Access to FR2 (high frequency bands) is essential for anticipated high-demand networking in 5G-Advanced and 6G systems. Unfortunately, phase noise is an unavoidable barrier, greatly limiting message reliability. Therefore, a low-cost solution is provided in which the transmitter (either base station or user device) transmits a special phase-tracking reference signal consisting of zero amplitude in one branch, and a predetermined non-zero amplitude in the other branch. For example, in QAM, the I-branch may be powered according to the maximum branch amplitude of the modulation scheme, and the Q-branch may have zero amplitude as transmitted. The receiver, on the other hand, generally measures a non-zero amplitude in the received Q branch due to phase noise, which rotates the I and Q branches into each other. The receiver can then determine the phase rotation angle precisely by measuring the non-zero amplitude in the Q branch, negating phase noise at negligible cost.

According to one embodiment, a transmission device includes an insertion unit, an allocation unit, a division unit, an IFFT unit, a phase rotation unit, and a transmission unit. The phase rotation unit performs a phase rotation to reduce a PAPR characteristic for each block on which inverse fast Fourier transform has been performed. The transmission unit combines transmission signals, on each of which a phase rotation has been performed by the phase rotation unit, and transmits the combined transmission signal to an external device. In addition, the division unit includes a predetermined band and at least one pilot symbol located outside another of end of this predetermined band on an opposite side of the one end into one block.

A return channel system for ultra-small aperture terminals has a spreader that receives an input signal and outputs a spread spectrum signal having multiple replicated signals with a lower power than the input signal. A de-spreader includes a de-multiplexer that receives the spread spectrum signal via satellite. The de-multiplexer separates the spread spectrum signal into a first channel having a first signal and a second channel having a second signal. The de-spreader also has an offset compensation circuit having a phase estimator configured to estimate a phase offset between a phase of the first signal and a phase of the second signal. And a phase adjustor that receives the second signal and adjusts the phase of the second signal to align with the phase of the first signal to provide a phase-adjusted second signal. A summer combines the first signal with the phase-adjusted second signal to provide a composite signal.

Provided are a method and apparatus for estimating and correcting the phase error in 5G or pre-5G communication systems providing much higher data rates compared to existing 4G communication systems including LTE systems. The existing phase error estimation scheme using a cyclic prefix in the time domain may fail to prevent performance degradation due to inter-carrier interference. In the present invention, it is possible to enhance reception performance of the receiver by estimating and correcting the phase error multiple times within a symbol using a time domain signal and by reducing the influence of inter-carrier interference.

If optimal coherent information detection is desired, the at least one signal parameter is not only carrier phase offset and carrier timing offset, but also phase frequency offset, wherein the estimation and correction of the carrier frequency offset performed by the signal parameter acquisition unit is more precise than that performed by the non-linear filter demodulator. In such a case the detector is configured to detect information in the phase domain signal.
