RECEIVER AND AN ADAPTIVE EQUALIZER METHOD

摘要

An over-sample sampler 3 samples a received signal at a speed of not less than a symbol rate, and a received sequence output circuit 4 distributes the sampled signal sequence to sequences of different over-sample timing numbers. Thereafter, a plurality of blind equalizers with reliability information 5A, 5B and 5C receive the distributed signal sequences and perform an adaptive equalizer process so as to output decision data and reliability information. Finally, a decision data selecting circuit 6 receives plural pieces of reliability information and decision data and outputs decision data with the highest reliability as a decision value.
