Abstract: A method is for processing an analog signal coming from a transmission channel. The analog signal may include a useful signal modulated on a sub-set of carriers. The method may include analog-to-digital converting of the analog signal into a digital signal, and synchronization processing the digital signal. The synchronizing may include determining, in a time domain, a limited number of coefficients of a predictive filter from an autoregressive model of the digital signal, and filtering the digital signal in the time domain by a digital finite impulse response filter with coefficients based upon the limited number of coefficients to provide a filtered digital signal. The method may include detecting of an indication allowing a location in the frame structure to be identified, using the filtered digital signal and a reference signal.

Abstract: A method is for processing an analog channel signal from a transmission channel. The method may include converting of the analog channel signal to a digital channel signal, and performing a channel estimation digital processing of the digital channel signal. The channel estimation digital processing may include for at least one frame, generating transfer functions of the transmission channel, the transfer functions respectively associated with reference symbols of the frame, and averaging processing of the transfer functions to generate an average transfer function. The method may include decoding of symbols of the frame following the reference symbols using the average transfer function.

Abstract: A method is for processing a channel analog signal coming from a transmission channel. The method may include converting the channel analog signal into a channel digital signal, and detecting a state of the transmission channel based on the channel digital signal to detect whether the transmission channel is, over an interval of time, one or more of linear and time invariant and linear and cyclostationary.
