The frame synchronization detection method of (Zero Correlation Zone, ZCZ) sequence, belongs to wireless communication technology field.
Background technique
In a communications system, it is influenced since signal will receive channel fading, noise etc., time delay is generated in transmission process,
So that receiving end cannot correctly judge the starting point of signal.In order to guarantee system performance and improve transmission quality and transmitting terminal
With the consistency of receiving end signal starting point, it is necessary to determine the arrival of frame by frame detection technique, and then pass through simultaneous techniques
Accurately to estimate the starting point of signal.
With emerging in large numbers for 802.11 equipment of IEEE, wireless local area network technology experienced unprecedented development, especially with it is how defeated
Enter multi output (Multiple Input Multiple Output, MIMO) and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (Orthogonal
