Filter Configuration Parameters follow:
FFE:
1.
The tap delay is expressed as an integer fraction of the bit period.
2.
Select the number of taps
3.
Tap coefficients: enter the different tap coefficients separated by commas, from tap
0 to tap N.
4.
Normalize: This would normalize the filter taps ensuring unity gain. Note that if taps
were generated automatically, they would already be normalized (sum = 1).
DFE:
1.
With DFE, tap delay is always fixed to 1 tap per bit.
2.
Tap coefficients: Enter the different tap coefficients separated by commas, ranging
from tap 0 to tap N.
3.
Delay value, given in picoseconds, allows users to change the decision point of the DFE
slicer. This value must range from the negative bit period/2 (-T
b
/2) to the positive bit
period/2 (+T
b
/2) of the DFE Filter; this delay defines a shift magnitude from the center
of the unit interval.
