Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide a method for time delay estimation in a wireless communication system. A signal received, from a transmitter, is delayed due to hardware components in the receiver. A time domain representation of a computed complex channel impulse response (CIR) is generated. A first set of peaks of a time domain representation of the complex CIR is determined and a first peak, having a lowest time delay of the first set of peaks relative to the arrival time of the signal at the receiver, is identified. Following the interpolation of a region corresponding to the first peak, a second set of peaks is determined, and a more accurate estimation of the delay experienced by the signal through the receiver is determined.
