Method and device for data processing
View Patent ↗A method and a device for data processing. The data processing method utilizes at least two probing coefficients in a canceller and/or precompensator in combination with SNR feedback to process data in the canceller and/or in the precompensator.
1. A method for adjusting at least one of a canceller and a precompensator for data processing in a point-to-multipoint scenario, wherein the data being processed includes a discrete multitone (DMT)-based multicarrier modulation, the method comprising:
providing a set of predefined probing matrices having complex value probing coefficients to at least one of the canceller and the precompensator, the probing coefficients having a constant magnitude over a whole set of probing matrices and a phase varying over the set of probing matrices; and
utilizing respective probing matrices in at least one of the canceller and the precompensator in combination with signal-to-noise (SNR) feedback.
2. The method according to claim 1 , which comprises utilizing each probing matrix and the SNR feedback via a coefficient modulation.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the SNR feedback is data provided by a receiver via a feedback channel.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the precompensator is associated with at least one of a central office or a digital subscriber line access multiplexer.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the canceller is associated with a customer premises equipment.
6. The method according to claim 1 , which comprises applying the data processing to a digital subscriber line environment.
7. The method according to claim 1 , which comprises carrying out the method steps during a training phase of a modem.
8. The method according to claim 1 , which comprises switching to a tracking mode by super-positioning an already estimated optimized canceller and/or precompensator and by a small probing component.
9. A data processing device, configured to execute thereon the method according to claim 1 .
10. The device according to claim 9 , configured as a communication device.
11. The device according to claim 10 , wherein the communication device is selected from the group consisting of a central office, a digital subscriber line access multiplexer, and a customer premises equipment.
