An adjustable K-factor-improvement (KFI) filter having a sparse kernel composed of non-zero weighting coefficients of substantially equal amplitudes is included in a receiver for digital television signals or the like. The receiver includes apparatus for measuring the channel impulse response (CIR) or cepstrum of the signal as received. The respective polarities of the non-zero weighting coefficients in the sparse kernel of the adjustable KFI filter are adjusted responsive to the measured CIR. The differential delay between each successive pair of non-zero weighting coefficients in the sparse kernel of the adjustable K-factor-improvement filter is adjusted responsive to the measured CIR. The adjustment is such that the KFI filter response has a principal component with substantially more energy than any of its echo components. The KFI filter response is applied as input signal to subsequent adaptive equalization filtering in the receiver.
