Abstract
In a communication system including at least one transmitter and at least one receiver, a frequency synchronization signal transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver is detected. An in-phase component of a signal received by the receiver is delayed, and the delayed in-phase component is multiplied by a quadrature component of the received signal. The steps of delaying and multiplying are repeated for a predetermined number of samples of the received signal to produce an estimated cross-correlation value. A determination is made whether the estimated cross-correlation value is at least as great as a predetermined threshold, indicating that the transmitted signal is a frequency synchronization signal.
