Abstract
A device for updating complex channel gain estimates for orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) symbols that includes a receiver to receive a plurality of OFDM symbols, wherein each OFDM symbol includes a plurality of pilot tones at a subset of odd positions and a finite impulse response (FIR) filter. The FIR filter configured to filter a plurality of initial channel estimates of odd tones of an OFDM symbol using a first set of coefficients to generate an updated estimate of the channel estimates of the plurality of odd tones for that OFDM symbol, and filter the plurality of the initial channel estimates of the odd tones of the OFDM symbol using a second set of coefficients to generate estimates for a plurality of initial channel estimates of even tones for that OFDM symbol.
