  • Method for determining the filter coefficients of a digital time domain equalizer for a multicarrier frequency signal
    Patent number: 7173967
    Abstract: A vector space comprising all of the filter coefficients for different interfering signals is provided, based on an acquired impulse response. A linear vector sub-space comprising all of the optimal filter coefficients for different interfering signals is established from said vector space using a vector space optimization method. The filter coefficients are established from the vector sub-space according to the current interfering signal being detected, during ongoing data transmission and at the maximum transmission speed.

  • Method for determining the filter coefficients of a digital time domain equalizer for a multicarrier frequency signal
    Publication number: 20030151469
    Abstract: A vector space comprising all of the filter coefficients (heq, opt) for different interfering signals (w(n)) is provided, based on an acquired impulse response (hchan). A linear vector sub-space (popt) comprising all of the optimal filter coefficients (heq, opt) for different interfering signals (w(n)) is established from said vector space using a vector space optimization method. The filter coefficients (heq, opt) are established from the vector sub-space according to the current interfering signal (w(n)) being detected, during ongoing data transmission and at the maximum transmission speed.
