Improved transmission parameter signaling scheme utilizing cross-correlation properties of DFT-spread Chu sequence

In this paper, we design an improved transmission parameter signaling scheme that provides a higher quality of reception compared to the conventional P1 preamble of DVB-T2 systems. Specifically, we utilize the cross-correlation properties of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-spread Chu sequences. Simulation results show that the proposed signaling scheme has better signaling error rate (SER) performance than P1 symbol of DVB-T2 systems.
