Equalizer apparatus (36), and an associated method, for equalizing a data sequence transmitted upon a communication channel (14) susceptible to distortion. The equalizer (36) equalizes a first portion of the sequence of data in a manner (46) which exhibits high levels of convergence, and the equalizer (36) is trained responsive to the equalization of the first portion of the sequence of data. Then, a second portion of the sequence of data is equalized pursuant to an equalization process (48) which exhibits a reduced level of computational complexity for its effectuation. Thereby, equalization is performed relatively quickly and also relatively accurately. |
