Re: [10GBT] THP Fixed Set TF



Hi Pedro and fellow 10GBASE-T-ers,

please note that the receive filter has two purposes: (1) attenuate the
received signal at frequencies beyond 1/2T in order to suppress out-of-band
noise and minimize the effect of sampling-phase dependent aliasing, and (2)
support the T-spaced FFE in its task of shaping the received signal towards
the target symbol response (=TH precoding polynomial).

The spectral shape of the receive filter has **no** influence on the optimum
target response to be employed for TH precoding (if one ignores effects of
sampling-phase dependent aliasing). The optimum target response  is
determined by the spectral signal-to-noise function SNR(f) of the received
signal. Ideally, the receive filter does not change the SNR(f) function.

Regards,

Gottfried

Hi Albert,


So far several precoder proposals have been presented: one is your proposal
and another one is Ungerboeck's.

They assume different Rx Architectures, namely analog high pass boosting is
used in yours but not in Ungerboeck's. I think we need to assess the
performance loss of your precoders with a receiver that does no boosting and
the performance of Ungerboeck precoders with a receiver that includes
boosting.

This will show if setting the precoder coefficients limits the options for
Rx implementation in which case we should consider making the precoder
programmable.

Regards,

Pedro

Pedro,

I did not use the Rx filter you mentioned below primarily due to aliasing
associated with its not very steep roll-off.
(Also pointed by Gottfried during Nov meeting.)

Albert
