چکیده

A problem of a blind stochastic SNR estimator and a principle of SNR estimation combining a blind estimator and decision-aided estimator are presented. Signal and noise can be detected from the received signal by a decision depending on a decision threshold that is made available by using the second and fourth-order moments of the received signal. Subsequently, the SNR is computed from the detected signal and the detected noise. The bias of SNR estimation (based on detection errors) is removed by applying analytically bias correction.

Signal-to-Noise Ratio Estimation Algorithm for ACM in Advanced DVB-RCS Satellite Systems

This paper presents a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) estimation algorithm for advanced DVB-RCS systems using adaptive coding and modulation (ACM) in the reverse link of broadband satellite systems. Due to the absence of a repetitive pilot symbol structure, SNR estimation has to be performed using the fixed symbol preamble data. Moreover, sporadic nature of data traffic on the return link causes va...

The Two-Step Non-Data-Aided SNR Estimation in the Low SNR Region of OFDM Signals

In this paper, a novel two-step non-data-aided (NDA) signal to noise ratio (SNR) estimator is proposed to improve its accuracy in the low SNR region of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals. The two-step estimator consists of a coarse estimation followed by a refinement step. In the first step, three linear independent coarse estimations of the signal and noise power are obt...

Data-Aided and Non-Data-Aided SNR Estimators for CPM Signals in Ka-Band Satellite Communications

Adaptive coded and modulation (ACM) is an effective measure to resist rain attenuation in Ka-band satellite communications. The accuracy of the estimator for signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is one of the main factors that affect ACM performance. This paper establishes the channel model of satellite communication in Ka-band and derives and analyzes data-aided (DA) maximum likelihood (ML) and method-...

Pilot-symbol Assisted Carrier Synchronization: Cramer-rao Bound and Synchronizer Performance

This contribution considers the joint estimation of the carrier phase and the frequency offset from a noisy linearly modulated burst signal containing random data symbols (DS) as well as known pilot symbols (PS). The corresponding Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRB) is derived. This bound indicates that it is potentially more accurate to estimate carrier phase and frequency from such a ‘hybrid’ burst ...

Estimation of Oscillator Phase Noise for MPSK-based Commu- nication Systems over AWGN Channels

This work describes several methods to handle oscillator phase noise in single carrier systems operating over AWGN channels. The modulation type used is M -ary PSK (MPSK) with/without differential encoding. The oscillator phase noise is modeled as a Wiener-Lévy process. Data Aided (DA), Non-Data Aided (NDA) and Decision Directed (DD) maximum likelihood estimators are derived and a Pilot Symbol ...
