摘要

The present invention relates to a precoder for a communication system arranged to provide transmission blocks for transmission over a transmission channel based on inputted symbol blocks. The precoder is arranged to pre-distort each symbol block based on an estimate of the characteristics of the transmission channel so that the corresponding transmission block appears to be undistorted after transmission over the transmission channel. In accordance therewith, the precoder is arranged to apply Tomlinson-Harashima precoding on a sum of a first measure corresponding to predistortion so as to remove intrasymbol interference and a second measure corresponding to predistortion so as to remove intersymbol interference. The present invention further relates to a method for providing transmission blocks for transmission over a transmission channel in a communication system.
