Whitening of data-dependent, non-stationary noise in an inter-symbol interference channel detector

摘要

A decoder includes cascaded lattice filters that receive encoded data and include adaptive inputs and output taps. A tap control couples a selected output tap to a viterbi input as a function of a viterbi output. A noise adaptation circuit provides adjustment to the adaptive inputs as a function of the viterbi output to whiten non-stationary noise that is received with the encoded data.
