Abstract

Techniques are described to reduce delayed reflection inter-symbol interference (ISI) in signals. In some implementations, a channel reflection canceller is provided at a signal receiver to reduce delayed reflection ISI in received signals. The channel reflection canceller may be provided with a signal from an equalizer output or a tentative or final decision from a forward-error correction (FEC) decoder. Based on the signal from the equalizer output or tentative or final decisions from the FEC decoder, the channel reflection canceller may generate a signal to reduce delayed reflection ISI in received signals. In addition or as an alternative, in some implementations, the remote transmitter of the signal generates a delayed reflection ISI reducing signal to reduce delayed reflection ISI present in the signal transmitted over a channel. The transmitter may generate the delayed reflection ISI reducing signal using information provided by the remote signal receiver.
