Abstract: A system, computer readable medium, and method are provided for training a serial communication link to perform crosstalk cancellation. The method includes the steps of, for each crosstalk channel of one or more crosstalk channels, transmitting a training sequence over a crosstalk channel, estimating a phase offset associated with the crosstalk channel, and selecting a set of symbol response coefficients. The method further includes steps for configuring the serial communication link to perform crosstalk cancellation utilizing the selected set of symbol response coefficients and, for each crosstalk channel, updating the selected set of symbol response coefficients every number of Baud durations corresponding to the crosstalk channel.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining effective tap values for a digital filter. A first plurality of vectors is generated, wherein each of the first plurality of vectors represents a set of tap values for the filter at a first resolution. A best vector is selected from the first plurality of vectors according to a first performance metric. A second plurality of vectors is generated within a threshold distance of the selected best vector, wherein each of the second plurality of vectors represents a set of tap values for the filter at a second resolution that is superior to the first resolution. A best vector is selected from the second plurality of vectors according to a second performance metric.

Abstract: System and method for canceling crosstalk in high-speed communications systems. An embodiment comprises precomputing channel pulse responses for a set of communications channels in a communications backplane, precomputing channel signal responses for the set of communications channels in the backplane with a training sequence, estimating noise coefficients using receiver training and the training sequence, storing noise coefficients for each communications channel in the set of communications channels, and canceling noise in a received transmission of a data sequence using the stored noise coefficients. The regularity of the communications backplane enables the precomputing of various values, which reduces computational requirements. Furthermore, it is often the case that a victim receiver has access to the digital data that is being transmitted by its dominant crosstalking transmitters, thereby simplifying noise cancellation.

Abstract: By using switches (110) that are synchronously controlled, the present invention permits connection of a plurality of antennae (130) to a plurality of radio front end units (radios 120) so that at any time any of the radios (120) may be assigned to any of the antennae (130) without leaving any radio (120) unconnected. A controller (140) arbitrarily assigns, at any time, any of the radios (120) to any of the antennae (130) while keeping every radio (120) connected to an antenna (130).
