Abstract

See full text

An apparatus, method and system for reducing discontinuities between waveforms in a communication system. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a processor and memory including computer program code. The memory and the computer program code are configured, with the processor, to determine an amplitude and set of derivatives at an end point of a first symbol waveform, and determine an amplitude and set of derivatives at a beginning point of a second symbol waveform. The memory and the computer program code are configured, with the processor, to insert a guard period waveform having an amplitude and set of derivatives at a first end to substantially match the amplitude and set of derivatives at the end point of the first symbol waveform and an amplitude and set of derivatives at a second end that substantially matches the amplitude and set of derivatives at the beginning point of the second symbol waveform.
