Abstract
An apparatus and method for estimating the CINR of an uplink channel in a broadband wireless communication system are provided, in which tiles being subcarrier sets are separated from a feedback signal received on the uplink channel. All symbols included in the tiles of the feedback signal are correlated with each of codewords, the absolute values of the correlations are squared for the each codeword and summed, a codeword with a maximum sum from among the codewords is selected. Received power level and noise power level are calculated using all the symbols included in the tiles of the feedback signal correlated with the codeword with the maximum sum, and the CINR of the uplink channel is estimated using the received power and the noise power levels.
