Abstract

A new method for frequency synchronization based upon Zero-Intermediate Frequency (Zero-IF) receiver and characteristics of the received signal’s power spectrum for MC-DSCDMA-Uplink system is proposed in this paper. In addition to this, employing Zero Correlation Zone (ZCZ) sequences, designed specifically for quasisynchronous uplink transmissions, is proposed to exploit frequency and temporal diversity in frequency-selective block-fading channels. The variance for Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO) estimators of MC-DS-CDMA Uplink is compared with that of an OFDM system to estimate the CFO. Our study and results show that the MC-DS-CDMA system is outperforming the OFDM method.
