An apparatus and a method of detecting an error symbol in a data storage apparatus so that an error correcting performance of an error correction decoder. The error symbol detecting apparatus includes an equalizer equalizing a signal transmitted to a channel using a channel equalization characteristic that is suitable for a corresponding system, a data detector to detect data from the signal output from the equalizer, a modeling tool designed to have the same characteristics corresponding to a partial response (PR) target polynomial applied to the system, a correlation evaluation information generating unit to generate correlation evaluation information based on a correlation degree between an actual output of the equalizer and a target output of the modeling tool, and an error symbol determination unit to determine an order of probability of error generation of the symbols based on the correlation evaluation information, and to determine a predetermined number of symbols having a high probability of generating errors corresponding to the order of probability of error generation as error generating symbols.

Channel estimation apparatus and method for interference cancellation in a mobile communication system are provided. The channel estimation method includes detecting a preamble from a received signal and estimating a primary channel using the detected preamble; calculating a short-term correlation matrix using the primary channel; and estimating a secondary channel using the calculated short-term correlation matrix according to a certain channel estimation scheme.

An apparatus and method for receiving a signal in a communication system are provided. Information related to a first modulation scheme applied to a frequency domain in a serving base station is received from the serving base station. Information related to a second modulation scheme applied to the frequency domain in at least one neighbor base station is received from the at least one neighbor base station. A signal is received in the frequency domain. Channel state information is generated by estimating the received signal. A determination is made as to whether to use interference cancellation using the channel state information, the first modulation scheme information and the second modulation scheme information.

Methods for planarizing a metal layer in a semiconductor device are disclosed. An illustrated example method comprises dividing a metal layer into a first section and a second section. A polishing removal rate associated with the first section is greater than a polishing removal rate associated with the second section. The method also includes forming an oxide layer on the first section of the metal layer; and planarizing the oxide layer and the metal layer using a chemical mechanical polishing process.
