Abstract :
In OFDM systems, since carrier frequency offset (CFO) destroys the orthogonality among subcarriers, whose estimation/compensation is a critical problem. However, the CFO estimation suffers from DC offset (DCO) generated in low-cost direct-conversion receivers (DCRs). More seriously, in general, DCO is time-varying due to the automatic gain control. In this paper, we propose a novel CFO estimator in the presence of time-varying DCO. It is shown the residual DCO after high-pass filtering varies in a linear fashion. Based on this observation and the periodicity of the training sequence, we derive a CFO estimator independent of DCO. Simulation results show the validity of the proposed estimation method.
