A Novel Timing Estimation Method for OFDM Systems

In this thesis, a novel training sequence is proposed for timing offset estimation in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The proposed training sequence and the derived timing offset estimator are proved to outperform traditional schemes. In timing estimation of OFDM systems, the scheme proposed by Schmidl [4,5] is perhaps the most well-known one. However, Schmidl¡¦s scheme has a plateau in timing metric, which substantially degrades system performance. In this thesis, simulation experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed timing offset estimator and the mean square error (MSE) is adopted as the performance measure. Simulation results demonstrate that the performance of the proposed scheme not only improves Schmidl¡¦s scheme, but also outperforms Minn¡¦s [9] and Park¡¦s [10] schemes.
