Abstract: In a calibration apparatus in a communication system, a modulation unit calculates a reference signal by modulating a downlink signal, and a digital Intermediate Frequency (IF) unit converts the reference signal to an intermediate frequency signal. An up-converter converts the intermediate frequency signal to a Radio Frequency (RF) signal, and a down-converter generates a received signal for each of the paths from the RF signal to be transmitted through each path. A calibrator calculates a correction value for each path and a delay value by using the reference signal and the received signal for each path.

Abstract: A terminal demodulation apparatus previously stores a received frame signal in a memory before inputting the same into a fast Fourier transform (FFT) unit, performs a demodulation to necessary information read from the corresponding memory, and has a separate data subcarrier memory and pilot subcarrier memory, and uses the signal demodulation method mixed with a subcarrier allocation method so as to easily demodulate various subcarrier allocation methods.

Abstract: A receiving apparatus of a mobile terminal receiving a signal in a synchronous OFDM system under a multi-cell environment, including a demodulation start controller performing frame synchronization and cell search using a received signal and outputting information on a demodulation start point and a to-be-demodulated neighbor cell; a FFT unit converting a time-domain signal into a frequency-domain signal; a scramble code generator generating scramble codes for the to-be-demodulated neighbor cell from the demodulation start controller and the current cell; a correlator multiplying a signal from the FFT unit and scramble codes from the scramble code generator and outputting correlation signals; demodulators provided corresponding to a current cell and a maximum number of neighbor cells to be demodulated, and demodulating the correlation signals; and a decoder decoding signals from the demodulators and restoring original information transmitted from the corresponding cell.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for designing operation schedules of a fast Fourier transform (FFT) and a multiple input multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing modem (MIMO-OFDM modem) thereof. According to the present invention, an operation speed of an FFT operator is set up, a receiving symbol is arranged in an OFDM symbol duration in an FFT after receiving the symbol, a transmitting symbol is arranged in an OFDM symbol duration in the FFT schedule before transmitting the symbol, a transmitting/receiving symbol which has the same timing is inserted into an idle symbol duration of the FFT schedule, an FFT schedule which is good to be deleted is deleted, and symbols of the deleted FFT schedule are re-arranged in order to not have an error occur in transmitting/receiving timing.
