Abstract

This paper presents a near-optimum, low-complexity, fixed-interval smoothing algorithm that approaches the performance of an optimal smoother for the price of two low-complexity sequential estimators (two PLLs). The proposed Smoothing PLL (S-PLL) algorithm is easy to implement and fits the Cramer-Rao bounds over a wide range of signal-to-noise ratios. Moreover we show that, compared to the conventional forward loop, the proposed scheme allows to have a large gain of several dBs and is able to track frequency offsets.
