Abstract

See full text

A channel estimation method for use with a received signal by a receiver is disclosed. The received signal comprises multiple data bursts which are transmitted to the receiver via multiple path channels, with each of the data bursts having a plurality of preamble symbols which are decoded. The channel estimation method includes the following steps: firstly, at least one correlation pattern is generated according to the decoded preamble symbols. Then, a cross correlation of the correlation pattern with the received signal is performed to yield at least one correlation result of channel impulse response (CIR). Wherein, the symbol boundary of the received signal is decided according to the correlation result.
