Abstract

A method for transmitting a sequence of data blocks of equal length includes obtaining part of a matrix for the impulse response function of a communication channel between a transmitter and a receiver. The part relating to channel-induced interference between sampling intervals of adjacent ones of the data blocks. The method includes designing a set of one or more linearly independent waveforms based on the obtained part of the matrix for the impulse response function and transmitting a sequence of the data blocks over the channel from the transmitter to the receiver. Each data block of the sequence is a weighted linear superposition of the one or more waveforms of the designed set.
