Abstract

The invention discloses a signal channel estimation post processing method and receiving equipment, which relate to the field of communication. In the invention, signal channel estimation results are backed up before the post processing on the signal channel estimation results. After the post processing, the invention judges whether signals of all paths in the current user window are processed into 0 or not, and if so, a receiving end recovers the signal channel estimation in the current user window according to the backup signal channel estimation results. Because when the signals of all paths in the current user window are processed into 0, the signal channel estimation in the current user window is recovered, relevant processing can still be carried out on the signals of the users in the subsequent operation, and the demodulation is continuously tried to be carried out. Thereby, the correct demodulation becomes possible, and the receiving performance is improved.
