ABSTRACT:
An apparatus, logic, and method of performing timing and frequency estimation in a MediaFLO™ mobile multimedia multicast system comprising a receiver and a transmitter, wherein the method comprises receiving a wireless data stream comprising a MediaFLO™ mobile multimedia multicast system superframe comprising Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols; estimating a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) trigger point for each of the received OFDM symbols; estimating a fine carrier frequency offset of each OFDM symbol; determining the start of the MediaFLO™ mobile multimedia multicast system superframe by locating a Time Division Multiplexed (TDM) pilot symbol in the superframe; estimating a coarse carrier frequency offset of each of the received OFDM symbols; and synchronizing the receiver to the start of the MediaFLO™ mobile multimedia multicast system superframe and the transmitted OFDM symbols based on the fine carrier frequency offset, the TDM pilot symbol, and the coarse carrier frequency offset.
