Abstract

An apparatus and a method for estimating noise power in frequency domain are provided. The apparatus and the method are applied to a state where no packet is transmitted over the channels. And the apparatus and the method acquire noise in every sub-carrier, and obtain the transmission status in every sub-channel to adjust bit-loading in every sub-carrier and improve the spectral-efficiency.
