The proposed signaling format can significantly reduce the search space while reducing the spectral lines and eliminating inter-frame interference and multi-user inter- ference. Detailed analysis of the proposed scheme is carried out. Synchronization performance of the proposed signaling format in multipath channel is derived and supported by computer simulation. The search step which is closely associated with the delay of data modulated pulses is analyzed. Using the TH code, the proposed signaling format and synchronization scheme especially works well in moderate and low data rate systems.展开更多

In this paper, an improved residual carrier frequency offset estimation algorithm based on a priori probability aided (APPA) phase estimation is proposed. A carrier synchronization loop that combines the iterative turbo decoder and the phase estimator together is constructed, where the extrinsic information obtained from the Turbo decoder is used to aid an iterative phase estimation process. The simulation results show that the algorithm performs successfully under very low SNR conditions (for example, less than -7.4 dB) with large frequency offset and phase error and the performance of this algorithm is very close to the optimally synchronized system.展开更多
