Abstract
Methods and systems to synchronize to a remote node counting rate, symbol rate, and carrier frequency as functions of an estimated frequency offset and relationships between the remote node carrier frequency and counting rate, and between the remote node carrier frequency and symbol rate. The carrier frequency offset may be scaled in accordance with a ratio between the carrier frequency and the remote counting rate to synchronize the local counting rate with the remote counting rate, and/or scaled in accordance with a relationship between the carrier frequency and the remote symbol rate to synchronize the local receive path and/or transmit path sample rate with the remote symbol rate. The carrier frequency offset may be applied as compensation in the receive path and/or the transmit path. The remote and local nodes may correspond to a network coordinator and an existing node, respectively, in a Multimedia Over Coax (MoCA) environment.
