ABSTRACT:
A method provides frequency and phase offset estimation in a SCDMA burst receiver (such as a DOCSIS 2.0 SCDMA burst receiver) by application of the known Least Square (LS) parameter estimation algorithm to a pre-known transmitted sequence, called preamble, in order to optimally characterize the phase and frequency offsets affecting the transmitted data. The LS parameter estimation algorithm is adapted to SCDMA burst receiver specifications by changing index calculations to fit according to SCDMA preamble locations. Improved estimation accuracy can be achieved by using weighted least squares that disregard symbols affected by impulse and burst noise. Weighted least squares can further impart more weight to last symbols to more accurately estimate contemporary impairments. The method is particularly useful for communication systems having large frequency and phase offsets as in the DOCSIS 2.0 SCDMA burst receiver.
