A method and an apparatus for detecting an envelope using a difference between sampling signals are provided. The method includes generating sampling sets based on sampling signals of a modulated signal, and determining a sampling set from the sampling sets. The method further includes determining an envelope component value associated with a sampling signal among sampling signals included in the determined sampling set, based on a difference between the sampling signals included in the determined sampling set, and a difference between sampling signals included in each of the sampling sets other than the determined sampling set. The method further includes detecting an envelope of the modulated signal based on the envelope component value.
Abstract:
Provided is a method and apparatus to adaptively set a threshold for signal demodulation. The apparatus and the method include adaptively setting a threshold to demodulate a currently received symbol based on the demodulation value of a previously received symbol based on a comparison value. The comparison value is obtained by comparing a number of previously received symbols having a demodulation value of “0” and a number of currently received symbols having a demodulation value of “1”.
