Search for: [Description = "This paper addresses the joint design of transmitter and receiver for multichannel data transmission over dispersive channels. The transmitter is assumed to consist of FIR filters and the channel impulse response is allowed to have an arbitrary length. The design criterion is the maximization of the information rate between transmitter input and receiver output under the constraint of a fixed transmit power. A link to minimum mean squared error designs for a similar setting is established. The proposed algorithm allows a straightforward transmitter design and generally yields a near\-optimum solution for the transmit filters. Under certain conditions, the exact solution for the globally optimal transmitter is obtained."]
