Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and a method of estimating a channel in consideration of a residual synchronization offset. The apparatus of estimating a channel in consideration of a residual synchronization offset includes: a channel estimating unit estimating the channel using pilots scattered over a plurality of OFDM symbols and calculating a first channel estimated value as the estimation result, in the case in which an OFDM symbol estimating the channel and an OFDM symbol compensating for the channel are different from each other; and a phase reflecting unit calculating a phase generated by the residual synchronization offset in proportion to a difference between a channel estimation time and a channel compensation time, reflecting the calculated phase in the first channel estimated value, and calculating a second channel estimated value as the reflection result.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a method and a system for performing initial ranging in a cognitive radio network The method for performing initial ranging in a cognitive radio network includes: detecting signals received in one or more ranging sections; estimating a tint time offset based on a correlation between subcarrier indices of the signals detected in the one or more ranging sections; estimating a second time offset based on correlations for the signals detected in the one or more ranging sections and a plurality of codes that are predetermined and detecting an initial ranging code among the plurality of codes; and estimating a time offset of a CPE performing initial ranging with the detected initial ranging code using the first time offset and the second time offset that are estimated.
