  • Abstract
    A generalised description is presented of the nonlinear data channel with finite memory. Independent Gaussian noise is added to the channel after the nonlinearity and the criterion for maximum-likelihood reception is formulated. The receiver includes a large number of matched filters; however, the formulation may be rearranged to permit a reduction in this number.
