Title
Frequency domain CFO compensation for FBMC systems
Abstract
The frequency-domain compensation of the deleterious effects introduced by the residual carrier frequency offset (CFO) still present on the received signal after rough time-domain compensation in a filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) receiver is considered. The compensation method depends not only on the particular FBMC modulation technique but also on the chosen receiver structure. The paper is dedicated to the case where the recently proposed frequency-despreading receiver, one of the most promising solutions, is used in the OFDM/OQAM transceiver. Specifically, this receiver exploits some samples of an extended FFT and, as shown in the paper, it can nearly perfectly compensate the CFO effects on the received signal by adapting the weights of the linear combination of the considered samples. A detailed analysis of the frequency-despreading structure and of the proposed CFO-compensation technique is presented by using as performance measure the signal-to-interference ratio and the bit-error-rate. HighlightsA simple procedure for nearly perfectly compensating the deleterious effects of the carrier-frequency offset on the filterbank multicarrier signal at the input of the frequency-despreading receiver is proposed.A complete analysis of the considered receiver, equipped with the proposed procedure, is carried out both with reference to uplink/downlink and to flat/dispersive channels.The analysis shows that the proposed approach achieves a significant performance advantage in comparison with the uncompensated structure.Unlike other strategies already proposed in the literature for the same frequency-spreading receiver and for the standard receiver, the complexity increase is always minimal.The proposed approach provides great flexibility since each user can achieve the most useful trade-off between complexity increase and performance.
