Description

OFDM system time offset calculation method based on cyclic prefix
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of signal processing, in particular to a cyclic prefix-based OFDM system time offset calculation method.
Background
OFDM (collectively, orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing technique, is one type of multicarrier modulation scheme. In OFDM systems, inter-symbol interference can lead to higher bit error rates, degrading system performance, and guard intervals are typically inserted in the OFDM symbols to mitigate the effects of inter-symbol interference. The guard interval may not contain any signal but this introduces inter-carrier interference, destroying orthogonality between the sub-carriers, so the guard interval is typically constituted by a cyclic extension of the signal, i.e. introducing a cyclic prefix. CP (Cyclic Prefix), i.e., cyclic Prefix, is formed by copying a signal at the tail of an OFDM symbol to the head.
Since the OFDM system is very sensitive to synchronization errors, to reduce the time synchronization errors, time offset estimation is performed based on cyclic prefixes, thereby determining the time synchronization position. In the prior art, the cyclic prefix-based time offset estimation comprises a correlation method and a difference method, and when the time offset estimation is carried out by adopting the correlation method, the time offset estimation is sensitive to frequency offset, so that a larger error is easy to occur in the time offset estimation; when the bias estimation is performed by adopting a difference method, the anti-bias performance is good, but under the condition of low signal-to-noise ratio, the bias estimation error can be increased. Therefore, a time offset calculation method for improving time synchronization accuracy under the conditions of large frequency offset and low signal to noise ratio in an OFDM system is needed.
