Abstract
A receiver including an equalization component to receive a signal comprising a sequence of samples corresponding to symbols and generate an equalized signal with an estimated sequence of symbols corresponding to the signal. The receiver further includes a decision generation component to detect that an aggregate error level associated with the equalized signal exceeds a saturation threshold level. The decision generation component identifies a set of errors including a first error associated with a first symbol having a highest error level and a last error associated with a last symbol. The decision generation component generates, based on the equalized signal, a decision including a sequence of one or more bits that represent each symbol of a first subset of the sequence of symbols and a confidence level corresponding to the decision, where the confidence level is based at least in part on a distance between an error level of each symbol and a level of the first error.
