Abstract

In this paper, a robust coarse symbol timing offset 
synchronizer design for cooperative diversity OFDM system is 
proposed. Further, a preamble format suitable for cooperative 
diversity scenario is presented. Then frame structure, 
preamble and cooperative protocol for transmitter and relay is 
elaborated in context of deployment of proposed algorithm. 
The proposed algorithm shows good probability of synch 
detection even in a Rayleigh fading channel. Furthermore, two 
low complexity versions for coarse timing metric estimation are 
also described. The perform
