In spite of your "source," I think this should be an interesting
shootout if it does occur. The reason being, IIRC, the TS-COFDM scheme
uses a new training sequence sent instead of the GI, correct? So in
principle, this now works very much like their version of VSB.
Assuming they use the same, presumably perfectly designed training
sequence, for COFDM and for VSB, I'd be very curious indeed to see the
tradeoffs. Let's hope this is put to a real test, both urban and rural
settings.
