Abstract
Disclosed is a method for channel estimation and feedback in a wireless communication system that estimates a channel for each transmission antenna using an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) impulse signal. A method for channel estimation in a wireless communication system includes causing a base station to generate a training signal with a specific waveform for each transmission antenna and to transmit the generated training signal to terminals; causing the terminals to acquire a downlink channel impulse response for each transmission antenna of the base station using the training signal transmitted from the base station; causing the terminals to acquire a downlink channel characteristic for each transmission antenna of the base station using the acquired channel impulse response; causing the terminal to feed back the acquired downlink channel characteristic information to the base station; and causing the base station to perform fast Fourier transform (FFT) on the downlink channel information transmitted from the terminals to indirectly acquire full channel status information (CSI).
