    Abstract: An apparatus for estimating carrier frequency offset includes a notch frequency setting circuit, N notch filters, an Mth power circuit, a spectrum generating circuit, a peak frequency determining circuit, a comparing circuit, and a frequency offset determining circuit. The notch frequency setting circuit sets different notch-frequencies for the notch filters, which generate N filtered signals by filtering an input signal. The Mth power circuit performs an Mth power calculation on the N filtered signals to generate N Mth power filtered signals. The spectrum generating circuit generates N Mth order spectra for the N Mth power filtered signals. The peak frequency determining circuit determines respective peak frequencies of the N Mth order spectra. The comparing circuit identifies an optimal peak frequency from the N peak frequencies. The frequency offset determining circuit determines an estimated carrier frequency offset according to the optimal peak frequency.

    Abstract: A receiving circuit capable of estimating frequency offset includes a front circuit and a calculation circuit. The front circuit receives a remote signal to generate a received signal. The calculation circuit includes: an exponentiation module, calculating an exponent of a power to generate a high-order signal; a frequency-domain transform module, performing frequency-domain transform on the high-order signal to generate a spectrum; a peak searching module, searching for a peak of the amplitude of the spectrum to generate a peak coordinate value reflecting a frequency where the peak occurs; an offset estimating module, adding the peak coordinate value with a compensation value to generate a sum, dividing the sum by a first divisor to generate a remainder, subtracting the compensation value from the remainder to generate a difference, and dividing the difference by a second divisor to generate an offset estimation value reflecting the frequency offset.

    Abstract: An apparatus for estimating carrier frequency offset includes an Mth-power circuit, a spectrum generating circuit, a spectrum adjusting circuit, a peak frequency determining circuit and a frequency offset determining circuit. The Mth-power circuit performs an Mth-power calculation on an input signal to generate an Mth-power calculation result. The spectrum generating circuit generates a spectrum according to the Mth-power calculation result. The spectrum adjusting circuit identifies a partial energy peak value in a partial frequency range from the spectrum, and increases the partial energy peak value to be higher than any other energy in the spectrum to generate an adjusted spectrum. The peak frequency determining circuit identifies a peak frequency having a maximum energy peak value from the adjusted spectrum. The frequency offset determining circuit determines an estimated carrier frequency offset result according to the peak frequency.
