A system and method for estimating and tracking the frequency offset for a transmission system whose bandwidth is not insignificant with respect to the central frequency, the system transmitting a waveform including fixed carriers whose level is substantially greater than that of the carriers transporting the information, the carriers having frequencies F0 . . . FN-1, and the useful signal carrying the information. The system has N banks (100) of band-pass filters with, each bank having P filters, suitable for covering all of the values that the frequencies F0 . . . FN-1 may take after Doppler offset. A filter output is connected to a quadratic envelope detector. P adders (200) are suitable for adding the corresponding outputs of the N banks of filters. A system (300) detects the position of the two largest maxima from the P sums and validates the position of the largest maximum. A system (400) stores the positions of the two largest maxima and their “weight” and for predicting the current value. A system (500) validates/replaces the position found. A system (600) converts the positions into estimated Doppler and filters the latter through a low-pass filter.
