Abstract:
1. A transmitter for transmitting a transmission signal, the transmitter comprising: a processor; and a delay element, wherein the transmission signal contains a plurality of replicated coherent data signals, each of the plurality of replicated coherent data signals carrying the same data, and wherein: the processor is configured to separate the transmission signals into the plurality of replicated coherent signals; the delay element is configured to introduce a relative delay between one of the replicated coherent signals and another of the replicated coherent signals, wherein the transmission signal comprises upper and lower channel signals and the delay element is configured to introduce the relative delay into the upper channel signal or the lower channel signal; and the transmission signal is a 20 MHz duplicate mode transmission signal and the processor is configured to sample one of the coherent replicated signals of the transmission signal at a sampling rate of 40 MHz at integer multiples of 25 nanoseconds.
