Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is an emerging multi-carrier modulation scheme, which has been adopted for several wireless standards such as IEEE 802.11a and HiperLAN2, etc. A well-known problem of OFDM is its sensitivity to frequency offset between the transmitted and received carrier frequencies. In (OFDM) system Carrier frequency offsets (CFOs) between the transmitter and the receiver destroy the orthogonality between carriers and degrade the system performance significantly. The main problem with frequency offset is that it introduces interference among the multiplicity of carriers in the OFDM signal.The conventional algorithms given by P. Moose and Schmidl describes how carrier frequency offset of an OFDM system can be estimated using training sequences. Simulation results show that the improved carrier frequency offset estimation algorithm which uses a complex training
sequence for frequency offset estimation, performs better than conventional P. Moose and Schmidl algorithm, which can effectively improve the frequency estimation accuracy and provides a wide acquisition range for the carrier frequency offset with low complexity. This paper introduces the BER comparisons of different algorithms with the Improved Algorithms for different Real and Complex modulations schemes, considering random carrier offsets . This paper also introduces the BER performances with different CFOs for different Real and Complex modulation schemes for the Improved algorithm.
