The fequency offet i etimated by coelating a eceied equence of ample equal to half the OFDM ymbol length with the following eceied ample. The effect of Additie White Gauian Noie (AWGN) in the etimation poce i mitigated only if the numbe of ample ued in the coelation, and hence the OFDM ymbol ize i lage. Howee to be uccefully applied to Boadband Fixed Wiele Acce (BFWA) ytem, OFDM hould pefom well een with malle ymbol length. In thi pape we peent the Reidual Fequency Offet Coection Algoithm (RFOCA), which ue the CA fo initial fequency offet acquiition and follow it with a tage which educe the initial eidual fequency offet by tacking the phae of the decoded data. We how though imulation that the RFOCA achiee an eo aiance that i many ode of magnitude lowe than at the end of the acquiition tage uing the CA alone. I. INTRODUCTION Vaiou olution hae been uggeted a contende to oecome the challenge of tanmitting data to the ubcibe at high data ate demanded by futue boadband application, fo example Boadband Fixed Wiele Acce (BFWA), Digital ubcibe ine (D), Cable Modem and atellite Communication. Thi pape will adde BFWA, owing to it adantage of eae of deployment and cot. Othogonal Fequency Diiion Multiplex (OFDM) ha been the mot popula phyical laye tandad fo BFWA ytem due to it obutne and efficiency mainly becaue it ue a imple Fat Fouie Tanfom (FFT) of finite length fo modulation and demodulation. Among the tandad that hae placed thei confidence in OFDM ae HIPERAN-2 [1] and IEEE 802.11-a [2]. The othogonality of the conecutie OFDM ymbol i maintained by appending a length cyclic pefix (CP) at the tat of each ymbol []. The CP i obtained by taking the lat ample of each ymbol and conequently the total length of the tanmitted OFDM ymbol i ample. Fo each OFDM ymbol to be independent and to aoid any Inte ymbol Intefeence (II) o Inte Caie Intefeence (ICI), the length of the Channel Impule epone (CIR) hould be le than ample. Hence the ditotion caued by the CIR only affect the ample within the CP. The eceie dicad the CP and take only the lat ample of each OFDM ymbol fo demodulation by the eceie FFT. In uch a cae, the linea conolution of the tanmitted ignal with the CIR i coneted into a cicula one. Conequently, fo coheently modulated OFDM ytem the effect of the CIR can then be equalized by an aay of one-tap Fequency Domain Equalize (FEQ) following the FFT. Thi i becaue the fequency electie fading channel can be appoximated by a um of flat fading channel, poided the numbe of ubchannel i lage enough. ome- Out In Demap.

Figue 1 how the block diagam of the ytem, whee P/ and /P epeent the Paallel to eial and eial to Paallel function epectiely. Unfotunately, OFDM ha been poen to be ey enitie to fequency offet and phae noie caued by tuning ocillato inaccuacie o Dopple hift induced by the channel. The uual deployment cenaio fo a BFWA ytem employ a point to multipoint configuation. Hee, a ingle bae tation (B) tanmit data in hot but to many ubcibe unit (U) placed at the ue location. The economic feaibility of a BFWA deployment depend heaily on the cot of the U. The ue of low cot component, paticulaly the ocillato, i a majo iue ince thei accuacy and tability ae diectly elated to cot. Hence it i impeatie that if OFDM i to be ued fo BFWA tanmiion, it hould be able to opeate effectiely uing ocillato with only modeate pefomance and cot. An OFDM ytem effectiely conit of inuoidal ubca- i the actie ym- ie with fequency pacing, whee bol peiod of each ubcaie. The th ubcaie will thu be at!, whee i a efeence #" fequency. Without lo of geneality, we can aume. The modulated ubcaie oelap pectally, but ince they ae othogonal oe a ymbol duation, they can be eaily ecoeed a long a the channel doe not detoy the othogonality. An unwindowed OFDM ytem ha ectangula ymbol hape. Hence, in the fequency domain the indiidual ubchannel will hae the fom of inc function whee the fit idelobe i only ome 1 db below the main lobe of the ubcaie. In the eent of a fequency offet between the tanmitte and the eceie the ubchannel will not align. The effect of fequency offet i two fold, it will educe the ignal powe of the deied ubchannel output and alo intoduce ICI futhe inceaing the intefeence leel. The ICI powe can be ignificant een fo mall fequency offet in OFDM due to the high idelobe powe of the ubchannel. Thu the eduction of fequency offet i citical in OFDM ytem.

Thi i becaue the lat few ample of the CP, equal to the length of, ae not coupted by the CIR. Timing ynchoniation i achieed by locating the end of thi plateau, denoted by ²k¹»º}Š. ince the CP enue that thee i no Inte Block Intefeence (IBI) between OFDM ymbol, the effect of the CIR in the fit taining ymbol i cancelled if the conjugate of a ample fom the fit half i multiplied by the coeponding ample fom the econd half. Hence the phae diffeence between the two hale of the fit taining ymbol i caued by the fequency offet, ¼ 6q. It can be etimated a ½ ¾ º+ 42 ² ¹Àº}Š GÁ$. If q8â_ thee i no phae ambiguity in ¼ ½ and the fequency offet can be etimated a q5ãkäå ½ ¼2 ½ (9) In ode to eole potential ambiguity ue can be made of the econd taining ymbol, a detailed in [5]. The effect of AWGN on the patial etimation gien by equation (9) i inignificant only if, and hence the numbe of FFT point, i lage. The CA pefom well fo OFDM ytem with in exce of 1000 [5]. Fo BFWA ytem, data i tanmitted in hot but, paticulaly in the uplink. In thi ituation, it would be wateful to ue an OFDM ytem with lage. Beide lage alue of will gie ie to the additional poblem of high peak-to-aeage powe atio and will alo intoduce latency which educe potocol efficiency. Typically BFWA ytem utilie lowe alue of uch a 64 to 256 a peented in [1] and [2]. When the CA i ued fo ytem with lowe alue of, the etimateq½ i not ufficiently accuate. Thi eo eult in a eidual fequency offet that otate the eceied contellation at a educed ate, but one that i till ignificant enough to caue bit eo in coheently demodulated OFDM ytem. In thi pape we peent the Reidual Fequency Offet Coection Algoithm (RFOCA) that compliment the CA by following it with a tacking function that continuouly compenate fo the eidual fequency offet eo. Othe appoache that ae ued fo fequency offet coection include fo example the ue of null ymbol [8]. The ue of a null ymbol i not pactical in a but mode ytem a the tanmiion will alway be a null while no data i tanmitted. Othe uggetion utilie the coelation between the cyclic pefix and the lat few ample of the OFDM ymbol [9] and the elf-cancellation cheme peented in [10] and [], whee the ame data i ent in moe than one ubchannel. Both cheme ae not ey pactical when i a low alue with the latte two appoache haing the additional poblem of educing the numbe of ueful ubchannel by at leat half. Note that the RFOCA doe not utilie any pilot no null ymbol yet will be hown to effectiely eliminate the eidual offet.

Howee ou tet indicate that the etimate i not ey accuate when only one ymbol i ued, hence we update the eidual offet coection facto only afte analying a block of X, (X ]µ_ ) OFDM ymbol. IV. REIDUA FREQUENCY OFFET CORRECTION AGORITHM (RFOCA) In the popoed appoach, an initial fequency offet acquiition i made uing the CA. We popoe to etimate the eidual fequency offet, qœ by tacking the ate of phae change at the FEQ output, ½ a hown in Figue. Howee, the etimate of Œ could be eiouly affected by ubchannel with a low NR eulting d d fom pectal null in the channel epone. An etimate of i made by taking the atio of the tanmitted and decoded output of the econd taining ymbol d of the CA. Hence we only elect thoe ubchannel with aboe a cetain thehold. We call thi ubet of ubchannel ² Ø " d D;ORO ˆG. The citeia applied i to elect ubchannel with in exce of a tandad deiation aboe the mean. Fo ymbol %, the output of thee ubchannel ½ ae ent though a lice to obtain Œ, whee ²eÙK². Fo ymbol % ae found a, the phae eo between ½ '*) and Œ, namely ½ G Œ (10) The phae eo ae toed in a buffe, Û fo a block of OFDM ymbol. Note that only the elected ubchannel will be toed. Hence if the numbe of ubchannel elected in ² i then the length equied fo the buffe i only. The Maximum ikelihood (M) etimate of the eidual fequency offet qœ i calculated a the gadient of the alue toed in the buffe. Note, in thi pape we hae aumed QPK data mapping though the technique could be extended to othe contellation. Initially, qœ can be quite high and if the alue of the phae eo, µw, then it eult in decoding eo being poduced by the lice which.

CONCUION We hae peented a Reidual fequency Offet Coection Algoithm (RFOCA), that compliment the fequency acquiition poce pefomed by the chmidl and Cox Algoithm (CA). The RFOCA continuouly tack and compenate fo the eidual fequency offet that i peent afte the acquiition tage. We hae applied the RFOCA fo AWGN and BFWA channel, namely the UI-2 channel pofile, and hae hown a ignificant eduction in the eo aiance bought about by the ue of the RFOCA following the initial acquiition tage. Although the algoithm may appea to uffe fom a thehold effect it till gie a ignificant pefomance adantage at ealitic ignal to noie atio. In the futue we hope to adde the thehold effect by impoing the phae unwapping and inetigating othe citeia fo the election of the ubchannel. We alo hope to impoe the pefomance of the CA in a fame ynchoniation ole. REFERENCE [1] ETI, Boadband Radio Acce Netwok (BRAN); HIPERAN-2; Phyical aye, Apil 2000. [2] R. an Nee, G. Awate, M. M. H.
