In this paper, a robust, low-complexity timing synchronization algorithm suitable for 5.9 GHz Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) system is proposed. The proposed method uses cross-correlation technique to detect the starting point of both a short training symbol and the guard interval of the first long training symbol. This allows the proposed algorithm to have low-complex architecture. Compared to the scheme proposed by Chang and Kelly, the proposed algorithm attains considerably higher timing synchronization performance and significantly reduced computational complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is robust and efficient in high-mobility environments and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions.
