Walter, This is much better now, except for some problems with English... If I may make a suggestion, I would write it this way: | Step 6b. If the Rx GetWave_Exist is False, the output of | Step 5 is convolved with the impulse response of the | Rx filter. The impulse response of the Rx Filter may | be obtained by deconvolving the input and output of | Step 3.

Arpad, Thank for making your concern clearer. You want to know how to get the "Rx Filter". | Step 6b. If the Rx GetWave_Exists is False. | The output of Step 5 is convolved with the Rx filter. | I suggest the following: | Step 6b. If the Rx GetWave_Exist is False. | The output of Step 5 is convolved with the impulse | response of the Rx filter. The impulse response of | the Rx filter can be determined by using deconvolution | on the input and output of step 3.

Scott, Walter, Aside from your valid comments, I think we need to keep in mind that Walter wrote the suggested text for a reason you may not be aware of. This suggested change seems to be an attempt to address my first comment I wrote about the flow BIRD draft on August 16 (see below). I was commenting that we shouldn't say "convolved with the Rx filter" in the AMI specification without at least giving some hints to the reader what this "Rx filter" really is or how it can be obtained, or where it is available in the flow. It seems that this recent suggestion attempts to introduce some terminology in the General Assumptions section of the specification so that later in the flow section the text could refer to it by using the words "convolved with the impulse response of the filter" instead of "convolved with the Rx filter". In my opinion, this change doesn't really address the main problem I was having with the text of the flow BIRD. Whether we say "Rx filter" or "impulse response of the filter" is irrelevant. The issue is that the flow doesn't have a "node" (so to speak) where this data is available. This data has to be derived somehow from other data. This and how this could be done is not mentioned in the BIRD, and this was my complaint. This latest wordsmithing doesn't address that problem.
