Original Abstract Submitted
the present disclosure relates to signal processing systems that employ various techniques to enhance data transfer quality. in some cases, a memory controller uses a neural network (e.g., time delay neural network (tdnn) to enable nonlinear processing to improve equalization. in some other cases, the memory controller uses an activation function to enable nonlinear processing to improve equalization. the systems may incorporate a finite impulse response (fir) filter with the activation function applied to its output. a memory controller including a cache may store precomputed values of the activation function. various types of activation functions or neural network configurations may be employed to introduce nonlinearity and adapt to different application requirements. the present disclosure is applicable in communication systems, control systems, and other digital signal processing systems requiring efficient processing of complex data transmission patterns.
