Delayed decision feedback sequence estimator

Abstract

Disclosed is a delayed decision feedback sequence estimator comprising a delayed decision feedback sequence estimator main unit including DDFSE computing unit group including (L+M) DDFSE computing units, equal in number to a length of each of plurality of blocks into which a received data symbol sequence is divided; wherein (L+M) DDFSE computing units are connected in a pipeline configuration to execute delayed decision feedback sequence estimation of the blocks in parallel; and an edge effect detection and correction circuit that detects an edge effect due to processing the delayed decision feedback sequence estimation of the separated block and corrects a relevant bit error.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
