An apparatus and method for removing a Direct Current (DC) offset at a receiving terminal in a wireless communication system are provided. In the method, a frame is divided into at least two time resource blocks. Resource allocation information is used to discriminate between at least one time resource block of a data-unmapped interval and at least one time resource block of a data-mapped interval. The DC offset is measured during the data-unmapped interval. The DC offset is compensated during the data-unmapped interval on a time resource block basis by using the measured DC offset.

An apparatus and a method for controlling power consumption in a system having a plurality of modems are provided. In the method, whether an interrupt is generated in each modem is detected. An amount of current consumption of the system at a processing point of the generated interrupt is determined. The amount of current consumption of the system is compared with a threshold, so that the processing point of the generated interrupt is controlled.

An apparatus and a method for acquiring synchronization to support multi-frequency in a mobile communication terminal are provided. The apparatus includes a frequency generator, a control signal generator and at least two modems for operating respective Frequency Allocations (FAs) by sharing the frequency generator and the control signal generator. In an embodiment, the frequency generator respectively receives first reference frequency clock signals from an oscillator of each of the at least two modems and generates a second reference frequency clock signal and the control signal generator outputs a signal for controlling the oscillator of each of the at least two modems according to a frequency offset value estimated in each of the at least two modems.

An apparatus and method for initial fractional frequency offset estimation are provided. In an apparatus for estimating an initial fractional frequency offset in a Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) communication system, the apparatus includes a sample power calculator for calculating a power of input sample data and for calculating an average power of a specific symbol, a power threshold comparator for comparing the sample data power in magnitude with the average power of the specific symbol and for outputting one of an accumulation ON and OFF signal, a first buffer for correlating a last data of the sample data with the sample data and for storing sample data corresponding to a preset number of correlation results, a second buffer for storing sample data corresponding to correlation results other than the sample data stored in the first buffer; and an accumulator for allowing accumulation of sample data stored in the second buffer if the power threshold comparator outputs the accumulation ON signal.

Disclosed is an apparatus and a method for performing a cell search in a wireless communication system. A subscriber station calculates the power of subcarriers according to their positions in a preamble signal of a frequency domain and identifies a segment of a cell to which the subscriber station belongs. Then, the subscriber station correlates PN sequences, which correspond to the segment of the cell that has been identified, with the preamble signal of the frequency domain. Therefore, the number of calculations for determining correlation values in a cell search is remarkably reduced.
