  • Method and apparatus for determining inputs to a finite state system
    Patent number: 8315955
    Abstract: A method of equalization used to estimate a transmitted signal given a received output is presented herein. The equalization method involves modeling a transmission channel as a Hidden Markov Model (HMM). The HMM channel is evaluated as a finite state machine. A Markov Chain Monte Carlo technique of sampling and computation is then utilized to estimate the transmitted signal.
    Type: Grant
