Described is an apparatus which comprises: an amplifier; and a passive continuous-time linear equalizer integrated with a baseline wander (BLW) corrector, wherein the integrated equalizer and BLW corrector is coupled to the amplifier.

An electronic device and method for signal detection in a wireless communication system is provided. The electronic device includes a receiving unit configured to receive a radio frequency (RF) signal, a control unit configured to process the received signal, wherein processing the received signal comprises canceling a signal corresponding to a first stage in the received signal, detecting a signal corresponding to a second stage by applying lattice reduction, and determining a final detected signal by combining the detected signal corresponding to the second stage with candidates of the signal corresponding to the first stage.

Described is an apparatus which comprises: an amplifier; and a passive continuous-time linear equalizer integrated with a baseline wander (BLW) corrector, wherein the integrated equalizer and BLW corrector is coupled to the amplifier.

A receiver is equipped with an adaptive phase-offset controller and associated timing-calibration circuitry that together shift the timing for a data sampler and a digital equalizer. The sample and equalizer timing is shifted to a position with less residual inter-symbol interference (ISI) energy relative to the current symbol. The shifted position may be calculated using a measure of signal quality, such as a receiver bit-error rate or a comparison of filter-tap values, to optimize the timing of data recovery.

A method for sending and receiving a signal is disclosed, and a corresponding device and system. The method includes performing constellation mapping on a data stream to obtain a mapped signal, and performing pre-filtering on the mapped signal to convert the mapped signal into a narrowband signal filtered signal. The pre-filtering is finite impulse response filtering. A bandwidth of the narrowband signal filtered signal is less than bandwidth of the mapped signal, and the narrowband signal filtered signal is a baud rate signal. The method also includes performing waveform forming according to the narrowband signal filtered signal to obtain a shaped signal, and performing digital-to-analog conversion on the shaped signal to convert a shaped second signal into an analog signal, and sending the analog signal.
