<![CDATA[A radio system design providing various data service needs becomes one of the Software Defined Radio (SDR) system advantages. SDR technology applies software functions further to be run in hardware platforms. The need for services with greater data rates can be resolved by using multi-carrier transmission techniques, one of which is the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technique. This paper discusses the detection of OFDM signals and their parameters. Multi-carrier transmission can prevent Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) occurrence due to multi-path fading effect. The recognition can classify the correctly received signals, including the signal conditions mixed with AWGN noise. The autocorrelation method was used to estimate the OFDM parameters, namely the one symbol duration and the cyclic prefix duration. The detected cyclic prefix durations were 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16. This method is very simple, because with the cyclic prefix presence, a different signal peak will be detected to further estimate the cyclic prefix duration. The results show the correlation method performance can detect one symbol duration with 100%, accuracy, starting at SNR 0 dB, whereas the cyclic prefix duration accuracy rate is getting more accurate by using a less cyclic prefix duration, which is 1/16 of the total symbol duration.]]>
