This paper proposes a novel Error Synchronization Algorithm (ESA) to improve the spectral efficiency and signal strength in OFDM systems. The ESA provides an adaptive selection of cyclic prefix based on the average synchronization error and changing channel SNR. It aims to 1) significantly improve transmitted signal strength by effective CP selection and 2) enhance the spectral efficiency of OFDM-based WiMAX networks under Rayleigh fading channels. Simulation results show that the ESA maintains a high raw data rate and spectral efficiency even under deteriorating channel conditions by dynamically switching the CP. It also confirms more effective use of higher order modulation schemes at lower channel SNRs compared to fixed CP approaches. The ESA significantly reduces signal degradation and ensures better quality of service for WiMAX
