APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SELECTING CORRELATION SCHEME BASED ON CARRIER FREQUENCY ERROR

摘要

Provided is a correlation scheme selecting apparatus and method that can acquire initial synchronization efficiently by calculating frequency error criterion threshold between correlation schemes and selecting a correlation scheme for each region when a correlation value is calculated for initial sync in a communication system with carrier frequency errors. The method for selecting a correlation scheme based on a carrier frequency error includes: calculating mis-detection probability values based on a normalized frequency offset for each correlation scheme; determining as a frequency-error criterion threshold a crossing point of graphs of the calculated mis-detection probability values for each correlation scheme; and selecting a correlation scheme based on the determined frequency-error criterion threshold.
