Abstract
A communications receiver receives a signal which has not been filtered by a matched pulse shaping filter. In the receiver, a circuit element processes the received signal and as a part of that process introduces additional linear distortion into the processed received signal. A matched filter, coupled to the circuit element, generates a fully matched filtered signal compensated for the distortion intrinsic to the received signal pulse shape and the distortion introduced by the circuit element.
