Abstract
An adaptive equalizer arrangement for digital transmission system comprises at the output of the transmission channel a first in-phase path and in parallel with this first path, a second quadrature path, both paths being of the non-recursive transversal filter type having n branches and (n-1) delay circuits between the inputs of these branches, each of these n branches comprising, arranged in series, a mixer, a low-pass filter, a multiplier, and having their outputs connected to an adder which is followed by a sampling circuit and thereafter by a comparator circuit to decide the symbols to be transmitted from the outputs of these paths. The arrangement also comprises a third control path which comprises two subtracting circuits to determine the differences between the signals before and after decision and a control circuit of a voltage-controlled oscillator, 2n phase shifters and 2n multipliers.
