Abstract
A discrete loading algorithm maximizes data rate or system performance margin for discrete multitone (DMT) transmission. A preliminary bit assignment for each subchannel is first obtained by optimizing a DMT system with an available bandwidth. The subchannels that receive negative bit assignments are then excluded for further optimization until all the bit assignments are positive. The bit assignment of each subchannel is rounded and a corresponding rounding error is calculated. If the total bit number of the bit assignments are greater than the available bandwidth, the bit assignment of the subchannel having the least rounding error is decreased by one bit. If the total bit number of the bit assignments are smaller than the available bandwidth, the bit assignment of the subchannel having the largest rounding error is increased by one bit.
