Abstract
Transmission techniques suitable for use in digital subscriber line (DSL) systems such as very high rate digital subscriber line (VDSL) systems are described. One embodiment of the present invention describes a transmission technique related to OFDM from high-speed transmission over twisted-pair cables. The scheme, also known as filtered multitone modulation (FMT), exhibits significantly lower spectral overlapping between adjacent subchannels and provides higher transmission efficiency than discrete multitone modulation (DMT).
