Abstract :
This paper describes an improved synchronization method for MC-CDMA (multi-carrier code division multiple access) systems. The method takes advantage of the properties of OFDM signals and spreading signals without any additional pilots or training sequences. It mainly discusses symbol timing recovery from the time domain and carrier frequency offset from the frequency domain.
