A timing estimator of an OQPSK demodulator is provided. In the timing estimator, an A/D converter converts an analog reception signal into a digital reception signal. A differential circuit section delays the digital reception signal from the A/D converter by a preset time and obtains a phase difference between a conjugate complex number signal of the delayed digital reception signal and the digital reception signal to offset a frequency error contained in the digital reception signal. A correlation operation section performs a correlation operation between a reference symbol differentiated in the same way as a differentiation of the differential circuit section and the reception signal to obtain each correlation value. A coherent detector detects a coherent point on the basis of the correlation value from the correlation operation section.

Timing estimator in OQPSK demodulator

The invention relates to a symbol detector for detecting symbols received in a receive modem of short-range wireless personal area network of a ZigBee system (IEEE 802.15.4). An OQPSK short-range wireless communication system according to the invention acquires frequency offset in a received signal using a symbol contained in a preamble of a packet of the signal, multi-delay-differentiates the signal by a plurality of predetermined delay times, and complex-conjugates the acquired frequency offset to eliminate the frequency offset. Then, the OQPSK short-range wireless communication system according to the invention correlates the received signal with a PN sequence delay-differentiated through the same process to detect the symbols corresponding to the received signal.
