摘要
The present invention involves demodulation of radio signals modulated with M-ary modulation in the presence of intersymbol interference distortion. The invention presents a method for reducing the number of multiplications needed to implement a maximum-likelihood-sequence-estimation (MLSE) equalizer for signals modulated with M-ary modulation. In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the number of multiplications is reduced by pre-computing certain values needed for the determination of the branch metric and storing these pre-computed values in a product table. When a branch metric computation is to be made, whether it is an Euclidean branch metric computation or an Ungerboeck branch metric computation, certain multiplication operations are replaced by simple table look-up operations. As a result, the power efficiency and speed of the system are increased. Any receiver that demodulates signals that are modulated with M-ary modulation can be implemented using the present invention. The resulting demodulator will have a lower complexity than existing demodulators.
