Aiming at the timing synchronization problem in underwater acoustic single-carrier frequency domain equalization system (SC-FDE), the training sequence and new metric function is constructed by using the well-related Zadoff-Chu (ZC) sequence, and the genetic algorithm is used to optimize the combination structure, which solves the problems of peak platform and false peak interference in the commonly used synchronization methods. Simulation results show that the improved synchronization algorithm is more accurate at the timing point under low signal-to-noise ratio and has high synchronization accuracy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
