Abstract
Provided are a method and device for estimating a channel in a wireless communication system, and more particularly, a method of estimating a channel of an uplink signal in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)/orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) communication system supporting the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.16d/e standards and a channel estimation device employing the method. The method includes the steps of: extracting pilot symbols included in the received signal and estimating linear phase values using the pilot symbols; interpolating the pilot symbols along a time axis and obtaining first channel responses; interpolating the pilot symbols along a frequency axis according to the first channel responses and obtaining second channel responses; and calculating channel estimation values using the second channel responses and the linear phase values.
