The Frequency Tracking Loop for OFDM Systems Based on Pilot Symbols and Decision Data
In coherent orthogonal frequency division multiplexing systems
the pilot symbols are often inserted into time-frequency grid to tracking the real time variation of the channel response.The frequency synchronization algorithm using these pilot symbols was further analyzed.By modifying the derivation procedures both in time domain and frequency domain
and by the proper approximation
the approximate maximum likelihood estimation result in time domain was derived.Meanwhile
a different form of likelihood function in frequency domain was derived
and the analytical estimation result was also given.The new tracking algorithm decreases the computational complexity greatly
and increases the accuracy of the frequency synchronization.
