On the structure and performance of a novel blind source separation based carrier phase synchronization error compensator

In this paper we carry out a detailed performance analysis of a novel blind-source-separation (BSS) based DSP algorithm that tackles the carrier phase synchronization error problem. The results indicate that the mismatch can be effectively compensated during the normal operation as well as in the rapidly changing environments. Since the compensation is carried out before any modulation specific processing, the proposed method works with all standard modulation formats and lends itself to efficient real-time custom integrated hardware or software implementations.
