ABSTRACT:
A configurable receiver and a method for configuring a receiver, the method includes: (i) evaluating multiple nonzero taps allocations, wherein each nonzero taps allocation evaluation includes: (i.a) allocating nonzero taps between multiple sparse equalizers, wherein different sparse equalizers are expected to equalize signals transmitted over different channels; wherein each channel is associated with an information source out of multiple information sources and with a receiving antenna out of multiple receiving antennas; wherein the number of nonzero taps is bounded by a upper limit; and (i.b) calculating multiple channel reception parameters of the multiple channels in response to the nonzero taps allocation; and (ii) configuring the receiver in response to a comparison between reception parameters obtained during different nonzero taps allocations.
