Performance Analysis on a Preamble-Based Cell Search in Synchronous OFDM Cellular Systems
Kwang Soon Kim · ITC-CSCC :International Technical Conference on Circuits Systems, Computers and Communications · 2005
Recently, a novel preamble structure, including a synchronization field (S-field) and a cell searching field (C-field), has been proposed [2]. In this paper, the overall cell search performance is analyzed in terms of the mean acquisition time. It is shown that robust cell search capability can be obtained even in bad cellular environments.
