This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for equalization domain selection at a wireless device. A wireless device may be configured to support a selection between time domain equalization and frequency domain equalization for receiving RF signals, which may be performed in accordance with detected channel conditions. For example, if a wireless device detects conditions associated with a relatively dispersive channel, the wireless device may select a frequency domain equalization and, if the wireless device detects conditions associated with a relatively flat channel, the wireless device may select a time domain equalization. In some implementations, performing a time domain equalization may include changing a sampling rate into a symbol rate, such as performing a resampling using a Farrow resampler. Such techniques may include a wireless device selecting an equalization scheme associated with a relatively lowest power consumption for detected channel conditions.

Disclosed is a method and a first transceiver of a wireless communication network, for handling reference signals. The method comprises receiving, from a second transceiver, at antenna elements of each of M antenna branches of the first transceiver and in time domain, an OFDM modulated wideband reference signal comprising an OFDM reference signal symbol mapped to every K subcarrier frequency of at least a subset of a carrier frequency bandwidth, and, at each of the M antenna branches, sampling the received wideband reference signal using N samples per OFDM symbol. The method further comprises, for each of the M antenna branches, accumulating the received, sampled wideband reference signal over at least two repetition blocks, each of length of N/K, to obtain a condensed signal with the length N/K samples and conveying the condensed signal over an interface to an aggregate unit.

Provided is a wireless communication apparatus wherein channel estimation accuracy is improved while keeping the position of each bit in a frame, even when a modulation system having a large modulation multiple value is used for a data symbol. In the wireless communication apparatus, an encoding section encodes and outputs transmitting data to a bit converting section, and the bit converting section converts at least one bit of a plurality of bits constituting a data symbol to be used for channel estimation, among the encoded bit strings, into 1 or 0 and outputs it to a modulating section. The modulating section modulates the bit string inputted from the bit converting section by using a single modulation mapper and a plurality of data symbols are generated.

A receiver for receiving OFDM signals with a channel estimation means is disclosed. The channel estimation means estimates the channel at pilot locations by least squares estimation at pilot locations in subcarriers that include pilot symbols. Using the estimates of the channel at pilot locations, it estimates the channel for each subcarrier containing the pilot symbols, using linear interpolation. It estimates the channel for the sub-frame by interpolating the channel estimates estimated for the sub-carriers including the pilot locations, by using Minimum Mean Square Estimation that uses an auto-covariance matrix. An auto-covariance matrix generator generates the auto-covariance matrix. It generates an auto-covariance matrix based on, an extended cyclic prefix, an estimate of the channel in the time domain estimated by performing an Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform on the channel estimated as above and an average tap power calculated based on the estimate of the channel in the time domain.
