Abstract
A physical layer transceiver for connecting a host device to a wireline channel medium includes a host interface for coupling to the host device, a line interface for coupling to the channel medium, a transmit path operatively coupled to the host interface and the line interface, a receive path operatively coupled to the line interface and the host interface, and adaptive filter circuitry operatively coupled to at least one of the transmit path and the receive path for filtering signals on the at least one of the transmit path and the receive path, the adaptive filter circuitry including a non-linear equalizer. The non-linear equalizer may be a neural network equalizer based on a multi-layer perceptron or a radial-basis function, or may be a linear equalizer with a non-linear activation function. The non-linear equalizer also may have a front-end filter to reduce input complexity.
