Frame synchronization confirmation technique using pilot pattern in W-CDMA system

This paper proposes a new frame synchronization confirmation technique using a new pilot pattern in a W-CDMA (wideband code division multiple access) system. By applying the proposed technique for autocorrelation functions of the pilot patterns in a W-CDMA system, we can obtain a side-lobe cancellation effect except middle shift. It is also shown that the pilot pattern in a W-CDMA system is appropriate for frame synchronization confirmation through computer simulation.
