Hi Vladimir,
Your Comment "After Tx INIT, you have an equalized IR, and this is sent to Rx
INIT. Rx may add its own equalization"
No after TX_INIT, I don't have equalized IR and IR after TX is exactly same as
channel IR (as GetWave don't modify IR)
And hence, RX Init_Return_Impulse works on channel IR (which is un-equalized
from TX), so DFE and CTLE will try to equalize channel IR (and not the TX
equalized channel IR).
Once quick experiment I did:
GetWave TX Model ------ > Channel ------ > Init_Return_Impulse RX Model
If I change TX De-Emphasis Value, CTLE and DFE on RX side stays at the same
value for all the simulations.

Darshan,
This is the case when the Rx's equalization effect should be separated from Tx
equalization.
After Tx INIT, you have an equalized IR, and this is sent to Rx INIT. Rx may
add its own equalization. However, since Tx also has GetWave which may apply
similar equalization to the input waveform, you need to "eliminate" Tx
equalization from the impulse response after it is updated by Rx. The idea is
that this IR should only contain equalization from Rx but not Tx (since we
don't have Rx GetWave but have Tx GetWave).
I don't know what is the tool you are using. The correct flow should be to find
the Rx equalization "filter" (i.e. an operator that creates Rx equalization)
and apply it to the original non-equalized IR. Then, use this IR for the bit by
bit analysis.
I believe this idea is described in 5.1 AMI flow.

Subject: [ibis-macro] Simulate with Init_Impuse_Return on RX and GetWave on TX
Hi,
I have case in which TX and RX are from different vendors.
RX is Impulse_Init_Return only (No GetWave Function is available) and TX is
GetWave only (No Init_impuse_Return is available).
When I run this simulation, IR of passive channel and analog models of TX and
RX is created. Let's call it IR1 (Let say IL of channel is 20dB, so IR1 is
impulse response of 20dB IL)
Let say TX is set to -6dB de-emphasis.
IR1 is send to GetWave of TX model which outputs waveform which is 6dB
de-emphasized.
But IR1 is not affected due to Getwave function of TX.
What I have seen in the simulation is this IR1 is also send to RX
Init_Impuse_Return function and RX Equalizer works on 20dB channel rather than
20dB + (-6dB de-Emphasis) channel. And hence I always get over-equalized
response in simulation.
What is solution to this?
Please help.
Thanks,
Darshan
