TONAL PRECODING IN MULTI-USER VECTORED DSL TRANSMISSION

摘要

Preceding mitigates or removes interference signals (especially crosstalk) among multiple users with interconnected transmitters in vectored DSL systems and the like. Efficient implementation is provided of the R matrix in RQ factorization that characterizes multi-user downstream vector channels (such as DMT VDSL one-sided or two-sided transmission channels) . A set of precoder coefficients can vary with each tone used by each user and depend upon the encoding order of users selected for each tone. In adaptive operation, the coefficients of the R and Q matrices can be updated when changes occur to the transmission environment . Variable modulo arithmetic mitigates the power-enhancement problem, and the base of the modular arithmetic also can vary with each user within a single tone.
