Provided is an apparatus and method for controlling a dynamic range of weight vectors according to a combining method to fit an input range of a channel decoder in a mobile station of a high rate packet data system. The apparatus includes a channel estimator for receiving pilot symbol from a base station and calculating channel estimation values of receive paths of each antenna, an autocorrelation matrix calculator for calculating autocorrelation matrix values in every chip duration from the received pilot symbols, a weight vector calculator for calculating weight vectors using the channel estimation values and/or autocorrelation matrix values according to a combining method of the multi-path received signals, a controller for outputting modified weight vectors by fitting an input range of a channel decoder according to the combining method, and a combiner for outputting the combined signal by multiplying descrambled received signals by the modified weight vectors. Accordingly, even if various combining methods are used when data is received in a mobile station of a high rate packet data system using the CDMA scheme, performance degradation of a channel decoder can be minimized.

An apparatus and method for estimating a channel in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is provided. The apparatus and method includes estimating a channel corresponding to a pilot of a received signal, performing a first estimation on a data channel by performing time-domain linear interpolation on pilots of previous and next symbols of the pilot using the channel estimate, performing Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filtering on the channel estimate and the data channel estimate of the pilots of the previous and next symbols of the pilot, and performing a second estimation on the data channel by performing frequency-domain linear interpolation on a remaining zone which excludes the pilot and the zone that underwent the first estimation.

Provided is an apparatus and method for controlling an interleaver/deinterleaver memory in a mobile communication system are provided. In particular, an apparatus and method are provided which can reduce unnecessary time and power consumption by eliminating an unnecessary memory erasure. A write address generator generates write addresses. A memory stores values mapped to the write addresses. A memory controller controls the memory in which an input signal is accumulated to a value stored at a write address which is then recorded at the write address if the value stored at the write address is recorded for a previous packet when the input signal is generated. The memory controller controls the memory in which the input signal is recorded at the write address if the value stored at the current record address is a valid value for a current packet.

A system and method are provided for setting a point of time when information is applied in a mobile communication system. A broadcast overhead message including additional information is received and its application time-point is computed. The broadcast overhead message including the additional information is then applied at the computed time-point.

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for efficiently controlling buffers which support a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) in a wireless communication system. Buffer regions for the HARQ scheme are not fixedly allocated according to channel identification information, but are allocated from the viewpoint of one overall memory through aggregation support. That is, an HARQ buffer is dynamically controlled. Therefore, there are the effects reducing the size of the entire chip, as well as reducing power consumption of the entire system according to the reduction of the chip size.

An apparatus and method for estimating a cell load in a wireless communication system are provided. The apparatus includes a ranging response counter, a load estimator, an FA handover determiner, a data rate determiner, and a handover determiner. The ranging response counter counts the number of ranging response messages that are received during one period of periodic ranging. The load estimator estimates a cell load on the basis of the number of the ranging response messages. The FA handover determiner determines an FA handover on the basis of the cell load from the load estimator. The data rate determiner controls a data rate of a service on the basis of the cell load from the load estimator and requests the controlled data rate to the system. The handover determiner controls handover parameters on the basis of the cell load from the load estimator.

An apparatus and method for channel estimation decrease overhead and hardware complexity while supporting both Wiener-type channel estimation and Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filtering/Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filtering in a wireless communication system. The apparatus includes a storage unit for storing coefficient sets for a plurality of channel estimation types. A controller selects one of the plurality of channel estimation types according to at least one of a type of a pilot signal and a reliability value of a channel parameter. An N-tap filter, including N multipliers and (N−1) adders, determines channel estimation values of data tones by using the coefficient sets for the selected channel estimation type.

An apparatus and method for improving a HARQ combining gain in a broadband wireless communication system are provided. The apparatus includes a seed information generator and a subcarrier allocator. The seed information generator randomly generates a seed value for changing a channel of a subcarrier and an interference pattern in a frame unit when a HARQ combining gain is not generated because an interference pattern is the same during a retransmission period. The subcarrier allocator allocates a subcarrier using the generated seed value.

A method and HARQ memory apparatus in a BWA communication system are provided where the HARQ memory apparatus includes a memory configured to partition the entire memory area in units of slots corresponding to the size of a concatenation block, to input/output a plurality of channel data to the slot in units of the concatenation block, to store a new concatenation block in an empty slot, and to combine a retransmitted concatenation block with a prestored concatenation block and store the combined concatenation block at a prestored location. Accordingly, the required amount of memory can be reduced by using a buffer efficiently. In particular, when a memory is embedded in an integrated circuit, the size and power consumption of the integrated circuit can be reduced.
