US Patent 9001935 Method and arrangement in wireless communications system

The present invention relates to a receiving node, and to a related method of adjusting a frequency domain channel estimate in a receiving node of a wireless communication system using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing. The method comprises estimating (210) a phase rotation of the frequency domain channel estimate, and compensating (220) for the estimated phase rotation in the frequency domain channel estimate. It also comprises transforming (230) the compensated frequency domain channel estimate into a time domain channel estimate, filtering (240) the time domain channel estimate to suppress noise, transforming (250) the filtered time domain channel estimate back into a noise suppressed frequency domain channel estimate, and adding (260) the estimated phase rotation in the noise suppressed frequency domain channel estimate to achieve an adjusted and improved frequency domain channel estimate.
