In this paper, efficient time synchronization scheme for OFDM based WLAN system and its performance simulation results are presented. Assuming AGC and packet detection is done within 7 short training symbols. This scheme consists of coarse and fine estimation, and exhibits robustness over fading and AWGN channel. The presented synchronization scheme achieves the success rate of about 96% over the SNR of 5 dB.

In this thesis, a high speed code synchronization circuit is implemented, which is applicable to frequency hopping FSK tranceiver within 68-88 MIBz band- width. synchronization Process consists of two steps, initial synchronization and tracking. A modified matched filter method using two channel passive correlators matched with short hopping frequencies, synchronization prcfix. is proposed for initial synchronization. To increase probability of initial synchronization, prefix are transmitted repeatedly. The outputs of correlators are sent to synchronization decision circuit, and code start time Is extracted by synchronizatlon decision circuit-Modified matched fitter method makes it possible to reduce complexity in hardware and obtain code acquisition rapidly.Clock recovery circuit regenerates PN code clock for tracking.

In this paper, we propose a receiver structure for frequency synchronization in OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) system which is considered as 3GPP LTE(Long Term Evolution) downlink. In general, OFDMA frequency synchronization consists of two parts: coarse synchronization and fine synchronization. We consider P-SCH (Primary-Synchronization Channel) and CP (Cyclic Prefix) of OFDMA symbol for coarse synchronization and fine synchronization, respectively. The P-SCH signal has two remarkable disadvantages that it does not have sufficiently many sub-carriers and its differential correlation characteristic is not good due to ZC (Zadoff Chu) sequence-specific property. Hence, conventional frequency synchronization algorithms cannot obtain satisfactory performance gain. In this paper, we propose a modified differential correlation algorithm to improve performance of the coarse frequency synchronization. Also, we introduce an effective PLL (Phase Locked Loop) structure to guarantee stable performance of the fine frequency synchronization. Simulation results verify that the proposed algorithm has superior performance to the conventional algorithms and the 2nd-order PLL is effective to track the fine frequency offset even in high mobility.

High-speed WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) systems operating in 5GHz band use OFDM transmission technique. OFDM technique transmits data in parallel and has many advantage compared with the serial transmission system-for example, robustness to time variance of channel. OFDM technique use the orthogonal multicarriers. The ICI(InterChannel Interference) caused by the orthogonality destruction between subcarriers. hamper the BER performance. In this paper, we propose the synchronization techniques for high-speed WLAN system designed to support user data rates up to 54Mbps at 5GHz. The proposed synchronization techniques are the reduced complexity structure having the similar performance compared with the conventional synchronization techniques.

OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) is an effective modulation technique for high speed transmission over fading channels. However, it has a high bit error rate in the receiver if there is an error on frame synchronization because of phase rotation. A coherent OFDM system has to acquire exact timing synchronization of fraction and integer sampling positions. When a sampling offset exist the performance of a receiver will be degraded severely. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that acquires the fractional sampling offset in OFDM systems. This scheme compares the channel impulse responses with the early and late sampled signals having 0.5 sample offset from the estimated sampling positions by correlation with the received and training samples. Its performance is verified by computer simulations in multipath channels.

In this paper, a synchronized stream encryption system for secure link layer communication in a radio channel is designed. Interleaving scheme which is used to enhance the transmission performance over a fading channel is applied to the encrypted information. A designed synchronous scream cipher system consists of a keystream generator, a synchronization pattern generator and a session key generator. The structure of a synchronous stream cipher system with periodic synchronization is composed of the encrypted information which consists of a synchronization pattern, an error correcting coded session key, an encrypted data in a period of synchronization. In this paper, interleaving scheme using dynamic allocation a1gorithm(DAA) is applied the encrypted information. The BER of the DAA has been slightly higher than that of the SAA(static allocation algorithm).

The paper describes a push system, a broadcasting system in the internet, which is developed for internet and intranet use. In this paper, we carried out research on the method to support the large number of users in the intranet environment. Particularly the paper analyzes the effects on the network traffic according to the number of the user connected to the push system and the frequency of the connections when push servers are distributed over the intranet. Push system described here uses two different kinds of channels, common channel and local channel. Common channel is the channel to be replicated among the push servers in the intranet. This paper shows that the method using the common channel synchronization is efficient in supporting the large number of intranet users. We introduce an algorithm to make the interconnections between channels efficiently amongpush servers distributed over the intranet.

This paper deals with distributed time and frequency synchronization algorithms using the flocking technique for OFDMA-based wireless mesh networks. We propose a time and frequency synchronization model taking into account channel propagation delays existing in wireless mesh networks, and analyze the convergence condition of the proposed synchronization algorithm. Convergence performance of the proposed synchronization algorithm is analyzed via computer simulation in terms of synchronization parameters in the time and frequency synchronization model.

A synchronization method is presented for IEEE 802.11a wireless OFDM system. First the coarse symbol synchronization is achieved by measuring the moving power average of the received envelope signal. The detection probabilities and optimum thresholds for the symbol synchronization are derived. By measuring the correlation between the short training signal and received envelope signal, fine symbol synchronization can be acquired. And the frequency synchronization is achieved using long training signal. A symbol synchronization error causes a phase rotation of the constellation. After the compensation for fading channel, the rotation due to the symbol timing error can be corrected. With this method, synchronization can be well achieved over frequency selective channels.
