Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimation (MLSE) is performed on a received signal that is affected by non-linear distortion. In particular, a cleaned signal is produced by removing non-linear inter-symbol-interference (ISI) through a Volterra canceller which is a simplified structure with respect to a...http://www.google.com/patents/US6600794?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US6600794 - Method and device for nonlinear maximum likelihood sequence estimation by removing non-linear inter-symbol-interference (ISI) from a received signal
