<p>The present invention relates to a receiver apparatus and method of blind amplitude estimation for a received complex signal, wherein the complex signal is analyzed to determine first and second order statistics of real part and imaginary part of the complex signal. Based on a predetermined non-linear function, amplitude scaling information is precalculated and used to derive a desired amplitude scaling information for said determined first and second order statistics. Thereby, a low complexity method for blind amplitude estimation for unknown data symbols distorted by an unknown amount of noise can be provided.</p> |
