In this letter, standard particle swarm optimization (PSO) with the center-symmetric trimmed correlation matrix and the orthogonal projection technique is firstly presented for blind carrier frequency offset estimation under interleaved orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) uplink systems. It doesn't require eigenvalue decomposition and only needs a single OFDMA data block. Second, this letter also presents adaptive multiple inertia weights with Newton method to speed up the convergence of standard PSO iteration process. Meanwhile, the advantage of inherent interleaved OFDMA signal structure also is exploited to conquer the problems of local optimization and the effect of ambiguous peaks for the proposed approaches. Finally, several simulation results are provided for illustration and comparison.
