Abstract
To estimate physical properties of a wired or wireless transmission channel it is proposed to sample a signal, received via the transmission channel, for example a system response of the corresponding transmission system, in order, on the basis of the sampled values thus obtained, to ascertain the moments of the order 0 . . . n of the received signal. Using these moments of the order 0 . . . n, n parameters of a transmission function of the transmission channel can be determined, wherein the parameters can be polynomial coefficients, zero points or coefficients of a residual notation of the transmission function. Using this transmission function the physical properties of the transmission channel, such as the attenuation and dispersion properties, can be determined exactly or at least approximately assessed.
