Abstract
A method in a receiver includes receiving from a transmitter a signal including at least first and second frames that carry same data. First and second data symbols are identified in the respective first and second frames, wherein the first symbol has a same data value as the second data symbol. A frequency offset between the transmitter and the receiver is estimated based at least on the identified first and second data symbols. A frequency of the receiver is adjusted based on the estimated frequency offset.
