针对传统的多径信道下零前缀正交频分复用(ZP-OFDM)系统符号盲同步方法的估计精度低的问题,提出一种ZP-OFDM系统的符号盲同步新方法.该方法基于ZP-OFDM符号中零前缀的功率出现规律性的分布特性,利用不等长双窗口能量检测的办法进行符号盲同步.仿真结果表明,在多径信道下,该符号盲同步方法不但具有良好的估计精度而且不受载波频率偏移的影响.
The traditional blind symbol synchronization scheme for zero prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ZP-OFDM) could not acquire accurate symbol synchronization estimation over multipath channels. According to this problem, a new blind symbol synchronization scheme for ZP-OFDM systems was proposed. The proposed scheme is based on zero prefix power collection in the ZP-OFDM symbols whose ZP average power regularly distributes in the two slide windows, and is applied the energy detection method of two unequal length windows to realize the blind symbol synchronization. Simulations show that the proposed symbol synchronization estimation scheme is not only of good estimation precision but also is not influenced by carrier frequency offset over muhipath channels.
