2. Outline • Introduction • OFDM Symbol Structure • Timing and Carrier Phase Estimator • Estimation and Correction of Residual Timing Offset • Results and Conclusion

3. Introduction • OFDM is highly sensitive to synchronization error. • Two problems in the design of OFDM receiver： a. symbols timing synchronization. b. mismatch of the oscillators in the transmitter and receiver. carrier phase offset. • OFDM synchronization： a. use of pilot symbols lowers the data rate. b. use cyclic prefix loss of power. • The advantage for this paper：needs only several pilot symbols and simply computation.

4. N： number of subcarriers. X(k)：the complex–valued data symbols. (after mapping) L：2m (m is positive integer)，L<N X(1) = X(2) X(N-1) = X(N-2) = X*(1) X(N/L + 1) = X(1) X(N - (N/L + 1)) = X*(1) OFDM Symbol Structure Timing & carrier phase Residual timing offset

5. Assume timing offset d samples and carrier phase offset θ. When N is large , each subchannel can be consider as flat fading channel . Hk , k = 1,2,N-1,N-2 are approximately equal. Timing and Carrier Phase Estimator

6. After FFT,

7. Timing estimator If the amplitude of channel can be estimated. When d is small,

8. But in practice, the channel is unknown, and the noise will result in the error value of d. Adaptive algorithm Im[Y(1)Y*(2)] Stable point 怪!! Im[Y(1)Y*(2)]>0, (i+1)-th OFDM symbol is toward d=0; Otherwise, toward d=N.

9. βs can be set a large initial value accelerate the timing synchronization. βs decreases each time until βs is equal to 1 residual timing offset small. 萬一太早結束?

10. Phase offset, base on the similar thoery. Adaptive algorithm Im[Y(1)Y(N-1)] Stable point

11. βc set a large initial value for rapid convergence, then decreases each time until a fixed value, which determinate the phase accuracy.

12. The synchronization algorithm acquire to within several samples. The residual offset may cause phase rotation of every sample, results in serious bit error rate. Assume that actual delay is dact, the residual offset is The samples of OFDM symbol will rotate Estimation and Correction of Residual Timing Offset A咧?!

13. Estimate 16QAM constellation

14. The information of △di is included in the phase of r. • So we can make decision on the phase of r, then deduce the residual timing offset △di . L = 16 noise mean power Signal mean power

15. For L = 16, if △di ≦ 7, the dact can be obtained as table. The accuracy of this method is concerned with , only when We also calculate , and adopt the average phase of r and r1 to estimate the residual timing offset. 萬一平均後，相角不在table上?

16. N = 256, L = 16, 16QAM, pilot symbols are In each simulation, 125000 symbols are used. The performance of the estimators：MSE. First, consider the AWGN channel which consists of 13 independent fading taps. Time-invariant flat fading per subcarrier & OFDM symbol. Results and Conclusion
