Alternatively, other prior art techniques may compensate to some degree for certain forms of interference to enable limited suppression of corruption, and suffer from the disability of inter alia that channel characteristics are often imperfectly known. Recall that transmission corruption is introduced by unwanted channel noise, of which some causes are random (e.g. thermal noise, weather induced fading, etc) and others are predictable (such as ICI, and self-induced interference). One characterization of the effects of channel corruption is termed Channel Impulse Response (CIR). A CIR represents the effects on an “imaginary” impulse transmitted from one or more transmitters in a “vacuum”, and their corresponding measured incident response at the receiver antenna.
