This paper presents discrete stochastic approximation algorithms (DSA) for time synchronization in OFDM systems. The paper shows that the discrete stochastic approximation algorithms can be effectively used to achieve a significant reduction in computational complexity compared to brute force maximum-likelihood (ML) methods for OFDM synchronization. The most important property of the proposed algorithms is their recursive self-learning capability - most of the computational effort is spent at the global or a local optimizer of the objective function.
