Abstract
The present disclosure is used to determine a number of sub-carriers or symbols to be used to estimate N channels for N user equipment (UE)s on a basis of resource allocation information on N reference signals associated with the N UEs, estimate channel values for the N channels by receiving the N reference signals through the sub-carriers or the symbols according to the determined number, and correlate the estimated channel values to use the correlated channel values to estimate each of the N channels.
Claims20
A method for channel estimation in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- determining a number of sub-carriers or symbols to be used to estimate N channels for N user equipment (UE) on a basis of resource allocation information on N reference signals associated with the N UEs;
- estimating channel values for the N channels by receiving the N reference signals through the sub-carriers or the symbols according to the determined number;
- and
- correlating the estimated channel values and using the correlated channel values to estimate each of the N channels.
An apparatus for channel estimation in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:
- a reception unit;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- determine a number of sub-carriers or symbols to be used to estimate N channels for N user equipment (UE)s on a basis of resource allocation information on N reference signals associated with the N UEs
- estimate channel values for the N channels when the N reference signals are received through the sub-carriers or the symbols according to the determined number;
- and
- correlate the estimated channel values and using the correlated channel values to estimate each of the N channels.
