Abstract

An X-DSL modem supporting multiple X-DSL line codes including discrete multi-tone (DMT) and carrierless phase and amplitude (CAP). The modem includes: components coupled to one another to form a transmit path and a receive path. The components include an encoder component and a Fourier transform component. The encoder component encodes data associated with a CAP communication channel into QAM symbols and encodes data associated with a DMT communication channel into DMT sub-symbols. The Fourier transform component couples to the encoder component on the transmit path for transforming DMT sub-symbols from a frequency-to-time domain and for transforming QAM symbols from the time-to-frequency domain followed by a filtering in the frequency domain and a subsequent transformation back from the frequency-to-time domain to effect a pulse shaping function without requiring a discrete pulse shaping component in the transmit path.
