Abstract
A receiver device receives a signal via a communication channel, the signal (i) having been transmitted by a transmitter device, and (ii) corresponding to a pseudorandom bit sequence (PRBS). The receiver device correlates the received signal with a known signal to generate a correlation signal. The known signal includes the PRBS. The receiver device identifies one or more characteristics of the correlation signal, and determines one or more parameters of the communication channel using the identified one or more characteristics of the correlation signal. The receiver device i) uses the one or more parameters corresponding to the communication channel to process subsequent signals received via the communication channel, and/or ii) communicates the one or more parameters to the transmitter device to prompt the transmitter device to preprocess subsequent signals to be transmitted via the communication channel by the transmitter device.
