Long Term Evolution (LTE) developed by Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is expected to be the standard of the Fourth-Generation (4G) of wireless communication system. LTE supports Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) and Time Division Duplex (TDD), and both of them are based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system in downlink. OFDM systems are sensitive to timing and frequency offset. Therefore, synchronization plays an important role in OFDM systems.
In this thesis, we study synchronization problems of a LTE FDD baseband receiver. Particularly, we develop a complete procedure to deal with the synchronization problems. The basic design concept and procedure are as follows: The receiver estimates and compensates the timing and frequency offset by using the repetition property of the cyclic prefix. In the meanwhile, the receiver also detects cyclic prefix mode (or the length of the cyclic prefix). After the frequency offset has been compensated, the receiver then processes cell search. To this end, we multiply each subcarrier by the synchronization sequence provided by LTE specification and transform them into time domain. We then estimate the channel energy in time domain to detect the Cell Identity (Cell ID). Using computer simulations, we verify that the designed receiver performs well.
