摘要:
A system and method for minimizing the effective channel impulse response in multitone communication systems, is provided. A time domain equalizer is utilized to shorten the channel impulse response to a length equal to or less than the time duration of the cyclic prefix. The time domain equalizer includes an adaptable filter with updateable coefficients. The updateable coefficients are calculated in a storage efficient manner to effectively estimate a desirable channel response. Processing of the time domain equalizer signal improves the symbol boundary estimate and effectively reduces the effect of noise of the updateable coefficient solution.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for frequency domain equalization. The method and apparatus are particularly well suited for use in a receiver in a multicarrier transmission system that has predetermined symbols periodically embedded in the transmissions, such as in an ADSL system. The equalizer apparatus includes a digital filter having a plurality of single-tap filters. The filters operate on the symbols in the frequency domain, accepting frequency domain representations of the received symbols. The equalizer also includes a reference symbol generator that provides reference symbols, a coefficient generator that accepts the equalized frequency domain symbols from the digital filter and the reference symbols and updates the filter taps using a received predetermined symbol and the reference symbol. The coefficient generator includes a generator filter having a first and a second adaptation increment, an error generator, and a threshold detector that controls the coefficient generator in response to said error signal. Preferably, the threshold detector determines whether the equalizer output would have been decoded improperly during a synchronization symbol, and if so, enables the use of the second update increment in the generator filter.
摘要:
A method and structure that reduces the computational requirements of both echo cancellation and time domain equalization in symmetrical transceivers. The structure exploits pole-zero modeling of both the echo and transmission path response in order to realize an improved level of system performance with shorter filters than would be required with direct FIR modeling.
