Abstract: A system for determining a time delay between an in-phase signal component and a quadrature-phase signal component includes an in-phase signal start time determination module coupled to an in-phase delay module, the in-phase signal start time determination module and the in-phase delay module configured to receive an in-phase signal component of a received signal. The in-phase signal start time determination module is configured to receive a reference signal. The system also includes a quadrature-phase signal start time determination module coupled to a quadrature-phase delay module, the quadrature-phase signal start time determination module and the quadrature-phase delay module configured to receive a quadrature-phase signal component of a received signal.

Abstract: An apparatus for archiving robust channel estimation in a communication system includes a training sequence generator to generate a training sequence. A formatter inserts the training sequence to a frame. A transmitting module is employed to transmit the frame. The training sequence generator further includes a symbol generator to generate a plurality of training symbols satisfying a predetermined constraint such that the training symbols are insensitive to synchronization error and a training sequence forming unit that forms the training sequence from the training symbols generated by the training symbol generator.

Abstract: A simulation system for a communication system includes a user interface to receive user definition and system configuration parameters of a simulation configuration file that includes a plurality of data structures representing various functional modules of the simulated communication system. A model library is provided to store different implementation models corresponding to different communication standards for each of the functional modules. A parsing module accesses the model library according to the user definition and system configuration parameters to obtain the appropriate implementation model for each of the functional modules, and generates a simulated system program based on the selected implementation models such that the simulated system program is reconfigurable to different implementations and communication standards. A simulation engine runs the simulated system program to simulate the simulated communication system. A simulated system program generation system is also described.
