In this paper, we develop a symbol/frame time and carrier frequency synchronization scheme for multi-carrier signaling in wireless mobile channels. The proposed scheme achieves simultaneous time synchronization and carrier frequency offset estimation. Simulation results show that the frequency offset of multiple sub-carrier spacings can be estimated and that performance is improved with robustness regardless of the cyclic prefix length.

Phase-generated carrier (PGC) demodulation algorithm is the main demodulation methods in Fiber-optic interferometric sensors (FOISs). The conventional PGC demodulation algorithms are influenced by the carrier phase delay between the interference signal and the carrier signal. In this paper, an automatic carrier phase delay synchronization (CPDS) algorithm based on orthogonal phase-locked technique is proposed. The proposed algorithm can calculate the carrier phase delay value. Then the carrier phase delay can be compensated by adjusting the initial phase of the fundamental carrier and the second-harmonic carrier. The simulation results demonstrate the influence of the carrier phase delay on the demodulation performance. PGC-Arctan demodulation system based on CPDS algorithm is implemented on SoC. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is able to obtain and eliminate the carrier phase delay. In comparison to the conventional demodulation algorithm, the signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SINAD) of the proposed algorithm increases 55.99dB.

In this paper, a synchronization method of OFDM signals are introduced and its performance is estimated. A proposed method can perform a frame/symbol timing, carrier frequency synchronizations. Reference symbols consist of two duplicate OFDM symbols carrying signals on every sub-carriers. Performances of synchronization under 60GHz millimeter-wave indoor channels are evaluated, which were measured with frequency-sweeping method in common office buildings. A proposed method has improved performances owing to long averaging durations of synchronization metrics in frame/symbol timing, carrier frequency synchronization procedures.

In this paper we describe the design of symbol timing and carrier synchronization algorithms for burst receiver. The demodulator consists of digital down converter, matched filter and synchronization circuits. For symbol timing recovery we use modified Gardner algorithm. And we use decision directed method for carrier phase recovery. For the sake of performance analysis, we compare simulation results with the board implemented by FPGA which is APEX20KE series chip for Alter. The performance results show it works quite well up to the condition that a frequency offset equal to 0.1% of symbol rate.

In this paper, a newsynchronization technique applied to burst-mode communication is proposed. A synchronization technique is to estimate carrier frequency and phase offsets in a noisy channel environment. A fundamental problem for estimating the parameters(carrier phase and frequency offsets) in burst-mode transmission is that the ways of pursuing estimation accuracy and transmission efficiency are always trade-off. To solve this problem, a new carrier recovery technique is proposed to improve the transmission efficiency with reliable performance especially at low S/N. In the proposed technique, the synchronization parameters are first estimated based on a data-aided feed-forward estimation scheme. Then, a phase tracker using decision-directed DPLL estimates the phase offset for the data portion of the burst data. From simulation results, it shows fast synchronization with shorter preamble maintaining reasonable BER performance at low S/N.

In digital radio broadcasting systems, long delays are incurred in service start time when tuning to a particular frequency because several synchronization steps, such as symbol timing synchronization, frame synchronization, and carrier frequency offset and sampling frequency offset compensation are necessary. Therefore, the operation of the synchronization blocks causes delays ranging from several hundred milliseconds to a few seconds until the start of the radio service after frequency tuning. Furthermore, if spectrum inversed signals are transmitted in digital radio broadcasting systems, the receivers are unable to decode them, even though most receivers can demodulate the spectral inversed signals in analog radio broadcasting systems. Accordingly, fast synchronization techniques and a method for spectral inversion detection are required in digital radio broadcasting systems that are to replace the analog radio systems. This paper presents a joint detection method of frame, integer carrier frequency offset, and spectrum inversion for DRM Plus digital broadcasting systems. The proposed scheme can detect the frame and determine whether the signal is normal or spectral inversed without any carrier frequency offset and sampling frequency offset compensation, enabling fast frame synchronization. The proposed method shows outstanding performance in environments where symbol timing offsets and sampling frequency offsets exist.

본 논문에서는 OFDMA 기반의 무선 메쉬 네트워크에서 다수의 노드 간 발생하게 되는 주파수 비동기 문제를 해결하기 위해 생체모방 알고리즘(bio-inspired algorithm)을 이용하여 인접 노드 간 지역적인 주파수 동기화를 통해 메쉬 네트워크 전체를 하나의 주파수로 수렴시켜 나가는 분산 주파수 동기화 방식을 제안한다. 메쉬 네트워크의 주파수 수렴 특성은 네트워크의 규모와 구성 노드들의 배치에 따라 서로 다르기 때문에 특정 토폴로지의 경우 주파수 수렴을 위해 많은 시간이 소요될 수 있다. 제안하는 기법은 가중치 적용을 통하여 메쉬 토폴로지 형태에 크게 의존하지 않는 빠른 주파수 동기화를 이룰 수 있음을 확인한다.

Three synchronization issues, i.e., phase, frequency, and symbol time, have to be properly controlled to achieve distributed beamforming gain. In this paper, the impacts of synchronization errors in distributed beamforming are analyzed for both single-carrier and OFDM systems. When the channel is constant over a symbol duration, the performance degradation due to phase offset is the same for both single-carrier and OFDM systems. For symbol timing offset in OFDM systems, high frequency subcarriers are more susceptible as compared to low frequency ones. Frequency offset is critical in OFDM systems since it leads to interference from the other subcarriers as well as power loss in the desired signal.
