Robust and Accurate Frequency and Timing Synchronization Using Chirp Signals

We propose a new robust and accurate synchronization procedure using a training sequence composed of chirp signals. We use a new integer frequency estimation algorithm and propose a new combination of a known fractional frequency offset estimation algorithm and timing synchronization algorithm. The training sequence is composed of one up and two down chirp symbols, also known as Newman phases. The integer frequency offset estimation algorithm uses the effect of timing and frequency offsets on the matched filter outputs of the chirp signals. Autocorrelation and reversed autocorrelation are used to acquire the timing instant and the fractional frequency offset. We present the complete timing and frequency synchronization procedure and study the output signals of the autocorrelation and reversed autocorrelation algorithms. Finally, we check the performance of the synchronization procedure via Monte Carlo simulation in several multipath channels. Our algorithms are accurate and more robust compared to previously published state-of-the art algorithms.

Low‐complexity joint detection of carrier frequency offset and sector cell index for LTE cellular system

In this paper, we propose a low‐complexity joint detection of sector cell index and integer carrier frequency offset for a long‐term evolution downlink system. In order to implement a low‐cost detection scheme, a primary synchronization signal used for joint parameter estimation is grouped into a number of subsets so that the pilots in each subset are strongly correlated. The estimation performance and the computational load of the proposed scheme are compared with those of the commonly used conventional detection scheme using a differential correlation to remove common channel effects. It is found that the proposed scheme can jointly detect the cell index and integer carrier frequency offset with higher accuracy and much lower complexity, compared with the conventional scheme.

Design,implementation, and evaluation of a field‐programmable gate array‐based wireless local area network synchronizer

Synchronization is a critical operation required by majority of wireless receivers. This paper presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of an orthogonal frequency‐division multiplexing baseband packet synchronizer deployed on a field‐programmable gate array (FPGA). Packet detection, carrier frequency offset estimation/correction, and time synchronization are all performed in the time domain by processing samples before the fast Fourier transform computation on the receiver. We propose techniques to reduce the area complexity of the arithmetic computations while maintaining the performance of existing approaches. FPGA implementation results are reported, and the design is evaluated by simulation under additive white Gaussian noise channel conditions. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Iterative detection of turbo-coded offset QPSK in the presence of frequency and clock offsets and AWGN

The key contribution of this paper is to develop transmitter and receiver algorithms in discrete-time for turbo-coded offset QPSK signals. The procedure for simulating a clock offset between the transmitter and receiver is described. Due to the use of up-sampling, matched filtering and a differential correlation approach at the receiver, the time required for detecting the start of frame (SoF) is just around 500 symbols, which is also the length of the preamble. The initial estimate of the SoF and the frequency offset, obtained using the differential correlation approach, is improved using an iterative process. A novel two-step maximum likelihood (ML) frequency offset estimation is proposed, which significantly reduces the complexity over the conventional ML estimation. The decision-directed carrier and timing recovery algorithms use simple first-order IIR filters to track the carrier phase and clock slip. The proposed synchronization and detection techniques perform effectively at an SNR per bit close to 1.5?dB, in the presence of a frequency offset as large as 30% of the symbol-rate and a clock offset of 25?ppm (parts per million). It is shown via simulations that the performance loss with respect to the bare turbo code is only about 0.5?dB, for a preamble length of 500 and a BER of 10^?7. The proposed techniques are well suited for software implementation.

System synchronization and channel estimation analysis for IEEE 802.16e OFDMA downlink system

System synchronization and channel estimation are two key problems of IEEE 802.16e Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex Access (OFDMA) downlink system. According to the standard, system synchronization is completed through the cell search procedure, which includes two steps: frame detection and cell‐ID identification. First, based on the special time‐domain (TD) and frequency‐domain (FD) structures of the preamble, we propose two novel frame detection ms: the TD algorithm and the FD algorithm. Their robustness performance is nearly the same, and the complexity of the FD algorithm is only of that of the TD algorithm. Then, an efficient cell‐ID identification algorithm is proposed, in which the necessary correlation length can be dramatically shortened even without any a priori channel knowledge. Thereby, it greatly reduces the cell search time. As for the problem of channel estimation, a cluster‐based channel estimation method is proposed. It is based on the special pilot distribution of IEEE 802.16e and utilizes the continuity of channel variations to mitigate the impact of time‐variant channel. System simulation results show that the proposed algorithms are both robust and efficient. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Block-wise frequency offset estimation scheme in MIMO-OFDM systems

This paper proposes a robust residual carrier frequency offset (CFO) tracking scheme with an extended estimation range, as well as an improved estimation performance in a multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system. An analytical expression for the mean square error (MSE) of the frequency synchronization scheme is reported, and simulation results are used to verify the theoretical analysis developed in this paper.     

Residual Synchronization Error Elimination in OFDM Baseband Receivers

It is well known that an OFDM receiver is vulnerable to synchronization errors. Despite fine estimations used in the initial acquisition, there are still residual synchronization errors. Though these errors are very small, they severely degrade the bit error rate (BER) performance. In this paper, we propose a residual error elimination scheme for the digital OFDM baseband receiver aiming to improve the overall BER performance. Three improvements on existing schemes are made: a pilot‐aided recursive algorithm for joint estimation of the residual carrier frequency and sampling time offsets; a delay‐based timing error correction technique, which smoothly adjusts the incoming data stream without resampling disturbance; and a decision‐directed channel gain update algorithm based on recursive least‐squares criterion, which offers faster convergence and smaller error than the least‐mean‐squares algorithms. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme works well in the multipath channel, and its performance is close to that of an OFDM system with perfect synchronization parameters.
