Precise synchronization algorithm for CPM signal based on pilot-aided pre-coding

For the continuous phase modulation(CPM)signal synchronization problem,this paper proposes a symbol timing and frequency offset estimation algorithm based on pilot symbols.The pilot is constituted by pseudo random sequence;by means of binary pre-coding CPM,which reserves the pseudo random trait without destroying the constant envelop.The pilot is used for independence estimate of synchronization parameters such as timing,frequency offset and phase offset.Firstly,the close expression of the correlation function for the synchronous head is derived.Then by employing the single peak characteristic of the correlation function,the first and second largest sample values are searched to realize accurate estimation of timing error and phase error.Estimation of the frequency offset is achieved according to the estimated phase.Through computer simulation,anti-noise performance and estimation range are obtained of the timing and phase as well as frequency offset estimation of this algorithm.Simulation shows that the algorithm has a favorable estimation performance in the AWGN channel,the synchronization parameters in the condition of estimation range and low SNR can approximate modified Cramer-Rao bound(MCRB).
