Synchronisation techniques for dispersive time-variable channels

Reviews the results of a number of current research programmes being pursued by the Hull-Warwick Communication Research Group, designed to improve the efficiency of synchronisation over difficult i.e. dispersive time-varying, radial channels. The concepts introduced will concentrate on new synchronisation techniques based on, modulation derived, code derived, code assisted bit synchronisation and matched filter profile synchronisation. The result of trials of these techniques under simulated and real radio path conditions is given.<
