The local copy is matched with the undesired replica of the transmitted signal in the received signal, by adapting the received signal while retaining the local copy non-adaptive. An interference caused by the undesired replica to the desired signal is canceled, by subtracting the local copy from the adapted received signal.

Abstract: Many systems implement calibration schemes to measure and correct for the non-idealities. Such systems can be complex, which makes them impractical to implement since the cost can potentially outweigh the benefits of the calibration scheme. To implement efficient and effective calibration, non-idealities or errors of a system are detected, in foreground or in background, in a piecewise fashion based on, e.g., correlations of an output signal with an uncorrelated random signal, where the correlation results are processed separately for different open intervals of an error signal. Second order and third order correction terms can be easily determined based on three open intervals. In various embodiments, the calibration scheme can detect and correct for linear errors, (linear and non-linear) memory/frequency dependent errors, static nonlinearity errors, Hammerstein-style non-linearity errors, and Wiener-style non-linearity errors (cross-terms).

Abstract: A crosstalk emulator for a cable, preferably a xDSL telecommunication cable, represented by several emulation paths each comprising a first segment (L1a/L4a) serially connected to a second segment (L1b/L4b) on a printed circuit board PCB. The first and second segments of a same emulation path form an angle, e.g. of about 90 degrees, at their junction point. All the emulation paths have a same length and preferably run in parallel over the PCB. As a result, each emulation path crosses only once (X21) any other emulation path at a cross-point. Furthermore, the area occupied by the crosstalk emulator on the PCB is reduced with respect to a matrix topology, whereby the present topology can easily be extended to large numbers of couplings, allowing design guidance for a passive coupling emulator with a large amount of coupling elements (CP) at the cross-points.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of grouping transmitter-receiver pairs for communicating over a communications network. For each group of a set of groups of transmitter-receiver pairs, the pairs of the group execute an iterative interference alignment technique for I1 iterations on signals transmitted by the group.

A central unit calculates a global metric associated for each group on the basis of the metrics from the receivers of the group and selects from the set a group that optimizes the global metric.
