Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices are described for tap adjustment and reseeding in a digital filter. Filter and signal characteristics are measured and tap adjustments and reseeding of tap values may be performed based on the filter and signal characteristics. Filter characteristics that may be measured include a filter center of mass which may provide an indication that filter taps for a filter may be drifting toward a filter edge and thus reducing the dynamic range of the filter. Signal characteristics may include a timing offset between received input signals, and characteristics related to which of a particular input signal is present at a filter output. Filter taps, according to various embodiments, may be adjusted, and/or re-initialized responsive to one or more of the signal or filter characteristics.
