In this letter, we propose an integer carrier frequency offset (IFO) estimator in the presence of symbol timing error for an ultra-wideband multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (UWB MB-OFDM) system. The proposed IFO estimator uses frequency-domain spreaded data symbol which is provided in the MB-OFDM system. To demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed IFO estimator, comparisons are made with conventional estimators via computer simulation.

In this letter, a pilot-less sampling frequency offset estimation scheme is presented for ultra-wideband orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (UWB-OFDM) systems. This scheme is based on the fact that two consecutive symbols convey the same information in the UWB-OFDM system, thus removing the need of pilot symbols. The performance of mean square error has been evaluated through simulation to verify the usefulness of the proposed scheme.

This letter presents a noise-robust sampling frequency offset (SFO) estimation scheme for OFDM-based WLAN systems. Mean square error of the proposed estimation scheme is derived and simulation results are provided to verify our analysis. The proposed SFO estimator has an improved performance over the existing schemes with a reduction of the estimation range.
