Abstract
A method and a receiver for reducing adjacent-channel interference to a digitally modulated receive signal evaluates error rates of the receive signal associated with different receive bandwidths of the receive signal. The receiver selects a preferential bandwidth among the different bandwidths based on a suitably low error rate associated with the preferential bandwidth. The selection of the different bandwidths is achieved by digital signal processing that weighs desired data bits representing a desired bandwidth differently than rejected data bits representing a rejected bandwidth.
