Short Description
Wireless receivers need to estimate the beginning of the data packet within the received signal as otherwise entire transmitted information is lost. This operation is called frame synchronization and it is essential for reliable communication. A common way to achieve frame synchronization is to send a special sequence, known to the receiver, called preamble. The receiver can then search for the preamble using a correlation filter. The goal of this project is to develop a novel synchronization algorithm for multi-antenna wireless systems and implement it in hardware while minimizing area and power.
