The frequency offset estimation includes both the fractional frequency offset (FFO) estimation and the integral frequency offset (IFO) estimation. Firstly, the FFO was obtained by the conventional ML algorithm in time domain. After the FFO was compensated in time domain, the IFO was obtained by the proposed algorithm based on the energy of virtual carriers. This algorithm needs only simple calculations and has a large frequency offset estimation range. Furthermore, it is insensitive to symbol synchronization errors and channel changing. Finally, the IFO was compensated based on the carrier-positions offset, which can be completed through carrier-positions cyclic shifts in frequency domain. This proposed frequency synchronization scheme can decrease the system redundancy without any need of assistant data, and can be applied to the fast synchronization with the only need of one OFDM symbol. The analyses and simulations show the improved performance of the proposed frequency synchronization scheme.展开更多

However, OFDM systems are very sensitive to the phase noise, which causes the CPE （common phase error） and ICI （inter-carrier interference）, and thus degrades the system performance significantly. Based on the IEEE 802.11a standard, a simplified iterative phase noise mitigation algorithm is proposed. The proposed algorithm has very low complexity, and requires no additional pilot information. The simulation result shows that good BER performance can be achieved through several few times of iteration.展开更多
