Title:
CORRECTION OF A SAMPLING FREQUENCY OFFSET IN AN ORTHOGONAL FREQUENCY DIVISION MULTIPLEXING SYSTEM BY SIDELOBE ANALYSIS OF PILOT SUBCARRIERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001047204
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
An OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) receiver (6 0) that detects and corrects a sampling frequency offset of a sampled signal. The OFDM receiver samples an incoming signal in the time domain, multiplies the sampled data by a window function (124) to widen the main lobe of each of the predetermined subcarriers' frequency domain spectrum, takes an FFT (fast Fourier transform) (126) of the sampled signal to analyze the frequency domain samples of each predetermined subcarrier, detects a difference in magnitude (128) of the frequency domain samples for each predetermined subcarrier, and generates a sampling frequency error (128, 132, 134) based on the detected difference in magnitude.
