Abstract: The invention provides a digital circuit arrangement for an ambient noise-reduction system affording a higher degree of noise reduction than has hitherto been possible, through the use of a low latency signal processing chain consisting of analogue-to-digital conversion, digital processing and digital-to-analogue conversion. The arrangement converts the analogue signals into N-bit digital signals at sample rate f o , and then subjects the converted signals to digital filtering. The value of N in some embodiments is 1 but, in any event, is no greater than 8, and f o  may be 64 times the Nyquist sampling rate but, in any event, is substantially greater than the Nyquist sampling rate. This permits digital processing to be used without incurring group delay problems that rule out the use of conventional digital processing in this context. Furthermore, adjustment of the group delay can readily be achieved, in units of a fraction of a micro-second, providing the ability to fine tune the group delay for feed forward applications.

Abstract: In a radio communication system, each of user terminals together with transmitting a data signal to a base station using different data transmission band frequencies that are assigned by a base station, performs time-division multiplexing of a pilot signal with the data signal and transmit the resulting signal to the base station. A resource management unit of the base station decides pilot transmission bands for each user terminal so that the pilot transmission band covers the data transmission band for each user terminal by frequency offset, and instructs the user terminal to transmit pilot signals using the decided pilot transmission band frequencies. Thereby the base station can estimate channel for each frequency of the data transmission band using the pilot signal.
