Description

OFDM symbol synchronization algorithm based low-complexity implementation and synchronization updating method
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of wireless communication, in particular to a low-complexity realization and synchronization updating method based on an OFDM symbol synchronization algorithm, which is used for OFDM system non-data-assisted synchronization in wireless communication.
Background
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a special multi-carrier modulation technique, and has been widely used due to the advantages of being able to effectively resist multipath fading, high spectrum utilization, easy to implement, easy to combine with other multiple access methods, etc., it is a key technique of next generation mobile communication different from single carrier system, the OFDM system has a high requirement for synchronization technique, because the orthogonality between sub-carriers is destroyed due to the inter-symbol interference and inter-sub-carrier interference introduced by synchronization error, and the system performance is affected. Therefore, there is a need for synchronizing OFDM systems[1]
The symbol timing synchronization is to obtain a correct starting point of each OFDM symbol in order to remove a cyclic prefix added in front of each OFDM symbol in order to resist channel multipath, thereby obtaining an OFDM frequency domain signal through FFT. When symbol timing synchronization is not ideal, inter-symbol interference (ISI) and inter-carrier interference (ICI) may be generated in the obtained OFDM frequency domain signal, thereby degrading the error rate performance of the OFDM system.
The OFDM system synchronization method can be mainly divided into a data-aided method and a non-data-aided method. The data-aided method is to design a pilot sequence with a special structure, and synchronize the system at the receiving end by using the special structure of the pilot signal, such as Schmidl algorithm using a training sequence[2]. In general, the method is simple and easy to implement. The non-data-aided rule isSince the systems are synchronized by extracting information from the signals themselves, most of these methods are complex and generally have less estimation accuracy than the former. However, the non-data-aided algorithm can effectively improve the spectrum efficiency, and only the non-data-aided algorithm can be used in the non-cooperative communication.
In order to eliminate the effect of multipath on the OFDM system, a cyclic prefix is usually added before each OFDM symbol. When the maximum delay of the channel is less than the cyclic prefix length, there will be a redundant cyclic prefix in the OFDM system. Therefore, the redundant cyclic prefix can be utilized for OFDM system synchronization. Beek et al in document [3] utilizes a maximum likelihood algorithm of cyclic prefixes to perform OFDM timing synchronization and decimal frequency offset synchronization, and has the advantages of small calculated amount, low redundancy and simple algorithm implementation. The algorithm is only suitable for Gaussian channels and flat fading channels, and under frequency selective fading channels, due to the influence of ISI, the cyclic prefix is influenced, so that the performance of the algorithm is reduced. Documents [4-7] propose an improved algorithm on the basis of the algorithm, improve a timing measurement function and a search mode, increase the use range of the OFDM symbol timing algorithm based on the cyclic prefix, and improve the performance of the algorithm.
The core of the algorithm is to obtain the starting position of the OFDM symbol by operating the cyclic prefix of the OFDM system. The mainly adopted operation processing method is delay correlation operation, because the cyclic prefix of the signal is the copy of the signal of the rear part of the OFDM symbol, each OFDM symbol in the correlation result has a peak value, and the position corresponding to the peak value is the initial position of the OFDM symbol. The timing of the OFDM symbol can be achieved by searching for the maximum value of the peak.
The cyclic prefix-based OFDM symbol synchronization algorithm is widely applied to OFDM systems without frame synchronization headers and non-data assistance, and when synchronization and result updating are realized, the problems of accurate result of algorithm realization, low resource consumption, low time delay and synchronization result updating stability need to be considered.
The main operation amount of the OFDM system symbol synchronization algorithm based on the cyclic prefix is in calculating the time delay correlation function part. The method analyzes the implementation process of the delay correlation function, discloses a low-complexity implementation method based on an FPGA, and has smaller delay.
In addition, for OFDM system timing synchronization, the main purpose is to determine the starting point of each OFDM, i.e. to determine the location where the cyclic prefix is removed. The cyclic prefix is used for resisting multipath interference, and only the position for removing the cyclic prefix is ensured to be the position without intersymbol interference. However, it should be noted that although there is no intersymbol interference in the OFDM symbol from which the cyclic prefix is removed, the signal obtained by FFT is not phase-rotated at the starting position of the original symbol, and needs to be removed by inserting known data. Typically, to reduce the loss of system resources, such known data is inserted into one symbol every multiple OFDM symbols. The removed cyclic prefix position of the OFDM symbol should be the same between these known data symbols and ensure that no inter-symbol interference is introduced at the next update. Therefore, how to make the parameter estimation value obtained by the synchronization algorithm be substituted into the system and make the result be stably updated is another problem to be considered. The patent discloses a stable, effective and low-complexity implementation method for updating a symbol timing synchronization estimation value by analyzing a parameter updating process.

for the cyclic prefix length, due to the influence of multipath and noise, the position from which the cyclic prefix is removed needs to be shifted forward by a certain position from the true start time of the cyclic prefix, and the position can be shifted forward by half of the cyclic prefix length, that is, the cyclic prefix length

(ii) a Also, according to the properties of FFT, since the relative start time of each OFDM symbol with cyclic prefix removed is different in one frame of signal, the result after FFT is obtainedThe multiplied frequency components on the frequency domain signals of (a) are different; therefore, the realization of OFDM symbol synchronization needs to be carried out by combining a frame structure;

The mean value estimated value of the OFDM symbol is used as a deviation value adopted when the cyclic prefix position of the OFDM symbol is removed; when removing the cyclic prefix, the synchronization result is to be updated stably according to the position deviation estimated each time, that is, the deviation is processed to keep the position deviation within a small range, so that the phase rotation introduced into the OFDM symbol when removing the cyclic prefix can be effectively removed by inserting the known data. Assume multiple OF apartWhen a DM symbol is inserted into a known data symbol, the positions of the removed cyclic prefixes of the OFDM symbols between the known data symbols are the same, that is, the position offset value is not updated, and the position offset value between the positions is accumulated to the next known data symbol, which is needed to ensure that no inter-symbol interference is introduced into each OFDM symbol from which the cyclic prefix is removed; the position deviation value is influenced by factors such as multipath and noise

a2: at a receiving end, an OFDM system firstly carries out sampling through an analog-to-digital converter; then, the signals are converted to a baseband through orthogonal down-conversion; then, after cyclic prefix, FFT and de-mapping are carried out, information bits are obtained;
a3: after the calculation of the delay correlation function is completed according to the calculation of the information bits, the initial position of the OFDM symbol can be determined by searching the subscript of the maximum value in the OFDM symbol, and the estimation of the initial position of the OFDM symbol is completed.
Further, the method comprises the following steps of; the starting position of the OFDM symbol is obtained by the following method:
