Inversion of channel distortion by adaptive wavelet lifting
A method for inverting telecommunication channel distortion by adaptive wavelet lifting. The distortion signal is analyzed using wavelet lifting and the inverse filter is computed. Coefficients of the inverse filter are used to either compute a transmission pre-filter or to update the transmitted message.
1. An apparatus for correcting channel distortion of a known signal sent by a transmitter and received by a receiver, the apparatus comprising:
a transmitter filter bank for decomposing the message to be sent by the transmitter, the decomposition according to the filter bank, the decomposition comprising transmitter filter coefficients;
a novelty signal computation device for computing a novelty signal given the transmitted signal and the received signal;
a receiver filter bank for decomposing the novelty signal, the decomposition according to the receiver filter bank, the decomposition comprising receiver filter coefficients;
a novelty signal filter coefficient computation device for computing the inverse receiver filter coefficients that represent the novelty signal; and
a transmitter coefficient update device for updating the transmitter filter coefficients according to the inverse receiver filter coefficients representing the novelty signal;
whereby the channel distortion is corrected by the updated transmitter filter coefficients.
