  • Patent number: 12261629
    Abstract: The technology relates to bandwidth constrained communication systems with neural network based detection. In some embodiments, a bandwidth constrained equalized transport (BCET) communication system comprises: a transmitter comprising an error control code encoder, a pulse-shaping filter, and a first interleaver; a communication channel; and a receiver comprising a neural network processing block that processes a received signal. The error control code encoder can append redundant information onto the signal. The pulse-shaping filter can intentionally introduce memory into the signal in the form of inter-symbol interference. The first interleaver can change a temporal order of the symbols in the signal. The neural network can be trained with positive mappings between transmitted and decoded training signals, or negative mappings between training signals and erroneous decoded signals that are known to contain errors.

The first interleaver can change a temporal order of the symbols in the signal. The error control code encoder can be a low-density parity-check (LDPC) error control code encoder. The neural network can be trained with positive mappings between transmitted and decoded training signals, or negative mappings between training signals and a null space of an LDPC generation matrix.
