SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SELECTING PARAMETERS FOR COMPRESSING COEFFICIENTS FOR NODESCALE VECTORING

摘要

In general, the present invention relates to methods and systems for optimizing the precoder coefficient compression parameters for reducing the storage and other demands on a vectored DSL system. Embodiments of the invention can be implemented in conjunction with various existing coefficient compression techniques such as quantization of coefficients and decimation in frequencies. According to certain aspects, the compression parameters (e.g. Golomb modulus and quantization level) are selected for each of a plurality of macrobands so as to optimize the overall data rate of the system for any given channel condition. According to further aspects, the compression parameters are computed to ensure that the compressed coefficients for all macrobands do not exceed the available memory allocated for storing the coefficient data.
