An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) system is effective to bandwidth because of orthogonality of subcarriers and robust to multipath fading. However, if there is a frequency offset, we lose the orthogonality of subcarriers and that results in inter-carrier interference(ICI) which increases errors in the system. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that estimates the fine frequency offset using a correlation method in OFDM systems. This scheme compares two correlation values in different frequency offsets with opposite directions. From the difference between two correlation values we can derive a fine frequency offset estimation algorithm. Its performance is verified by computer simulations.

This paper addresses the frequency offset estimation problem in the presence of the timing error for OFDM systems. When the timing error exists, the correlation value used for the frequency offset estimation could be reduced significantly due to the timing error, resulting in considerable degradation in estimation performance. In this paper, using the coherence phase bandwidth (CPB) and a threshold, a novel frequency offset estimation scheme is proposed and based on which, an efficient timing error estimation scheme is also proposed for the re-estimation of the frequency offset. The performance comparison results show that the proposed frequency offset estimation scheme is not only more robust to the timing error but also has less computational complexity, as compared with the conventional schemes. It is also demonstrated by simulation that theproposed timing error estimation scheme gives a reliable estimate of the timing error.

OFDM 전송방식에 있어서 중요한 주파수 옵셋 추정을 하는데 있어서 기존의 FFT 방법이 가지고 있는 문제점을 보완하는 알고리즘이 많이 연구되고 있다. FFT의 정수배 옵셋외에 소수배 옵셋이 생겼을때 제대로 추정해 낼 수 없는 점을 보완하는 High resolutional technical 알고리즘을 보면 MVDR, MUSIC, root MUSIC, PISARENCO 등이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 알고리즘 중에 MPM(Matrix Pencil Method)를 이용하여 FFT의 문제점을 보완하고 옵셋 추정을 시뮬레이션 해 보았다.

본 논문에서는 단상 계통연계형 컨버터의 전원 위상각을 추종함에 있어 필수적인 전압 센서의 옵셋 오차에 대한 영향을 분석하고 이를 검출 및 보상하기 위한 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 전원전압 측정에 따른 옵셋 오차는 전원 주파수의 1배 맥동을 야기하여 전원 위상각이 왜곡된다. 왜곡된 전원 위상각에 의한 좌표변환시 동기 좌표계 dq축 전류에 전원 주파수 1배의 맥동을 야기하며 이는 계통측 상전류에 직류성분과 전원 주파수 2배의 고조파 성분을 발생시키게 된다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 전원측정시 야기되는 옵셋 오차의 영향을 분석하고 이의 검출신호로 전원 위상각 제어기의 적분출력을 선정하였다. 또한 RMS(Root Mean Square) 기법을 이용하여 옵셋 성분을 검출 및 보상하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능은 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

Cyclic delay diversity (CDD) is a simple transmit diversity technique for an OFDM system using multiple transmit antennas. However, the performance of post-FFT estimation, i.e., integer frequency offset (lFO) is deteriorated by high frequency selectivity introduced by CDD. In this paper, the IFO estimation scheme is proposed for OFDM-based DRM+ system with CDD. Based on the pilot subset partitioning, the proposed IFO estimation scheme reduces the effect of performance degradation caused by frequency selectivity in OFDM systems with CDD . The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed IFO estimator is significantly improved when compared to that of the conventional IFO estimator.

This paper proposes an efficient frequency offset estimation algorithm for MB-OFDM based UWB systems. The time-frequency interleaving in MB-OFDM extends the time-interval between two transmitted OFDM symbols in the same sub-band. The extended time-interval causes not only the degradation of the system performance by reducing frequency offset estimation range, but also the increase of the hardware complexity by requiring the larger number of storing samples. The proposed estimation algorithm expands the estimation range by applying the proposed sign detection scheme. Simulation results show that the estimation range is increased above 30 ppm compared with a conventional auto-correlation based scheme. The estimation is performed on only one sub-band, and the frequency offsets of the others are calculated by relation to center frequency. This way reduced the number of the storing samples by about l/3. The frequency offset estimator with the proposed algorithm was designed into the architecture which minimizes hardware overhead by time-sharing operators and memory units, and which was synthesized to gate-level circuits using $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS technology, and the total gates were about 47K.

In this paper, a novel pilot-aided integer frequency offset estimation scheme is proposed for orthogonal Sequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based digital video broadcasting (DVB) systems. The conventional pilot-aided integer frequency offset estimation scheme proposed for OFDM-based DVB systems exploits the partial information of combinations provided by pilots. Thus, in this paper, we propose a novel integer frequency offset estimation scheme exploiting all information of pilot combinations. To compare the performance of the proposed scheme with that of the conventional scheme, we conduct a simulation in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and multipath Rayleigh channels, which shows that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional scheme in terms of the probability of integer frequency offset estimation failure.

In this paper, we investigate the design of three low-complexity joint estimation algorithms(LJEAs) for frequency offset and carrier phase. The proposed LJEAs are based on the interpolation technique of correlation values of the received signal in frequency and phase domains. With these algorithms, the estimation ranges $\Delta$f$_{d}$${\times}$T$_{s}$ . are less than 1/2N$_{s}$ , and 1/N$_{s}$ which are comparable to conventional algorithms. The Proposed LJEAs require only 2N$_{s}$ or 4N$_{s}$ complex multiplications which are very simple compared with the conventional algorithms. Nevertheless the estimation accuracies of the LJEAs are as good as those of the conventional algorithms. Suitable areas of application include joint estimation of frequency offset and carrier phase in burst-mode digital transmission such as satellite communications.
