Carrier frequency offset estimation for OFDM systems |
August 4, 2009 |
| A system comprises a receiver module that receives a signal that is modulated using coherent orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation. A signal to noise ratio (SNR) module communicates with the receiver module and generates a SNR estimate based on the OFDM signal. |
