<p>In estimating propagation path in an OFDM receiver (30) in an OFDM communication system, a CIR estimation unit estimates a group of impulse responses of a propagation path, a valid-impulse discriminator selects impulse responses (CIR), which are greater than a predetermined threshold value, from the impulse-response group, and a propagation path estimation unit generates a matrix expression using a CIR estimation vector that includes the selected CIRs as elements, a matrix S, which is decided based upon number N of points of an IFFT used in OFDM modulation and number Nc of subcarriers used in actual transmission, and a propagation-path response vector, obtains the propagation-path response vector by solving this matrix expression and estimating the propagation path.</p> |
