Maximum Likelihood Symbol Timing Synchronization and Carrier Synchronization using CP-based Approach for OFDM Systems

This is an excellent MATLAB simulation program for CP-based maximum likelihood symbol timing synchronization and carrier synchronization in OFDM systems. Developed through in-depth study of classical literature and extensive programming debugging, the code is refined, well-organized, and error-free. The synchronization curves obtained from this simulation perfectly match those in classical references. The implementation features efficient correlation algorithms using cyclic prefix properties and handles frequency offset estimation with maximum likelihood detection. For an OFDM system with N=1024 subcarriers as required by the literature, the program runs in approximately 2-3 minutes.
