Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method in a receiver for frequency offset estimation. The method includes: for each of two or more pairs of symbols in a set of symbols from a transmitter: calculating a phase difference between a first symbol and a second symbol in the pair; and removing from the calculated phase difference a phase difference component due to a difference between information carried in the first symbol and information carried in the second symbol, to obtain a residual phase difference component. The method further includes: estimating a frequency offset between the receiver and the transmitter as a function of the respective residual phase difference components obtained for the two or more pairs.
