ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are provided to enable an adaptation unit to be shared among a plurality of receivers. The adaptation unit provides compensation values to each receiver to enable each receiver to compensate for the pulse response effect experienced by that receiver. By sharing an adaptation unit among a plurality of receivers rather than having a dedicated adaptation unit for each receiver, the chip space needed is significantly reduced since the number of adaptation units that need to be implemented is significantly reduced. In addition, the fewer number of adaptation units leads to less power consumption during operation. Overall, the sharing of the adaptation unit enables greater efficiency and improved scalability to be achieved.
