A transmitting device Fourier-transforms symbols in a transmission symbol sequence, maps the Fourier-transformed symbols to subcarriers, inverse-Fourier-transforms the mapped symbols, and transmits the inverse-Fourier-transformed symbols from multiple transmitting antennas. A receiving device Fourier-transforms received signals, extracts signal components mapped to the subcarriers, and estimates the symbols transmitted via the subcarriers by applying a QR decomposition algorithm to the extracted signal components. The receiving device obtains a unitary matrix Q H such that the product of the unitary matrix Q H , a weight matrix W determining a correspondence between the transmission symbol sequence and the subcarriers, and a channel matrix H becomes a triangular matrix R, and estimates candidates of the symbols transmitted from the transmitting antennas based on the unitary matrix Q H and the triangular matrix R. |
