Abstract

See full text

An OFDM receiver includes a fast Fourier transform processor that receives signal samples and outputs frequency domain samples corresponding to a received symbol. A delay element receives sets of frequency domain samples outputs each of the sets of frequency domain samples following a predetermined delay interval. A frequency domain channel estimator receives frequency domain samples and derives channel estimates from each of the sets of frequency domain samples. A channel estimate queue stores a sequence of channel estimates provided by the channel estimator and provides the sequence to a weighted averaging element that outputs an averaged channel estimate. A frequency equalizer outputs an equalized set of frequency domain samples responsive to the delayed set of frequency domain samples and to the averaged channel estimate.
