ADAPTIVE EQUALIZER SYSTEM FOR SHORT BURST MODEMS AND LINK HOPPING RADIO NETWORKS

摘要

A method for an adaptive equalization apparatus (500) in a multiple-link hopping radio system includes hopping among a plurality of radio links to receive variable-length bursts of radio signals on the plurality of radio links and equalizing amplitude and phase variations of a slow channel for each radio link from a received burst on the radio link. Further, the method includes storing the estimated tap coefficients pertinent to each radio link and using the tap weights of the current burst of the radio link to reliably pre-compensate the channel amplitude and phase distortion of a next received burst on the radio link.
