Abstract
In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises an adaptive filter, a timing recovery unit, and a reverse interpolation filter. The adaptive filter has adaptive filter coefficients that are adjusted based on a first error signal at a first sample rate and filters a first signal at the first sample rate to obtain a second signal at the first sample rate. The timing recovery unit interpolates the second signal at the first sample rate to obtain a third signal at a second sample rate; and estimates a partial response signal at the second sample rate corresponding to the third signal. The a reverse interpolation filter interpolates a second error signal at the first sample rate, which is a difference between the third signal and the partial response signal, to obtain the first error signal at the first sample rate for feeding back to the adaptive filter.
