Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for detecting sequences of symbols in a received signal in the presence of inter-symbol interference. Maximum Likelihood Sequence Detection (MLSD) is a known method for optimum detection of such sequences. To reduce the complexity of the MLSD, a Reduced-State Sequence Detection (RSSD) technique has been considered based on partitioning the states of the MLSD. In this approach, a simplified sequence detector is placed within a global decision feedback loop. The disclosed architecture shortens the feedback loop by moving the sequence detector outside the loop and converting the interaction between the two to a feed-forward manner. This is achieved through slicing the signal and closing a nested loop around the sliced bins. A further variant simplifies the detector even more by reducing the number of bins.
