Abstract
A receiving device in a multi-carrier CDMA communication system. In the receiving device, a time compensation means has a time tracker for each of signals received on multi-carriers and generates a time delay compensation signal by combining time errors of the carriers received from the time trackers. A first PN sequence generator generates a first PN sequence whose time delay is compensated for by the time delay compensation signal. A plurality of PN despreaders PN-despread the signals received on the multi-carriers by the first PN sequence. A frequency compensation means detects pilot signals corresponding to the PN-despread signals, generates frequency error signals for the carriers by the detected pilot signals, and compensates for frequency errors of the signals received on the multi-carriers. A phase compensation means compensates for phases for the carriers using the PN-despread signals and the pilot signals. A multiplexer multiplexes the phase-compensated signals.
