| 20080267266 | Pre-Equalization Apparatus and Method for Reducing Time Delay in On-Channel Repeater - Provided is a pre-equalization apparatus and method that can reduce time delay of an on-channel repeater. The pre-equalization apparatus reduces time delay in an on-channel repeater by generating modified filter coefficient from a given filter coefficient and a pre-equalization filter coefficient after an up-sampling process and filtering up-sampled signals. The pre-equalization apparatus includes: a baseband signal generating unit for forming a baseband signal by combining an inputted signal, field sync signal, and segment sync signal; a pilot adding unit for adding a pilot signal to the baseband signal; an up-sampling unit for up-sampling the baseband signal having the pilot signal; a pre-equalization filter coefficient generating unit for generating a pre-equalization filter coefficient; a modified filter coefficient generating unit for generating a modified filter coefficient by using the pre-equalization filter coefficient and a given filter coefficient; and a filtering unit for filtering the up-sampled signal by using the modified filter coefficient. | 10-30-2008 |
