Abstract
In the method of estimating a signal-to-interference+noise ratio (SINR), an initial SINR estimate is generated based on a mean of a plurality of samples and a sample variance estimate of the plurality of samples. Then, the initial SINR estimate is scaled and translated. Furthermore, SINR estimates based on pilot symbols and data symbols, respectively, are combined to form a composite estimate.
