Abstract: One or more embodiments provide an apparatus and a method to estimate channel information even when channel information is not accurately known and design a relay filter based on the estimated information in a two-way relay system where a terminal having a single antenna and a relay exist. A relay apparatus of a two-way relay system includes a receiver, a controller, and a transmitter. The receiver receives a signal from at least one terminal. The controller estimates a channel between the terminals based on the received signal, and calculates a receiver matrix and a precoder. The transmitter transmits a signal precoded by the precoder.
