First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of managing a symbol, represented by a plurality of samples over a symbol time period, in a digital communications system, the method comprising:
- causing, in a processing unit, a first subset of the plurality of samples corresponding to beginning and end portions of the symbol to be supplied to a filter engine; and
causing, in the processing unit, a second subset of the plurality of samples of the symbol corresponding to a middle portion of the symbol to be bypassed around the filter engine.
