Method and apparatus for compensation of doppler induced carrier frequency offset in a digital receiver system

摘要

Methods and apparatus are provided for compensating for Doppler induced carrier frequency offset in a digital receiver. According to one aspect of the invention, a received signal is digitized and a differential detection algorithm is applied to the digitized received signal to compensate for the Doppler induced carrier frequency offset. A symbol timing recovery algorithm can also be applied to the digitized received signal to compensate for symbol timing offset.
