Abstract: A transmitting apparatus transmits signals in a digital telecommunication system and a synchronising method is used for synchronizing such signals at a receiving apparatus. The transmitting apparatus prepares for transmission of a reference symbol having at least two repetition patterns, whereby one of the at least two repetition patterns is phase-shifted in relation to the other repetition pattern, and a synchronizing mechanism in the digital telecommunication system uses the reference symbol once received for synchronization. The synchronizing mechanism uses a cross-correlation mechanism to cross-correlate at least one of the two repetition patterns within a correlation window having a predetermined length.

Abstract: A receiver that receives a reference symbol comprising a sequence of a plurality of synchronization repetition patterns, wherein each repetition pattern contains a predetermined number of samples. The reference symbol is part of a digital signal modulated by using OFDM modulation. An end synchronization repetition pattern in the reference symbol is phase-shifted by 180°, and the phase-shifted synchronization repetition pattern is positioned after the sequence of the number of synchronization repetition patterns. The receiver detects a timing of a correlation peak at the end of said reference symbol by performing a cross-correlation of the synchronization repetition patterns.

Abstract: The present invention proposes a method for generating synchronization bursts for OFDM transmission systems. The symbols of a predefined symbol sequence are mapped according to a predefined mapping scheme on subcarriers of the OFDM systems by a mapping unit (2), wherein the symbols of the predefined symbol sequence represent subcarriers of the OFDM system with nonzero amplitudes.

The mapping (2) of the symbols of the predefined symbol sequence is set such that the resulting time domain signal of the synchronization burst represents a periodic nature. According to the invention the predefined symbol sequence is set such that the envelope fluctuation of the time domain signal of the synchronization burst is minimized. Therefore advantageous symbol sequences reducing said the envelope fluctuation of the time domain signal are proposed.
