The timing offset is one of the main error sources in estimating the frequency offset in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. Although some works have been done to mitigate the influence of the timing offset on the frequency offset estimation, most of the investigations require the knowledge of the timing offset range, which is not generally available in practical systems. In this paper, we propose a new frequency offset estimation scheme using differential combining between two successive correlation samples, which does not require the knowledge of the timing offset range, and thus, is robust to the timing offset variation. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme is not only robust to the timing offset variation, but also generally performs better than the conventional scheme on the average, in the case of the timing offset range being not known exactly.

A reduced-state sequence estimation(RSSE) for trellis-coded (TC) 8PSK/cyclic prefixed single carrier(CPSC) with minimum mean-square error-liner equalization(MMSE-LE) on frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channels is proposed. The Viterbi algorithm (VA) is used to search for the best path through the reduced-state trellis combined equalization and TCM decoding. The symbol error probability of the proposed scheme is confirmed by computer simulation.

In this paper, we introduce a new method for detecting and estimating faults on a power line using the time-frequency domain reflectometry system. The system rests upon time-frequency signal analysis and uses a chirp signal which is multiplied by Gaussian envelope. The chirp signal is used as a reference signal, and we can get the reflected signal from a fault on a wire. To detect and estimate faults, we analyze the reflected signal by Wigner time-frequency distribution function and normalized time-frequency cross correlation function. In this paper we design an optimal reference signal for power line and implement a system for estimating fault distance on a power line with the TFDR implemented by PXI equipments. This approach is verified by some experiments with HIV 2.25mm power lines.

We aim at frequency offset estimation for IEEE 802.15.4a ranging systems, where an impulse-radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) signal is exploited, By incorporating the property of the ternary code in the preamble, we derive a simplified maximum-likelihood (ML) estimation of the frequency offset. In addition, a closed form estimator for implementation is investigated. Simulation results and theoretical analysis verify our estimators in IEEE 802.15.4a IR-UWB packet-based ranging systems.

In this paper, a blind hop timing and duration estimation scheme for FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) systems based on digital frequency discriminator and wavelet transform is proposed. The proposed scheme not only requires the lower hardware complexity but also shows superior estimation performance compared to the previously proposed temporal correlation function based hop timing estimation scheme.

This paper shows the extension of SpSF (Sparse Spectrum Fitting) algorithm, which is one of covariance matrix fitting-based DOA (Direction-of-Arrival) estimation algorithms, from the time domain to the frequency domain, and presents that SpSF can be implemented in the frequency domain. The superiority of the SpSF algorithm has been demonstrated by comparing DOA estimation performance with the performance of Conventional DOA estimation algorithm in the frequency domain for sinusoidal incident signals.

A Stepped Frequency Radar(SFR) is a method that realizes high resolution range estimation by increasing the frequency of transmission pulses at regular intervals to generate a wide synthetic bandwidth. However, in the case of a moving target, accurate range estimation becomes difficult due to the range-Doppler coupling. In this paper, the process of high resolution range estimation by compensation of the range-Doppler coupling with estimated velocity of the moving target using the SFR waveform with Coherent Pulse Train(CPT) is analyzed and it was verified through simulation.

To overcome the limit of the time-domain based channel estimation caused by the ADC speed, this paper present a new BPM-UWB receiver where the channel estimations and the compensations are digitally performed in the frequency domain. We theoretically show that the channel estimation can be accomplished by exploiting the periodicity of a training sequence consisting of finite number of pulses. We also present the digital receiver structure to implement the proposed system and derive its BER performances. Through computer simulations, we show the proposed receiver can dramatically improve the BER performances due to the incorporation of the estimated channel frequency response.

In this paper it was discussed and compared measured loudspeaker impedance curve with ones reconstructed by TS parameters estimated using four kinds of parameter estimation methods developed in frequency domain. Frequency dependent parameters were introduced and derived using least square error minimization technique. For known dynamic mass TS parameter estimation methods were reviewed and also proved non-uniqueness of these parameters by simulation method. Minimum phase transformation was adopted to derive phase information from magnitude of loudspeaker electrical impedance curve measured by one channel analyzer.
