    摘要: In a method for detecting symbols in a signal received via a communication channel, the signal including a plurality of signal points, each signal point in the plurality of signal points is processed using a decision feedback equalizer (DFE) to produce a DFE decision. Reliability of the DFE decision is assessed to determine whether the DFE decision is at least one of i) reliable or ii) not reliable. When it is determined that the DFE decision is not reliable, a block of signal points of the plurality of signal points is processed using a Viterbi Detector (VD) to generate a block of VD decisions. The block of VD decisions is selected to be used in place of a block of DFE decisions.

    摘要: A system and method for recovering the seed of a pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) using soft decisions is disclosed. In some implementations, a log-likelihood ratio is calculated to determine the certainty with which each bit in the seed has been recovered, and in some implementations, the value of the PRBS is used in the calculation of the log-likelihood ratio. In some implementations, a linear feedback shift register stores the log-likelihood ratio for each bit in the sequence.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for synchronizing the signals coming from a set of data channels of a two dimensional optical read-out system. Said synchronization method comprises a step of cross-correlating the signals of a pair of adjacent channels for determining a relative phase delay between said adjacent channels. It also comprises a step of iterating the cross-correlation step for the different pair of adjacent channels of the set of data channels. It finally comprises a step of compensating for the relative phase delays thus obtained in order to align the signals from adjacent channels with each other. The present invention is based on, for example, the use of the optical cross talk existing between adjacent channels in a cross correlator that is able to determine the relative phase between two adjacent channels.
