Abstract: A method for training a programmable transceiver is provided that includes scanning frequencies within a desired range for a first signal, and detecting the first signal at a first frequency. The method also includes computing harmonic frequencies and subharmonic frequencies of the first frequency, and scanning the harmonic frequencies and the subharmonic frequencies for a second signal at a second frequency. The method further includes comparing a first magnitude of the first signal to a second magnitude of the second signal. In addition, the method includes training the programmable transceiver based on the second signal if the second magnitude is greater than the first magnitude, otherwise training the programmable transceiver based on the first signal.
