Joint Symbol Timing and Channel Estimation for OFDM Based WLANs

Overview The orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing access technique has recently been attracting considerable interest especially for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN's). This paper considers the joint estimation of the symbol timing, the channel length and the channel-impulse response. A novel estimation algorithm based on maximum-likelihood principles and the generalized Akaike information criterion is proposed. This paper provides simulation results to illustrate the performance of the proposed algorithm.

IP poised to storm the call centre

While it is true to say the vast majority of call centres still use traditional switching (aka Time Division Multiplexing or TDM) and plan to do so for the foreseeable future, IP is progressing towards a point of dominance.

Radioactive: Bluetooth - survival of the fastest

The opposing technology approaches are orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and direct sequence (DS)-UWB. Those who believe it will soon be sidelined by Wi-Fi will be surprised to hear that the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, the...

Filtering's ding-dong fight with malicious spam

Like much of the security industry, success in stopping spam ebbs and flows when each innovation from spammers is overcome by a new filtering technique from the security industry. Next to fool filters that rely on word frequency, spammers...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
