1. A method for comparing communication links in a communication network, comprising:
obtaining first raw equalizer coefficients in a frequency domain, the first raw equalizer coefficients corresponding to a first communication link;
obtaining second raw equalizer coefficients in the frequency domain, the second raw equalizer coefficients corresponding to a second communication link;
removing time delay from the first raw equalizer coefficients to generate first corrected equalizer coefficients;
removing time delay from the second raw equalizer coefficients to generate second corrected equalizer coefficients; and
comparing the first corrected equalizer coefficients to the second corrected equalizer coefficients to determine a relationship between the first and second communication links.
