Abstract:
Provided is a method and apparatus for acquiring OFDM synchronization even when it fails to detect a plurality of symbols at an initial stage. In the method, a frequency is adjusted to a first frequency band and a cross correlation value between a received preamble symbol and a preset preamble symbol is calculated. When the calculated cross correlation value is larger than a predetermined reference value and is first detected, frequency hopping is performed to receive subsequent symbols and cross correlation values to the subsequent symbols are reexamined. When the reexamined cross correlation value larger than the predetermined reference value is detected, timing synchronization, frequency offset estimation, and frame detection are performed.

Abstract:
Provided is a method for adjusting Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) window positioning in a Multi Band Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Ultra-Wideband (MB-OFDM UWB) system. The method includes the steps of acquiring an initial FFT window position and a frequency hopping position, demodulating a received signal by using the initial FFT window position and the frequency hopping position acquired in the acquiring step, transmitting received data information to a Media Access Control (MAC) layer with a reception frame (RX frame) structure and judging at the MAC layer whether or not a packet error is occurred based on Frame Check Sequences (FCSs), and if no packet error is occurred, returning to the demodulating step, and if the packet error is occurred, changing a register map by using a predetermined interface line in a MAC-physical layer (MAC-PHY) interface to thereby adjust the FFT window position and the frequency hopping position, and then returning to the demodulating step.

Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for detecting a packet of a zero-padded OFDM signal, which are capable of determining if a packet exists in a reception (RX) signal by comparing a cross-correlation value of an OFDM signal delayed by a predetermined sample time, e.g., a zero-padded sample time, with a power value of the RX signal, thereby increasing a packet detection probability and preventing a false alarm. The packet detecting apparatus includes: a cross-correlation calculator for calculating a cross-correlation value of a reception signal received from the outside and delaying the calculated cross-correlation value by a predetermined sample time; a power calculator for calculating a power value of the reception signal; and a packet detector for determining if a packet exists in the reception signal by comparing the delayed cross-correlation value with the calculated power value, and detecting the corresponding packet.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for controlling power level of received signal in an ultra wide band transmission system which uses multi frequency bands, and includes a pre-gain controller (PGC) and a voltage gain amplifier (VGA). The method for controlling a power level of a received signal includes the steps of: a) at the PGCs, detecting which multi frequency band is used in a transmitter of the transmission system; b) at the PGCs, obtaining the voltage gain owing to the discrepancy in the power levels of the received signals; and c) at the PGCs, compensating for the power loss based on the voltage gain.
