Research and Implementation of Improved QAM Carrier Synchronization Algorithm Based on FPGA
The common carrier synchronization algorithms were analyzed and compared,and a joint carrier synchro-nization algorithm applied to quadrature amplitude modulation(QAM)system was proposed from two aspects of fre-quency offset capture capability and phase stability.Hardware description language Verilog HDL and calling IP core were used to realize each functional module.The top-down system design idea was adopted to realize the functions of polarity decision algorithm,decision directed algorithm and optimization algorithm on the field programmable gate array(FPGA)platform.The constellation diagram was formed by using MATLAB to demodulate the recovered base-band signal,which proved that the optimization algorithm can greatly improve the demodulation performance of QAM system.
