Abstract :
Frame synchronization is an critical factor for an effective operation of OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) based communication systems. In this paper, we present and analyze an efficient frame synchronization method based on m-sequence for OFDM-based mobile multimedia communication systems. Repeated m-sequence is superimposed directly to OFDM frames in the time domain. By utilizing the autocorrelation characteristics of m-sequence, efficient frame synchronization can be achieved. And we also consider frequency offset estimation jointly. Both theoretical and simulated results are presented. The proposed technique can be applied to the OFDM-based mobile multimedia communication systems.
