ALTERING TRAINING TIME OR STEP SIZE OF AN EQUALIZER AS FUNCTION OF CHANNEL CONDITIONS

摘要

Systems, devices, and methods are described for acquiring a wireless signal including a number of time-multiplexed bursts of data. An allocated training time may be dynamically adjusted to acquire a wireless signal and capture one of the bursts of data. The adjustmentmay depend upon the signal-to-noise ratio, the rate of change of the channel, the length of previous training times, or the time between bursts. Initial equalizer filter coefficients may be established for bursts of data based on previous filter coefficients. The step size used to adapt an initial filter coefficient may also be modified to account for signal-to-noise ratio, the rate of change of the channel or the time between bursts.
