OFDM同步跟踪阶段的频偏估计算法

ＯＦＤＭ对栽频偏差是很敏感的，因此不仅在同步的捕获阶段，而且在同步的跟踪阶段，精确的频偏估计是很重要的。文献［３］提出了一种简化的相干判决反馈的迭代算法来估计同步跟踪阶段的载频偏差，对于１２８个子载波、ＱＰＳＫ调制的ＯＦＤＭ系统，在多径衰落信道下，当频偏小于子载波间隔的１５％时，频偏估计的标准方差小于１％，但是这个结果是在假设信道频率响应、定时偏差、载波相位等参数已知的条件下取得的，而当这些参数的估计存在误差时，由仿真结果可看出，频偏估计性能恶化了，因此，提出了采用差分判决反馈的频偏估计算法，虽然只能估计小于子载波间隔 ８％的频偏，但差分判决反馈算法不需要知道信道的参数，由于在同步跟踪阶段，频偏一般都较小，因此采用差分判决反馈算法可以很好地估计出同步跟踪阶段的频率偏差。

Carrier Frequency Offset Estimation for OFDM Systems with Null Subcarriers

An accurate estimation of carrier frequency offset (CFO) is a crucial task for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems but should be performed with affordable computational complexity for practicality. In this paper, the authors derive two new estimation algorithms (one for the integer part and the other for the fractional part of CFO), each of which utilizes only one OFDM block with null subcarriers but offers improved accuracy and reduced complexity. The proposed estimator for fractional CFOs operates iteratively and is insensitive to the initial CFO. The other proposed estimator for integer CFOs employs a pseudonoise binary random sequence to assist in subcarrier arrangement and accurate estimation of the integer CFO. To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed methods, numerical results are provided from computer simulation and analysis, and comparisons are made with other existing methods in the literature.

Cyclostationarity-Based Frequency Synchronization for OFDM Systems Over Doubly-Selective Fading Channels

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems are highly sensitive to carrier frequency offset (CFO), especially in doubly-selective fading environment. Cyclostationarity-based blind synchronization methods are appealing in high-data-rate applications and low signal-to-noise regions. However, the cyclostationarity has not been exploited for frequency synchronization of OFDM systems under doubly-selective fading channels. In this paper, we derive the close-form second order cyclic statistics of the received OFDM signal in presence of CFO, by modeling the doubly-selective fading channel with basis expansion model. Both transmitter-induced cyclostationarity and doubly-selective channel information are contained in the derived cyclic moments, and they are efficiently utilized for CFO estimation. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed estimator provides significant improvements on frequency synchronization performance.     

Super-Imposed Training Scheme for Timing and Frequency Synchronization in OFDM Systems

In this paper, a super-imposed scheme for timing and frequency synchronization is proposed for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The proposed architecture includes a pre-defined pseudo-noise (PN) sequence, which is added to both the OFDM symbol and the cyclic prefix (CP) in time domain. In contrast to existing synchronization schemes, the proposed architecture has the advantage of better bandwidth utilization since it does not require extra pilot symbols. The peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is also significantly decreased. Both the timing and frequency offset estimators are derived using the maximum likelihood (ML) criterion. Efficiencies of the estimators are analyzed mathematically in AWGN channels. Simulation experiments are also conducted in frequency selective fading channels. Moreover, the optimal power allocation factor of the PN sequence is determined by minimizing the bit error rate using simulation experiments

Blind Integer Carrier Frequency Offset Estimation for OFDM Systems with Constant Modulus Signaling

This paper presents a blind integer carrier frequency offset (IFO) estimator for the constant modulus (CM) signaling based OFDM systems. The key idea behind this method is a power reallocation technique which modifies the power of data in some predefined subcarriers over two consecutive OFDM symbols, thus the IFO can be estimated in the receiver via analyzing the distribution of these subcarriers. Instead of the exhaustive search, a low-complexity algorithm is proposed. The selection criterions of these predefined subcarriers are carefully designed and more than two OFDM symbols are employed to improve the robustness of this method to the multipath effect. Furthermore, this method can be applicable in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) OFDM systems with the orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC).     

Iterative Carrier Frequency Offset and Channel Estimation for Underwater Acoustic OFDM Systems

This paper presents a practical low-density paritycheck (LDPC) coded OFDM system designed for the underwater acoustic channel with its attendant sparse multipath channel and Doppler effects. The carrier frequency offset (CFO) and channel state information (CSI) are assumed unavailable to both to the transmitter and the receiver. Several different receiver structures are considered, all of which perform CFO/channel estimation, detection and decoding in an iterative manner. The convergence behavior of the iterative receivers and their asymptotic performance are evaluated using the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) chart method. OFDM receiver performance is further evaluated through simulations and field tests in shallow water.     

Blind Estimation of Carrier Frequency Offset and DC Offset for OFDM Systems

In this letter, a blind joint carrier frequency offset and DC offset (DCO) estimator for OFDM systems is proposed. By exploiting the underlying subspace of the received OFDM signals after the time-domain-average based coarse DCO cancellation, the proposed estimator can achieve excellent performance, which is demonstrated by simulations.     

Maximum-Likelihood Estimator for Coarse Carrier Frequency Offset Estimation in OFDM Systems

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.
