The authors consider enhancing the performance of the traditional linear partial-response
(PR) equalizer by using noise prediction techniques. The resulting noise-predictive PR …

The minimum mean-squared-error decision-feedback equalizer (MMSE-DFE) has properties
that suggest that it is a canonical equalization structure for systems that combine …

Supplementing their traditional view as a signalling or coding method, this paper elaborates
a reception perspective of partial response techniques. It treats the data equalization …

It is shown that the sensitivity of the performance of least mean-square error (LMS)
equalizers to the sampler phase is a function of equalizer length for partial-response …

Harashima and Miyakawa 1 and Tomlinson 2 have described a generalized partial
response technique which achieves the performance of the decision-feedback equalizer …

An adaptation algorithm for equalizers operating on very distorted channels is presented.
The algorithm is based on the idea of adjusting the equalizer tap gains to maximize the …

A technique is described for reducing the error propagation resulting from the use of
decision feedback equalization in an M-ary, varying system. The technique is applicable …

The performance of partial response linear and decision-feedback equalizers is evaluated
for a digital magnetic recording channel having a symmetric pulse response, and a magnetic …

A receiver structure is described, for use in pulseamplitude modulation (PAM) data
communication systems, which combines null-zone detection and maximum likelihood (ML) …

An upper bound on the error probability of a decision-feedback equalizer which takes into
account the effect of error propagation is derived. The bound, which assumes independent …
