A wireless communication apparatus based on the LOS-MIMO technique may comprise a multi-link configuration unit, a frequency response correction unit, a signal compensation unit, and a feedback unit.

Also, precise separation of multiplexed signals through the above-described LOS equalizer can make it possible to increase transmission capacity by using the LOS-MIMO which can be applied to high-order mode (e.g., over 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM)) digital communications.
