Abstract
A system and method for a high-speed transmitter comprising a precoder configured to receive a sequence of input symbols and to generate for each received symbol a respective recoded symbol is disclosed. The transmitter includes a recoding unit configured for recoding each current received PAM-M based on the recoded symbol immediately preceding the current recoded symbol at the recoding unit, a shift unit configured for determining a shift value for each current received symbol from the recoding unit based on the symbol received from the recoding unit and immediately preceding the current symbol at the shift unit; and Feed-Forward Equalizer unit for applying the shift values to the respective symbols received from the recoding unit to generate a corresponding sequence of output symbols to be transmitted in an output stream.
