Receiver for a multi-carrier communication system

摘要

A receiver for a multi-carrier communication system has a channel corrector ( 173 ) which receives an input signal (CDC 2 ) and a correction control signal (EC) to correct an amplitude and/or phase of the input signal (CDC 2 ) to obtain a corrected signal (ED). A channel estimator ( 19 ) has a slicer ( 190 ) which performs a hard-decision on the corrected signal (ED) to obtain a decided signal (HDS). The correction control signal (EC) is dependent on a difference between the input signal (CDC 2 ) and the decided signal (HDS) to decrease said difference.
