This is the Phase 1 report for Preamble Assisted Equalization for Aeronautical Telemetry (PAQ).

Executive Summary:

To fully leverage the benefits of a periodically inserted preamble, the preamble is used to estimate the state of the channel. To this end the following algorithms have been developed, tested in simulation, and ported to the GPU-based real-time system:

1. The preamble detector, which scans the received samples searching for the presence of the preamble. The location of the preamble in the received samples is required to use the received samples to estimate the frequency offset, channel impulse response, and noise variance. The …
