ABSTRACT:
A delay profile estimation apparatus and a correlating unit to obtain delay profile with suppressed noise are disclosed. The delay profile estimation apparatus includes a receiving unit to receive a communication signal (received signal), a conversion unit to inverse-Fourier-transform a known pilot signal that consists of N samples, a correlating unit to obtain a correlation value between the inverse-Fourier-transformed known pilot signal and the received signal, the correlating unit being connected to the receiving unit and the conversion unit, and a delay profile generating unit for generating a delay profile of the received signal based on the correlation value. The correlating unit cyclically shifts N samples of the received signal, or the N samples of the known pilot signal when calculating the correlation value corresponding to a phase difference between the inverse-Fourier-transformed known pilot signal and the received signal.
