  • 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-DS-CDMA-Uplink system is proposed in this paper. 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.
