Abstract
A channel estimating technique is applied to an Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) communication system which receives a plurality of OFDM symbols. In one aspect, a channel estimating method includes performing Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) with a second number of sampling points and a phase shift on each of preliminarily estimated frequency-domain channel responses including a first number of response values corresponding to each of the OFDM symbols, so as to obtain a first time-domain channel impulse response corresponding to each of the OFDM symbols, where the first number is lager than the second number. The method also generates a plurality of frequency-domain channel responses corresponding to the OFDM symbols according to the time-domain channel impulse responses.
