Abstract
A method includes, by a detector, receiving from a low frequency equalizer a data signal and an error signal, matching a tail portion of the data signal to a tail portion of an extended filter-pattern, and, based upon the error signal at a given location of the data signal and upon the imbalance, producing an output signal indicating whether a long-term residual intersymbol interference of the data signal in the error signal has a positive sign or a negative sign. The tail portion of the extended filter-pattern includes an imbalance between a count of each of the possible values and an unfixed sequence. The data signal includes data points with one of at least two possible values.
