Abstract

Artificial neural network equaliser architectures offer advantages over transversal equaliser architectures. One of these advantages is the capacity for generalisation and the introduction of highly non-linear properties in the transfer function of the equaliser. When the equalisation is non-linear, as in the case of dispersive communications channels, artificial neural network structures have been shown to offer improved performance over transversal models, as reported in [2], [7], [8] for non-time-varying channels. Results for time-varying channels are also given in [3], [4].
