hase Delay and Delay Disorion Consan ime delay resuls in linear phase delay and is desirable for disorionless ransmissions! See he ime delay propery of he Fourier Transform exp i f A consan phase shif is no linear in phase and resuls in significan signal disorion. See he following consan phase delay of 90 deg. Use an equalizer o fix he phase problems 7
