We propose a time synchronization method which is applicable to both offset quadrature amplitude modulation based filter-bank multicarrier (FBMC-OQAM) system and quadrature amplitude modulation based filter-bank multicarrier (FBMC-QAM) system. Based on the relation between the transmitted data symbols and FBMC signal, we design the scattered symbols to make a specific time domain region empty. Then, we insert the preamble in that region so as to transmit it perfectly. The performance of the proposed synchronization method is compared with the conventional time synchronization methods for the FBMC systems in terms of root mean square error (RMSE) of symbol timing offset (STO), bit error ratio (BER) and correctly detected data bit ratio per frame. Since the proposed method can reduce the resource usage for the synchronization, the resources for data transmission can be increased, thereby improving the spectral efficiency of the FBMC systems.
