Abstract

An apparatus for detecting a packet end point in a wireless communication system includes: a signal reception unit configured to receive a signal from an outside, convert the signal into a baseband signal, perform analog-digital conversion of the baseband signal, and perform a digital front end; a storage unit configured to store an output of the signal reception unit; a frequency offset estimation unit configured to estimate a frequency offset using the output of the storage unit; a frequency offset correction unit configured to compensate for a frequency error using the estimated frequency offset; an offset correlation unit configured to calculate correlation of the frequency offset and a cyclic prefix; an auto-correlation operation unit configured to calculate auto-correlation of the cyclic prefix; and a packet end detection unit configured to check a packet end point using the auto-correlation.
