Yes, but how is the correction done at the receiver? You have asked many questions here, which is good, but now I am confused as to which system is which. I thought that you synchronize only by doing symbol delay estimation instead of explicitly using the Doppler information.

Hi

The doppler correction I have simulated, that does track the velocity
variation.

Just imagine a case where both TX and RX are rock steady and suddenly the
wave hits the TX or RX with gr8 force and this will cause movement for some
time.

And this adaptive loop will track it.

But as u said before, it is has something to do with loop bandwidth.

BTW, I checked abt Myer book online on amazon and it has got 5*
rating.....read ur review as well....but this book is not for
bigginers....

I will read this book and get clear idea of this timing problem. I guess I
need to study very hard and simulate all these.

Thanks a lot again.

Chintan

Bingo, this is the key insight. However, the OP said that he is not doing _Doppler_ tracking explicitly, but rather rely on the symbol and phase trackers to be able to follow the Doppler. I was hoping that the OP himself will eventually realize this ....

I've never tried this, but it should be possible to keep the bandwidth of the loop filter narrow. Radar systems use Kalman and related techniques to track the ebb and flow of target doppler, as the target manoeuvres. It should be possible to use such an approach to make the loop adjust in a focused manner, rather than just widening the loop, and letting it move around in a rather unfocused manner. Of course, if your target tracking algorithm gets fooled by tricky manoeuvres, you might regret trying this. Watch out for targets doing inverted half loops, and reversing their Doppler shift in a few seconds. :-\ Regards, Steve

Thanks again. I will have a look at this.

If you use a loop filter, the bandwidth of this filter has to be sufficiently high to handle the Doppler. And that means that the filter admits more noise. This is covered in Myer/Moeneclaey/Fechtel, page 97 ....

And the good thing is that at RX, using adaptive linear iterpolator, it locks to the value of velocity but at higher SNR. I am thinking I need to do detail study of this topic. Thanks Chintan

Are you sure this is right? The expansion and dilation apply to the entire signal, carrier and modulation. Resampling alters that relationship. ...

Hi

I just forgot to mention this: in my simulation I update the Interpolation
factor I as below:

I=I+Kp*\theta; where I(0)=1, \theta=Im{conj{I}\hat{I}} where I is training
and \hat{I} is soft estimate of symbol. and Kp=constant.

Now, If I keep Kp=1e-5; this works fine up to doppler of 1 m/s. But the
doppler that I am dealing is 2 m/s (and some acceleration effect) and I
have to keep Kp=2e-5; This makes this thing worse.


Even I get the same motivation that *if I solve this*, I will be expert
*to some extent* and I will get job :)

I guess I will have to start reading this Myer book finally. It is just
that it is written in some different style. The proakis book is just
incomplete.

Well, I guess even u must have gone thru same troubles.

thanks a lot.

Chintan
