CHANNEL ESTIMATION AND EQUALIZATION METHOD AND SYSTEM

摘要

PURPOSE: A channel estimation and equalization method and a system are provided to reduce a channel estimation error by inserting a pilot signal into a protection interval of the OFDM symbol and using a sequence included in the pilot signal. CONSTITUTION: In a device, a parallel converter(110) divides and outputs a received signal into a protection section signal and an effective symbol interval signal. A first channel estimator(120) receives the protection section signal, and it estimates an impulse response of channel and outputs it. A channel equalization part(150) equalizes channel distortion of an effective symbol interval signal by using the impulse response value outputted from the first channel estimator, and it outputs the equalized signal. A second channel estimating unit(200) receives the signal outputted from the effective symbol interval signal and the channel equalization part. The second channel estimating unit estimates a frequency response to the effective symbol interval signal and outputs a frequency response of effective symbol interval signal.
