Pilot transmission and channel estimation techniques for an OFDM system with excess delay spread are described. To mitigate the deleterious effects of excess delay spread, the number of pilot subbands is greater than the cyclic prefix length. This “oversampling” may be achieved by using more pilot subbands in each symbol period or different sets of pilot subbands in different symbol periods. In one example, a first set of pilot subands may be received in a first symbol period, and a second set of pilot subands may be received in a second symbol period. The first set of pilot subands and the second set of pilot subbands may be staggered in frequency.
