Abstract
An adaptive analog parallel combiner circuit for receiver data recovery from a communication signal is provided. The circuit includes a summer that sums outputs of a plurality of filter taps in parallel, including zeroth and first through Nth filter taps, each filter tap having as input the communication signal or a version thereof, wherein N is a finite integer greater than or equal to two. The zeroth filter tap has an amplifier with gain controlled by a zeroth adaptive gain control coefficient, and each of the first through Nth filter taps having an all pass filter and gain controlled amplification, with gain controlled by a corresponding one of a first through Nth adaptive gain control coefficients and the all pass filter implementing a transfer function having a zero and a pole equaling each other and at a base frequency divided by a corresponding integer from one through N.
