Abstract

As an effective technique for combating multipath fading and for high data rate transmission over wireless channels, orthogonal frequ- ency division multiplexing (OFDM) is extensively used in wireless local area network (WLAN) systems to support high-performance bandwidth- efficient multimedia services. In this paper, a robust channel estimation scheme is proposed for the OFDM-based WLAN systems with imperfect synchronization. The frame structure information, the preamble information, the pilot information are efficiently utilized in the proposed channel estimation scheme. Simulation results are used to illustrate the performance of the proposed scheme.
