The invention provides a method for
processing OFDMA distance signals and a
system thereof, which are used to process the distance signals of a
wireless communication
system which uses the OFDMA technique to obtain a practical
ranging code and timing offset in a present
ranging time slot. A normal
ranging method in an existing technique is a bi-dimensional
ergodic process, the complexity of computation is high, and a
frequency domain difference ranging method has the problem that the detecting performance of the ranging code and the timing estimating performance are worse due to multi-user disturbance. The
processing method of the invention and the
system thereof firstly calculate
frequency domain difference cross-correlation functions of neighboring carriers in a range channel, then a first screening threshold is calculated, a
candidate key set is screened according to the first screening threshold, estimated timing offset is calculated, then, the cross-correlation functions and a second screening threshold between a ranging code
frequency domain sequence and a local ranging code are calculated, finally, the practical timing offset is calculated, and the practical ranging code is screened from the
candidate key set. The method and the system of the invention can guarantee the ranging accuracy and also can guarantee lower complexity of computation.
