Abstract

See full text

A multi-input, multi-output pre-filter improves operation of a multi-input receiver by shortening the effective memory of the channel with a set of FIR filters. The coefficients of these FIR filters can be fashioned to provide a variety of controls by the designer, for example, the value of the effective memory.
