The present invention relates to a method for automatic gain control (AGC) before an initial synchronization of a mobile station modem in OFDM system, and an apparatus thereof. The AGC apparatus includes: an initial synchronization inspector that verifies whether an initial synchronization for an input block sample (k) signal has been performed; a frame divider that divides a frame into predetermined intervals B(k) for the input block sample(k) signal in the case that the initial synchronization has not been performed; a reference value inspector that compares a difference value Pref−Pcalc, between a predetermined reference value Pref and sample data average energy Pcalc, with a predetermined value; a count controller that increases or decreases the count when the difference value Pref−Pcalc compared by the reference value inspector is greater or less than the predetermined value; a count inspector that inspects whether the count is greater or less than 0 when the input block sample (k) reaches a maximum value MAX; and a gain controller which increases or decreases the gain, level by level, according to the count inspection result of the count inspector.

The invention claimed is: 1. An apparatus for automatic gain control (AGC) of a mobile station in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system, comprising; an initial synchronization inspector that determines whether an initial synchronization for an input block sample signal (k) has been performed; a frame divider that divides a frame into predetermined intervals B(k) for the input block sample (k) signal when the initial synchronization has not been performed; a reference value inspector that compares a difference value Pref−Pcalc, between a predetermined reference value Pref and sample data average energy Pcalc, with a predetermined value; a count controller that increases or decreases a count when the difference value Pref−Pcalc is greater or less than the predetermined value; a count inspector which inspects whether the count is greater or less than 0 when the input block sample (k) has reached a maximum value MAX; and a gain controller which increases or decreases the gain, level by level, according to the count inspection result of the count inspector. 2. The apparatus for AGC of claim 1, wherein the apparatus starts AGC at an arbitrary point among the divided predetermined intervals B(k) by using an engine that is used after the initial synchronization when the initial synchronization has not been performed. 3. The apparatus for AGC of claim 1, wherein the gain controller operates the engine for AGC in each interval and performs AGC for each frame, level by level, according to the number of times in which signal intensity exceeds a threshold during a frame in the case that the initial synchronization has not been performed. 4. The apparatus for AGC of claim 1, wherein the count controller increases the count by one when the difference value Pref−Pcalc is less than the predetermined value. 5. The apparatus for AGC of claim 3, wherein the predetermined value is given to be 3dB. 6. The apparatus for AGC of claim 1, wherein the gain controller decreases the gain by one level when the count is greater than 0. 7. The apparatus for AGC of claim 1, wherein the gain controller increases the gain by one level when the count is less than 0. 8. A method for automatic gain control (AGC) of a mobile station in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system, comprising; a) inspecting whether an initial synchronization has been performed for an input block sample (k) signal; b) dividing a frame into predetermined intervals B(k) for the input block sample(k) signal in the case that the initial synchronization has not been performed; c) comparing a difference value Pref−Pcalc, between a predetermined reference value Pref and a sample data average energy Pcalc, with a predetermined value; d) increasing or decreasing a count when the compared difference value Pref−Pcalc is greater or less than the predetermined value; e) inspecting whether the count is greater or less than 0 when the input block sample (k) has reached a maximum value MAX; f) decreasing the gain by one level when the count inspection result of the count inspector is greater than 0; and g) increasing the gain by one level when the count inspection result of the count inspector is less than 0. 9.

The method for AGC of claim 8, wherein a) comprises: operating the engine for AGC in each interval and performs AGC for each frame, level by level, according to the number of times in which signal intensity exceeds a threshold during a frame in the case that the initial synchronization has not been performed. 11. The method for AGC of claim 8, wherein in the a), the input block sample (k) signal is a signal of which the gain is initialized to a middle value when power is applied. 12. The method for AGC of claim 8, wherein a) comprises: dividing a frame of the input block sample (k) signal into the predetermined intervals B(k) and starting AGC at an arbitrary interval among the predetermined intervals. 13. The method for AGC of claim 8, wherein the c) further comprises; c-1) initializing the input block sample (k) and the count parameter; c-2) calculating the average energy Pcalc of the block and increasing k by one; c-3) inspecting whether the difference value Pref−Pcalc, between the reference value Pref and the calculated average energy Pcalc, is greater or less than the predetermined value. 14. The method for AGC of claim 13, wherein c-3) comprises: returning to c-2) when the difference value Pref−Pcalc is greater than the predetermined value, and calculating the average energy of the next block and again inspecting whether the difference value Pref−Pcalc is greater or less than the predetermined value. 15. The method for AGC of claim 8, wherein d) comprises: increasing the count parameter by one when the difference value Pref−Pcalc is less than the predetermined value. 16. The method for AGC of claim 8, wherein e) comprises: calculating the average energy of the next block and inspects whether the difference value Pref−Pcalc is greater or less than the predetermined value when the parameter k has not reached the maximum value MAX.
