Abstract
A method and apparatus for controlling and shaping the spectrum of transmitted signal samples having predetermined frequency characteristics and allowable transmit signal levels. A running measure of unwanted components is measured and, for each block of the transmitted samples, an objective function based on the previously calculated running measure is computed. Depending upon the measurements, redundancy is determined and selected for each block of the transmitted samples. Accordingly, at least one redundant sample may be added or, the sign of the sample modified, at structured or randomized locations within the block to optimize the objective function.
