Abstract
A transmission apparatus includes a connector that couples a signal path to a receiver, an equalizer that performs an equalization operation on received signals to be input to the receiver via the connector, a controller that calculates a coefficient controlling an operation of the equalizer and sets the coefficient in the equalizer, and a detector that detects a mating fault of the signal path in the connector in response to the coefficient configured by the controller.
Claims6
A transmission apparatus comprising:
- a connector that couples a signal path to a receiver;
- an equalizer that performs an equalization operation on received signals to be input to the receiver via the connector;
- a controller that calculates a tap coefficient controlling an operation of the equalizer and sets the tap coefficient in the equalizer;
- a comparator that compares the calculated tap coefficient with an initial tap coefficient at an initial state;
- and
- a detector that detects a mating fault of the signal path in the connector by comparing the comparison result outputted from the comparator with an acceptability standard permissible value.
