    摘要: The present document relates to optical transmission systems. In particular, the present document relates to a system and method for detecting symbols at an optical receiver from an optical signal which has been submitted to distortion in an optical transmission medium. A detection unit (300) configured to detect a symbol from a received digital signal is described, wherein the digital signal has been derived from an optical signal transmitted over a first optical transmitted channel and submitted to noise. The detection unit (300) comprises a noise whitening filter unit (301), configured to filter the received digital signal using a noise whitening filter, wherein the noise whitening filter is configured to whiten the noise, and wherein the noise whitening filter is based on an estimate of a power spectral density of the noise; and a maximum likelihood sequence detector (306), referred to as MLSE detector, downstream of the noise whitening filter unit (301); wherein the MLSE detector (306) is configured to detect the symbol from the filtered digital signal at a given time instant, while taking into account one or more symbols of one or more previous time instants.

    摘要: In connection with transmitted space-time, trellis encoded, signals that pass through a transmission channel that is characterized by memory, improved performance is realized with a receiver that combines a decoder with an equalizer that selects the trellis transition, s, that minimizes the metric ξ j k = r k - ∑ l = L 1 + 1 L 1 h ˜ j l ⁢ s ˜ ⁢ k - l - ∑ l = L 1 + 1 L + 1 h ˜ j l ⁢ s ^ ⁢ k - l 2
    where f̃ j ( l ) is related to both the transmission channel and to the encoding structure in the transmitter, s̃ ( k ) are the (trial) symbols according to a certain transition and ŝ ( k ) are the symbols that were previously decided.

    摘要: The present invention is a high quality real-time Turbo-MUD processing system initially employing a high complexity multi-user detector that results in better estimates of the bit streams, and then the remaining iterations employing a computationally low linear-based-MUD/Turbo-MUD. The present approach uses more computational computations at the first iteration, and less computations on subsequent processing due to cycling through the Turbo-MUD process with a low complexity sub-optimal detector that significantly cleans up the estimates in a few iterations of the Turbo-MUD. The present invention also provides an efficient means of estimating symbols transmitted in a multi-user environment in overloaded or super-saturated conditions.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are disclosed for improving the processing time of reduced complexity sequence estimation techniques, such as reduced state sequence estimation (RSSE). The possible values for the branch metrics in the RSSE are precomputed to permit pipelining and the shortening of the critical path. Precomputing the branch metrics for all possible symbol combinations in the channel memory makes it possible to remove the branch metrics unit (BMU) and decision-feedback unit (DFU) from the feedback loop, thereby reducing the critical path. A look-ahead branch metrics unit (LABMU) and an intersymbol interference canceller (ISIC) precompute the branch metrics for all possible values for the channel memory. At the beginning of each decoding cycle, a set of multiplexers (MUXs) select the appropriate branch metrics based on the survivor symbols in the corresponding survivor path cells (SPCs), which are then sent to an add-compare-select unit (ACSU). The computational load of the precomputations is reduced for multi-dimensional trellis codes by precomputing each dimension of the multi-dimensional trellis code separately. Prefiltering techniques are used to reduce the computational complexity by shortening the channel memory. A hybrid survivor memory architecture is also disclosed for a RSSE for a channel having a channel memory of length L, where the survivors corresponding to the L past decoding cycles are stored in a register exchange architecture (REA), and survivors corresponding to later decoding cycles are stored in a trace-back architecture (TBA) or register exchange architecture (REA). Symbols are mapped to information bits to reduce the word size before being moved from the first register exchange architecture (REA) to the trace-back architecture (TBA) or the second register exchange architecture (REA).
