Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for estimating a communication channel response, comprising procedures such as: receiving, via the channel, a signal comprising a plurality of symbols, each comprising a plurality of sub-carriers; determining a pilot sub-carrier response and a pilot sub-carrier metric for one or more pilot sub-carriers; and for one or more non-pilot sub-carriers: i) determining a non-pilot sub-carrier metric; ii) if the non-pilot sub-carrier metric satisfies a criterion, determining a particular component (e.g., real or imaginary) of a non-pilot sub-carrier response as a function of different components of one or more pilot sub-carrier responses; and iii) if the non-pilot sub-carrier metric does not satisfy the criterion, determine the particular component of the non-pilot sub-carrier response as a function of the particular component of one or more pilot sub-carrier responses. Other embodiments include a communication apparatus and a computer-readable medium configurable to perform such procedures.
