Abstract: Provided are an apparatus for reducing clipping noise in a broadband wireless communication system in which a clipping method is used and a method thereof. The method includes, when clipped signals are received, decoding and equalizing the received signals to determine transmitted symbols, comparing the magnitudes of the amplitudes of the determined transmitted symbols with a predetermined reference value, and reconstructing signals using the amplitudes of the transmitted symbols and the phases of the received signals when it is determined that the magnitudes of the amplitudes of the transmitted symbols are greater than the reference value.
