Abstract :
We study time and frequency synchronization for 3GPP long term evolution systems. A new method to generate repetitive synchronization signals is described, and a corresponding detection algorithm taking advantage of the proposed synchronization signal structure is provided. The described synchronization scheme combines the advantages of auto- and cross-correlation based detection algorithms. The performance of our approach is evaluated and compared to other existing algorithms.
