Abstract

See full text

In a vectored Discrete Multi-Tone (DMT) system that employs trellis encoding, tones of a DMT signal are paired by a trellis encoder, and parity information is shared between the paired tones. In accordance with some embodiments, the tones are paired based on an interpolation pattern that is used to calculate vectoring coefficients in an effort to mitigate interpolation error. Specifically, a tone having a vectoring coefficient with a relatively large interpolation error may be paired with a tone having a vectoring coefficient with a relatively small interpolation error thereby reducing the peak interpolation error among paired tones within the system. By reducing the peak interpolation error in the paired tones, the number of communication lines included in a vectoring group can be increased without significantly degrading signal quality.
