<p>Modern multi-carrier transmission systems, using orthogonal carriers with high order QAM constellations for the transmission of multiple bits per carrier and symbol, place high demands on the synchronisation of the receiver with the transmitter. The maximum permitted deviation from exact synchronisation is usually a small fraction of a sampling interval. A reserved carrier, the pilot carrier, which is given a fixed phase, is usually used as the reference to achieve this high accuracy. The receiver sampling clock oscillator is phase-locked to the pilot carrier. It is, therefore, necessary to estimate the phase of the pilot carrier. Using a bandpass filter to recover the pilot carrier, regardless of the frame structure of the DMT signal, does not eliminate the influence of neighbouring carriers on the pilot carrier.</p> |
