The impulse response of a prefilter used with a DFSE equalizer in a receiver system is computed. A channel estimate is determined in response to signals received by the receiver system. The channel estimate may include a forward channel estimate and a backward channel estimate. Roots of a z-transform of the forward channel estimate and roots of a z-transform of the backward channel estimate are determined. Those roots of the z-transform of the forward channel estimate having a magnitude greater than one are used to form a z-transform of a forward impulse response of the prefilter while those roots of the z-transform of the backward channel estimate having a magnitude greater than one are used to form a z-transform of a backward impulse response of the prefilter. Forward prefilter coefficients for the prefilter are computed based on the z-transform of the forward impulse response of the prefilter and backward prefilter coefficients for the prefilter are computed based on the z-transform of the backward impulse response of the prefilter. A forward impulse response of a forward composite channel are computed based on the forward prefilter coefficients while a backward impulse response of a backward composite channel are computed based on the backward prefilter coefficients. |
