Abstract

See full text

The invention is related to a method and circuit arrangement for compensating for delayed components of a received transmission signal especially in a digital transmission system based on physical lines. The method and arrangement utilize a decision feedback equalizer, wherein the weighted sum of decisions based on earlier samples is subtracted from a sample. According to the invention, delayed components in the signal are measured in a measuring unit (11). The earlier decisions to be subtracted from a signal sample are selected from a predetermined group of consecutive decisions, and the strength of the delay component in the delay between each decision and the signal sample is used as a selection criterion. Advantageously, the equalizer according to the invention includes a selector (8) which connects some of the taps of the delay line (7) to multiplier units (9). By means of this method and arrangement it is possible to implement with a small number of multiplier units an equalizer capable of compensating for delayed components with long delays.
