    摘要: A frequency detector includes an error measurement unit measuring a time interval between zero-crossing points of an input signal that is modulated. An error conversion unit quantizes the measured time interval using one of modulation time intervals. An error calculation unit calculates a frequency error based upon a difference between the measured time interval and the quantized time interval. An error generation control unit controls whether to output the frequency error based upon the quantized time interval, the calculated frequency error, and a predetermined critical value.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for direct measurement of the channel state of a receiver, such as an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) receiver. The apparatus adapts a frequency selective channel using a squared Euclidean distance between a received signal value and a de-mapped value for measurement of the channel state and estimates the CSI (Channel State Information) which is also suitable for signal processing with co-channel interference. The estimated CSI may be used in a bit metric calculation of subsequent error correction decoders, such as a Viterbi decoder, to increase system SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) gain. Because receiving equipment, such as digital televisions, receive clearer DVB-T (Terrestrial Digital Video Broadcasting) signals, clearer pictures with less distortion can be displayed, for example, on the digital television.

    摘要: An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) receiver includes a n average power calculation unit and an output unit. The average power calculation unit calculates and outputs a first average power of a null symbol section of each transmitted frame output from an OFDM transmitter and calculates and outputs second average powers of sub-carriers that correspond to each null symbol section. The output unit compares the first average power and the second average powers, to perform a reciprocal transformation on difference values of the first average power and each of the second average powers based on results of the comparisons, and to store and output reciprocally transformed values as channel state information.
