This book provides techniques for symbol tracking and carrier acquisition in a Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) coded transmission. In traditional receiver architectures, acquisition and tracking are performed using phase-lock techniques that are independent of the channel-code decoding process. In burst reception scenarios, bandwidth inefficient piloting must often be embedded in a transmission in order to accelerate acquisition to aid symbol time tracking at low signal-to-noise ratios. In this book we show that outputs from an iterative decoder can be used to improve the estimation of symbol...
