Abstract

A new detection system that improves the detection signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio of a digital communication system suffering from intersymbol interference is described. The detection system utilizes the sample power contained in the intersymbol interference created by the dispersive nature of the communication channel. Significant SNR advantages over more commonly used decision-feedback equalizers (DFE) and linear equalizers are realized.
