Claim Text:
1. A method of channel estimation in a wireless environment, comprising: receiving, at a user equipment (UE), a pilot signal and an initial Primary Physical Common Control Channel (P-CCPCH) signal from a network entity, wherein the P-CCPCH signal comprises initial broadcast channel (BCH) data; predicting, based on at least the initial BCH data, subsequent P-CCPCH data to be received in a subsequent P-CCPCH signal at a time subsequent to the UE receiving the initial P-CCPCH signal; computing a first scaling constant based on the pilot signal and a second scaling constant based on the predicted subsequent P-CCPCH data; and performing channel estimation of a channel based at least in part on applying the first scaling constant to the pilot signal and the second scaling constant to the subsequent P-CCPCH signal.
