Apparatus and method for two-dimensional equalization in a communication system using orthogonal frequency division multiple access

摘要

Provided is a two-dimensional equalization method in a receiver of a communication system using an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) scheme. The receiver sets as a first value a value of a 1-tap frequency domain equalizer (FEQ) corresponding to a sub-channel allocated to the receiver , and sets as a second value a value of a 1-tap FEQ corresponding to sub-channels other than the allocated sub-channel. Upon receipt of a signal, the receiver performs Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) on the received signal, and equalizes the FFT-processed signal according to the values of the 1-tap FEQs.
