Abstract :
In this paper a novel method for synchronization and cell search in 3GPP LTE downlink (DL) system has been proposed. This method performs the symbol timing and physical-layer cell identity estimation in frequency domain with less complexity, utilizing the frequency domain properties of the primary and secondary synchronization signals. The primary synchronization signals have good orthogonal and frequency domain properties, and the secondary synchronization signals have good frequency domain properties and flat spectrum.
