Proposta de Adaptação de uma Técnica de Sincronização de Símbolo para Aplicação em uma Metodologia de Medição de Canais PLC

This paper proposes a modification of the timing synchronization technique based on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme proposed by Schmidl & Cox to be applied within a methodology for estimating power line communication (PLC) channels. Comparative numerical results show that the modified technique shows the best performance and, differently of the technique originally proposed, it is not dependent of empirical parameters tuning.
