ABSTRACT:
A digitally controlled programmable transversal filter (DCPTF) employing a lithium niobate surface acoustic wave (SAW) delay line and two large scale integration (LSI) gallium arsenide integrated circuits to digitally control the magnitude and sign of the 32 tap weights from the delay line. The DCPTF results in a significant reduction in size over the prior art with little sacrifice in performance. The DCPTF is completely programmable and is constrained only by the bandwidth and the number of taps.
