چکیده

This paper presents several post-FFT fine frame synchronization algorithms in OFDM systems. Two different approaches are followed: the first is a channelblind approach, which does not take into consideration the effect of the channel. The second is a channelparametric approach, which is a novel in that it employs simple models in order to approximate the effect of the unknown channel on a set of post-FFT frame samples. The proposed algorithms are evaluated and compared through simulations for different types of channels. It is shown that they can produce reliable estimates even for one dedicated OFDM symbol only. On the other hand, it is shown that the reliability of the estimates depends on the channel characteristics.

Using WPT as a New Method Instead of FFT for ‌Improving the Performance of OFDM Modulation

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is used in order to provide immunity against very hostile multipath channels in many modern communication systems.. The OFDM technique divides the total available frequency bandwidth into several narrow bands. In conventional OFDM, FFT algorithm is used to provide orthogonal subcarriers. Intersymbol interference (ISI) and intercarrier interferen...

Performance of Frame Synchronization Symbols for an OFDM System in Dispersive Channels

In this paper, the problem of frame synchronization in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system is considered. For an OFDM system, frame synchronization is achieved by forcing the receiver to start its FFT at the right time. One way in which this may be achieved is to precede the OFDM data with a special synchronization symbol. Two synchronization symbols are proposed to achieve...
