MIMO OFDM 시스템을 위한 하이브리드 심볼 옵셋 추정 알고리즘

Abstract

This paper proposes a hybrid symbol offset estimation algorithm for MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) OFDM system. As MIMO OFDM systems are multiple transmitter and receiver antenna systems, apart from SISO(Single Input Single Output) system, it is possible to use several combining techniques which are used in multiple receive antenna system. In this paper, we propose hybrid symbol offset estimation algorithms using combining techniques in multiple receive antenna systems, simulate and show the performances in MIMO system environments. The proposed equal gain combining correlation algorithm has better performance 1.8 times in searching the ideal symbol offset rather than the conventional early symbol offset algorithm in severe ISI channel.
