When a fixed free-running crystal is used for sampling time generation at a DMT receiver, Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) and Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI) are introduced by sampling time error. The ICI becomes more serious as the DMT symbol length increases. In this letter, the effects of sampling clock offset are investigated in the time domain using a new notion of Inter-sample Interference (IsI) instead of ISI and ICI. Based on the IsI analysis, we propose a new frequency domain timing error correction scheme.
In this letter, we propose a low-complexity estimation method of cyclic-prefix (CP) length for a discrete multitone (DMT) very high-speed digital subscriber line (VDSL) system. Using the sign bits of the received DMT VDSL signals, the proposed method provides a good estimate of CP length, which is suitable for various channel characteristics. This simple estimation method is consistent with the initialization procedure of T1E1.4 multi-carrier modulation (MCM)-based VDSL Standard. Finally, simulation results with VDSL test loops are presented.

In this paper a digital frequency domain RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) cancellation scheme for DMT (Discrete Multitone) based VDSL (Very high speed Digital Subscriber Line) systems is presented. The proposed algorithm has been optimized and characterized in terms of complexity and performance. Optimizations were also performed from an implementation point of view by deducing key dependencies among our RFI model coefficients that let us drastically reduce the size of the memories involved. System simulations showed the effectiveness of the canceller: in terms of VDSL performance parameters such as bit rate, the optimized cancellation scheme recovers almost totally the performance degradation due to RFI.

This letter is concerned with a new algorithm which can be used to design a time-domain equalizer (TEQ) for xDSL systems employing the discrete multitone (DMT) modulation. The proposed algorithm, derived by neglecting the terms which do not affect the performance of a DMT system in ARMA modeling, is shown to have a good performance compared with the previous TEQ algorithms even with a significantly lower computational complexity. In addition, the proposed algorithm does not require the channel impulse response or training sequence, since all processing is made only with the received data.
