CROSSTALK CANCELLATION CIRCUIT, TRANSMITTER, AND TRANSMISSION AND RECEPTION SYSTEM
An XTC circuit includes delay circuits, differentiated signal generating circuits, and an amplitude adjusting and adding circuit. A signal Da, which is one aggressor signal, is input to the differentiated signal generating circuit after being delayed by the delay circuit, and the differentiated signal generating circuit generates a differentiated signal having a differentiated waveform of the signal Da.
