Abstract:
An adaptive filter for processing a serial input signal, comprising:means for converting said serial input signal into a parallel input signal;means for effecting an adaptive filter algorithm on said parallel input signal, said parallel input signal having said adaptive filter algorithm effected thereon being a parallel output signal, said means including a single multiplier, a single adder and a single multiplier-accumulator with said parallel input signal provided to at least one of said single multiplier, adder and multiplier-accumulator, said single multiplier, adder and multiplier-accumulator being arranged functionally in a parallel arrangement with a common bus multiplexing between said single multiplier, adder and multiplier-accumulator, said means further receiving a desired response signal for convergence by said parallel output signal toward said desired response signal; andmeans for converting said parallel output signal into a serial output signal.
