During normal operation frequency response curve is smooth and the only equalizer tap towers are in
the centre of equalizer taps graph, otherwise frequency response curve will appear jagged and many
equalizer taps will become visible. The latter case most probably will indicate to multipath issue, which
must be inspected with use of precise and accurate path profiling. An example of multipath caused
equalization is shown on the picture below. Taps mainly on the right side designate a weaker reflected
signal in comparison with the main signal.
