Accordingly, when a non-cyclic burst signal is received, the non-cyclic burst signal is divided into a signal presence period and a signal absence period, and the gain is only controlled by using the signal presence period. Therefore, accuracy of the signal level can be secured, and the signal level of the symbol can be calculated in the frequency domain, thereby reducing complexity. | 06-18-2009 |
