ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for combatting intersymbol interference and noise introduced into a data signal transmitted at a symbol rate l/T by a transmission channel having a memory span LT corresponding to a number of L consecutive data symbols, comprises a receive filter (RF), a first decision circuit (ID) for forming preliminary symbol decisions in response to the transmitted data signal, a second decision circuit (FD) for forming final symbol decisions, means (FFS and FBS) for compensating pre- and post-cursive intersymbol interference, and a combining circuit (AD) for forming the input signal for the second decision circuit (FD). By selecting in these compensating means the memory span MT of the feedforward section (FFS), and possibly also the memory span NT of the feedback section (FBS), to be smaller than the memory span LT of the transmission channel, a simplification of the implementation of the arrangement is achieved, whereas the attainable transmission quality does not appreciably differ from the transmission quality attainable with MT=NT=LT.
