A timing estimation system and methodology are provided. In particular, a first pilot is employed in conjunction with three acquisition stages. In the first stage, an attempt is made to observe the leading edge the correlation curve associated with the first pilot symbol. In the second stage, a determination is made to confirm a leading edge was detected in the first stage by attempting to observe a trailing edge the correlation curve. Furthermore, during this second stage, a frequency loop is updated to account for frequency offset. The third stage is for observing the trailing edge the curve if it was not already observed in stage two. Upon detection receipt the first pilot, a second pilot can subsequently be employed to acquire fine symbol timing. |
