A system, device, and method for time-domain equalizer (TEQ) training determines the TEQ order and TEQ coefficients by applying the multichannel Levinson algorithm for auto-regressive moving average (ARMA) modeling of the channel impulse response. Specifically, the TEQ is trained based upon a received training signal. The received training signal and knowledge of the transmitted training signal are used to derive an autocorrelation matrix that is used in formulating the multichannel ARMA model. The parameters of the multichannel ARMA model are estimated via a recursive procedure using the multichannel Levinson algorithm. Starting from a sufficiently high-order model with a fixed pole-zero difference, the TEQ coefficients corresponding to a low-order model are derived from those of a high-order model.
