Abstract

An apparatus includes a converter separating the OFDM signal into the several sub-carriers, an extraction circuit extracting the reference symbol from at least one of a plurality of sub-carriers, an estimation circuit estimating a transmission distortion channel every the sub-carrier based on the amplitude and phase characteristic of the reference symbol, an adder adding channel estimation results of a first sub-carrier be set at least one of the plurality of sub-carriers, a second sub-carrier adjacent to a high-band side of the first sub-carrier and a third sub-carrier adjacent to a low-band side of the first sub-carrier, a calculator calculating the average of the added value to obtain amplitude and phase correction values with respect to the first sub-carrier, and a correction circuit correcting amplitude and phase with respect to each of the plurality of sub-carriers based on the amplitude and phase correction values.
