<p>A channel estimation apparatus and method is provided for a wireless communication signal received from at least one relatively mobile wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). Predetermined filter coefficients having unique index values are stored in a memory device. An index generator matches estimation values of the mobile unit speed and SNR to a particular filter coefficient, and selects a corresponding index value, whereby the memory performs a look up function according to the index value and outputs a filter coefficient vector. The channel estimation of the wireless communication signal is taken from the output of the filter. Alternatively, a set of parallel filters which run continuously are used to produce several channel estimates, from which the final estimate is selected based on the associated lowest mean square error or highest SNR.</p> |
