Abstract: “Recently, more attentions are paid on the quality of the data transmission and the speed of the digital communication systems. Limitations can face the rate of data transmission over the communication channel because of the effect of the linear and nonlinear distortion. Different equalization techniques are applied to alleviate these effects. In this paper, an equalizer based on the AdaptiveNeuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is proposed for digital channel equalizer. For the performance evaluation, the proposed equalizer is compared with other classical equalizer. The experimental work demonstrates the significant improvement of the performance using ANFIS equalizer over theRadial Basis Function and Least Mean Square equalizers.”
