Method and apparatus for a RADSL transceiver warm start activation procedure with precoding
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for providing a shortened warm-start training sequence for a transceiver that is communicating data with another transceiver, comprising the steps of:
- processing a request to enter a standby mode,saving the state of a precoder at a transmitter;
saving the state of an equalizer at a receiver;
receiving a request to exit the standby mode and resume data transmission;
restoring the saved precoder state to the precoder;
restoring the saved equalizer state to the equalizer;
performing a shortened training sequence to ascertain the correct phase of a communication channel; and
adjusting the equalizer accordingly.

Abstract
A DSL communication device wherein the state of component coefficients are saved in a memory of a DSL device so that at a later time, the DSL device may initiate a warm start activation sequence wherein the last known channel parameters are used to train the equalizer, significantly reducing the amount of equalizer training required by eliminating the requirement that the aforementioned coefficients be transferred between DSL devices.
