Methods and apparatuses for channel estimation are disclosed. The method includes: converting -1's in a local Barker code to 0's; receiving a first preamble symbol output from a first Barker correlator and a second preamble symbol output from a second Barker correlator with a symbol determination module, the first preamble symbol being adjacent to the second preamble symbol; multiplying a result output from the symbol determination module with a correlation result output from the cyclic Barker correlator by using a multiplication module so as to obtain a channel estimation response; and receiving channel estimation responses with a time-domain channel data storage unit, and averaging them to obtain a noise-reduced channel estimation response. The channel estimation method and apparatus of the present invention can be achieved based on few hardware resources and low computation complexity. |
