CHIP EQUALIZATION APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed is a chip equalization apparatus and method thereof, which selects some clusters with high signal power among broadcast signal clusters continuously received in multi-path channels to extract a plurality of cluster signals, equalizes each of the input cluster signals, and combines all equalization outputs again, thereby leading to low power consumption and efficient equalization. The chip equalization apparatus for use in a satellite broadcasting receiving system comprising: a cluster signal extracting part for extracting a plurality of cluster signals from received broadcast signals; and a plurality of chip equalizers receiving cluster signals from the cluster signal extracting part and updating tap coefficients to compensate the broadcast signals.
