Abstract

Many blind detection algorithms for paired carrier multiple access (PCMA) signals in satellite communications require information about the signal and channel parameters. A blind receiver needs to obtain knowledge of at least some of these prior to the symbol detection process. In this paper, schemes for the blind estimation of the symbol rates and carrier frequencies of the two overlapping co-channel signals in PCMA are proposed. The methods exploit the cyclic statistics of the PCMA signal for the estimation of the desired parameters. Effects of the mutual interference of the carriers in the estimation process are analyzed and the performance of the proposed methods is evaluated via numerical simulations.
