Reception method and reception apparatus

A wireless communications method comprising:

• receiving a plurality of modulated signals, with at least one modulated signal from among the plurality thereof including, in a predetermined order, a frequency offset estimation signal, a channel fluctuation estimation signal, at least one gain control signal;
• controlling a gain of the at least one modulated signal based upon the at least one gain control signal;
• adjusting a frequency offset of the at least one modulated signal based upon the frequency offset estimation signal;
• estimating a channel fluctuation of the at least one modulated signal where the frequency offset is adjusted, based upon the channel fluctuation estimation signal;
• separating the at least one modulated signal from the received plurality of modulated signals where the frequency offset is adjusted based upon the estimated channel fluctuation;
• and
• demodulating the separated at least one modulated signal.
