Abstract
An apparatus and a method for estimating a Noise and Interference (NI) power in a communication system are provided. The method includes, calculating average values of impulse responses according to ranging codes, through use of a ranging signal sequence received through a resource allocated to a ranging channel, arranging the average values of the impulse responses according to ranging codes in order of the highest value to the lowest value, and multiplying a ranging code, which corresponds to an impulse response having an (x+1)peak value among the arranged average values of the impulse responses, by a specific threshold value, and estimating the NI power, wherein 'x' represents a number of ranging codes which can be simultaneously received by one ranging channel.
