Phase difference based frequency correction channel detector for wireless communication system

摘要

A method of detecting a tone signal from complex input samples r(n) in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method comprises calculating the phase difference of the samples r(n) as a signal x(n). Next, the signal x(n) is filtered with a notch filter to generate a notched output y(n). The power of both the signal x(n) and the notched output y(n) is estimated. The ratio of the powers of the notched output y(n) and signal x(n) is calculated. The tone signal is detected if the ratio is below a predetermined threshold for a predetermined duration of time.
