OPTIMAL TIMING AND FREQUENCY ACQUISITION FOR OFDM SYSTEMS

摘要

Systems and methods are provided for processing Time Domain Multiplexing Pilot symbols by employing matched filtering components to process delayed correlator outputs as opposed to applying a fixed threshold directly to the delayed correlator outputs. In an embodiment, a method for timing acquisition in a wireless network is provided. The method includes filtering a correlation output of a TDM pilot via an edge template and employing the correlation output to determine timing or frequency in a wireless network.
