Abstract
A method is for communicating by tracking time varying channels in a multiple access packet based communication network. Each packet includes a preamble portion including a data symbol, and a data portion including data symbols. The method may include initializing a channel estimate reference from an initial channel estimate based upon the data symbol in a preamble portion of a received packet, and updating the channel estimate reference based upon a channel estimate of a current data symbol and a previously received data symbol from the data symbols in a data portion of the received packet. The method may also include repeating the updating upon receipt of a subsequent data symbol from the data symbols in the data portion of the received packet.

39. A method of communicating by tracking a plurality of time varying channels in a multiple access packet based communication network, each packet comprising a preamble portion including at least one data symbol, and a data portion including a plurality of data symbols, the method comprising:
-
initializing a channel estimate reference from an initial channel estimate based upon the at least one data symbol in a preamble portion of a received packet; updating the channel estimate reference based upon a channel estimate of a current data symbol and at least one previously received data symbol from the plurality of data symbols in a data portion of the received packet; and repeating the updating upon receipt of at least one subsequent data symbol from the plurality of data symbols in the data portion of the received packet. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49)

50. A wireless communications device for communicating by tracking a plurality of time varying channels in a multiple access packet based communication network, each packet comprising a preamble portion including at least one data symbol, and a data portion including a plurality of data symbols, the wireless communications device comprising:
-
a controller; and a wireless transceiver cooperating with said controller for initializing a channel estimate reference from an initial channel estimate based upon the at least one data symbol in a preamble portion of a received packet, updating the channel estimate reference based upon a channel estimate of a current data symbol and at least one previously received data symbol from the plurality of data symbols in a data portion of the received packet, and repeating the updating upon receipt of at least one subsequent data symbol from the plurality of data symbols in the data portion of the received packet. - View Dependent Claims (51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59)
