Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wireless communication technology, specifically relating to a communication frequency offset compensation method applicable to high-speed maglev and high-speed railways. Background Technology
[0002] Doppler frequency shift in high-speed maglev and high-speed rail communications can have numerous negative impacts on communication signals between trackside base stations and trains. Due to their high-speed operation (600 km / h for maglev and 400 km / h for high-speed rail), their frequency shift characteristics are large-scale, leading to a decrease in signal demodulation performance. This makes it difficult for receiving equipment to accurately reconstruct the original signal, thus increasing the bit error rate. Severe frequency shifts can cause communication link interruptions, preventing normal communication between the train and the base station, affecting train operation safety and passenger communication experience.
[0003] In existing technologies for Doppler frequency offset compensation of downlink signals in high-speed maglev and high-speed railway wireless communication, the accuracy of frequency offset estimation is significantly insufficient in complex environments. For example, in mountainous areas and tunnels, signals are not only affected by multipath interference but also by obstruction and reflection from mountainsides and tunnel walls, leading to complex changes in signal characteristics. Traditional frequency offset estimation methods based on pilot signals suffer a significant drop in accuracy in such complex environments because pilot signals are easily interfered with.
