Signal to interference ratio estimation

摘要

A circuit is designed with an estimate circuit (132) coupled to receive a plurality of predetermined signals (416-418) from an external source. Each of the predetermined signals is spaced apart in time. The estimate circuit produces a first estimate signal in response to at least one of the plurality of predetermined signals. An averaging circuit is coupled to receive a data signal (416) and at least one of the plurality of predetermined signals. The averaging circuit produces an average signal from the data signal and the at least one of the plurality of predetermined signals.
