Abstract
Abstract A cochannel interference filter for a HDTV transmission system comprising a post-comb filter. The post-comb filter comprises first and second feedforward circuits. The first feedforward circuit includes a first adder and a first delay circuit. The first adder has a first input connected to an output of a data clock recovery circuit. The first delay circuit has an input connected to the output of the data clock recovery circuit and an output connected to a second input of the first adder. The second feedforward circuit includes a second adder and a second delay circuit. The second adder has a first input connected to an output of the first adder. The second delay circuit has an input connected to the output of the first adder and an output connected to a second input of the second adder. Also, the post-comb filter comprises third and fourth feedforward circuits. The third feedforward circuit includes a third adder and a third delay circuit. The third adder has a first input connected to an output of the second adder. The third delay circuit has an input connected to the output of the second adder and an output connected to a second input of the third adder. Similarly, the fourth feedforward circuit includes a fourth adder and a fourth delay circuit.
