Abstract

A receiver that receives a reference symbol comprising a sequence of a plurality of synchronization repetition patterns, wherein each repetition pattern contains a predetermined number of samples. The reference symbol is part of a digital signal modulated by using OFDM modulation. An end synchronization repetition pattern in the reference symbol is phase-shifted by 180°, and the phase-shifted synchronization repetition pattern is positioned after the sequence of the number of synchronization repetition patterns. The receiver detects a timing of a correlation peak at the end of said reference symbol by performing a cross-correlation of the synchronization repetition patterns.

Claims (8)

1. A receiver comprising:

circuitry configured to

receive a reference symbol comprising a sequence of a plurality of synchronization repetition patterns, wherein each repetition pattern contains a predetermined number of samples, the reference symbol is part of a digital signal modulated by using OFDM modulation, and an end synchronization repetition pattern in the reference symbol is phase-shifted by 180° in relation to other synchronization repetition patterns included in the reference symbol; and

detect a timing of a correlation peak at an end of the reference symbol by performing a cross-correlation of the plurality of synchronization repetition patterns.

2. A receiver comprising:

circuitry configured to

receive a reference symbol comprising a sequence of a plurality of synchronization repetition patterns, wherein each repetition pattern contains a predetermined number of samples, the reference symbol is part of a digital signal modulated by using OFDM modulation, an end synchronization repetition pattern in the reference symbol is phase-shifted by 180° in relation to other synchronization repetition patterns included in the reference symbol; and

perform a synchronization process by detecting a timing of an end of the reference symbol by performing a cross-correlation of the plurality of synchronization repetition patterns.
