on second though for ami init onley one sample is required, with amplitued of 1/dt where dt is the sample_interval --- On Fri, 10/16/09, Walter Katz <wkatz@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Walter Katz <wkatz@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [ibis-macro] Re: questions about impulse and clock period in spec To: kumarchi@xxxxxxxxx, ibis-macro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, fangyi_rao@xxxxxxxxxxx Date: Friday, October 16, 2009, 8:04 AM Kumar, For robustness sake, can you please enumerate the values of an impulse response of an ideal channel in the form of a rectangle/triangle with area 1.

If the channel is perfect and its impulse response is a Dirac delta function, what impulse data should be input to AMI_Init, a pulse (e.g. rectangle or triangle) with area being 1, or a discrete data with 1 at t=0 and 0 at other time points? 2. Section 3.2.2.2 states that “It is to be assumed that the input data signal is sampled at exactly one half clock period after a clock time”. Does “clock period” mean one UI or the time between two neighboring clock times returned by GetWave? I’d appreciate it if anyone can provide me clarification. Thanks, Fangyi
