Abstract:
A synchronization method used in a receiving terminal of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system is illustrated. The synchronization method includes following steps: (a) receiving an OFDM training symbol at the receiving terminal, wherein the OFDM training symbol includes many sample points; (b) calculating first function values according to the sample points by using a first function; (c) selecting D timing points from many timing points corresponding to the first function values, wherein D first function values of the D timing points are larger than a first threshold value; (d) calculating D second function values of the D timing points by using a second function; and (e) selecting a first timing point from the D timing points, and setting the first timing point as a timing synchronization point, wherein the second function value of the first timing point is a first one greater than a second threshold value.
