question on preamble

Started by Unknown August 1, 2006
normally, why do we use differential BPSK spread by Barker sequence as
preambles?
what do we need to take into account when designing preambles?
thanks a lot

For the benefit of those who aren't long-distance mind readers, preamble to what? Jerry -- Engineering is the art of making what you want from things you can get. �����������������������������������������������������������������������

sorry for not being clear. I am referring to preamble to the data. Normally we need to use preamble to do synchronization and channel estimation job.
BPSK is 'generally' used for the pre-amble as it is more tolerant to
channel impairments.
The preamble sequence should have good auto correlation and cross
correlation properties to have higher probabity of correct detection.
One good pointer on barker sequnces is :

preamble for DS-CDMA systems with symbol length

2003.

Now I have a lot more information, but still not enough go guess. You don't tell what kind of channel. The optimum preamble depends on that. For example, baseband SCADA systems use preambles too.

I am so sorry again. This was my first post. I will learn to ask good
questions. :)

How about AWGN channel and fading channel respectively, Jerry? You have
any comment? Thanks a lot.

I'll leave that to people here with experience with the subject. (You might add the modulation type to your description.) A "FAQ" that some people here wrote and that I host may be worth your time to read. At http://users.rcn.com/jyavins/, click on "How to ask ..."

thank you for the faq.
