Abstract

A method of estimating coarse frequency offset of received symbols based on a received frequency domain sample at a kth sub-carrier of a 53rd Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) data symbol in a jth time slot (TS) of a receiver in a China Multimedia Mobile Broadcasting (CMMB) mobile television network includes dividing a received sample, Ykj, into two sets of noise only tones and data plus noise tones Dkj, obtaining a received sample only if there is a coarse frequency offset mismatch between a transmitter and the receiver, dividing a summation of a power of the data plus noise tones by a summation of a power of the noise only tones to obtain Λkj, and estimating an integer coarse frequency offset estimate, Δ{circumflex over (f)}Ij, of the received symbols when the Λkj is a maximum.
