP system methods show faster reduction of STO estimator variance with a double-slope line in the log-variance line versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) plot compared with single-polarization (SP) counterparts, and simulations for CFO estimates show a 3-dB gain of DP over SP estimates for same SNR values defined, respectively, for quaternion-valued or complex-valued signals. Cramer–Rao bounds for STO and CFO are derived for the synchronization methods, correlating with the observed gains of DP over SP OFDM systems. 相似文献

In this paper, we derive closed form bit error rate (BER) expressions for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with residual carrier frequency offset (CFO). Most of the published work treats CFO as a nonrandom parameter. But in our study we consider it as a random parameter. The BER performance of binary phase shift keying (BPSK) OFDM system is analyzed in the cases of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), frequency-flat and frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channels.We further discuss how these expressions can be related to systems with practical estimators. The simulation results are provided to verify the accuracy of these error rate expressions. 相似文献

Estimation of carrier frequency offset (CFO) is an important issue in the design of a wireless receiver that employs orthogonal
frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) techniques. In this paper, using the ten short training symbols specified in the signal
format of the IEEE 802.11a WLAN, we investigate the performance of a coarse CFO estimation scheme for OFDM signals with multiple
preamble symbols. This scheme, which we call DC-ML, employs the maximum likelihood (ML) method with delayed correlation (DC).
For AWGN channels under moderate signal to noise ratio (SNR) conditions, we develop an analysis to evaluate the variance of
estimation error (VEER). The analysis is corroborated in light of simulations, and compared with the formulated Cramer-Rao
lower bound (CRLB). VEER of the DC-ML in a multipath environment is studied via simulations. Numerical results show that a
certain parameter combination can result in minimum VEER. Simulation results justify that the probability of estimation error
(PEER) approximates Gaussian distribution in both AWGN and multipath scenarios. We also present a Two-Branch DC-ML (TBDC-ML)
scheme, which comprises two correlation branches of DC-ML, and an associative ambiguity resolution algorithm. Numerical examples
reveal that TBDC-ML outperforms DC-ML in both VEER and PEER. Assuming that the estimation error resulting from the two branches
is jointly Gaussian, we derive the joint probability density function (pdf) and validate it via simulations. 相似文献

Relying on a kurtosis-type criterion, we develop a low-complexity blind carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimator for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. We demonstrate analytically how identifiability and performance of this blind CFO estimator depend on the channel's frequency selectivity and the input distribution. We show that this approach can be applied to blind CFO estimation in multi-input multi-output and multiuser OFDM systems. The issues of channel s, multiuser interference, and effects of multiple antennas are addressed analytically, and tested via simulations. 相似文献

As an alternative to the traditional pilot‐aided orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), the time‐domain pseudonoise (PN)‐padded OFDM provides a higher spectral efficiency. However, the carrier frequency offset (CFO) attenuates peaks of the conventional PN correlation output, which limits the CFO estimation range of the OFDM synchronizer. An improved correlation is proposed in this letter to remove the CFO‐induced amplitude attenuation of correlation peaks. For a synchronizer adopting the designed correlator, a larger range of CFO acquisition is obtained through using wider correlation windows with a smaller interval between them. The proposed method of CFO acquisition is verified in a digital terrestrial multimedia broadcast receiver, in which the synchronizer is able to acquire CFOs up to ±320 kHz in the DVB‐T F1 channel. Furthermore, the acquisition range can be expanded in more favorable channels. 相似文献
