Abstract
A communications system receives a modulated signal that carries encoded communications data. An adaptive filter has a plurality of non-adaptive and adaptive filter taps with weighted coefficients and a tap order selection circuit for selecting the number and order of adaptive filter taps based on one of at least measured output power from the adaptive filter and signal modulation. A demodulator and decoder receives the filtered output signal and demodulates and decodes the signal to obtain the communications data.
