Summary :

In this letter, an improved residual symbol timing offset (STO) estimation scheme is suggested in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based digital radio mondiale plus (DRM+) system with cyclic delay diversity (CDD). The robust residual STO estimator is derived by properly selecting the amount of cyclic delay and a pilot pattern in the presence of frequency selectivity. Via computer simulation, it is shown that the proposed STO estimation scheme is robust to the frequency selectivity of the channel, with a performance better than the conventional scheme.
