Development of encoding scheme for data-dependent noise elimination
Our signaling method improves Xtalk on next-generation HBM with extreme channel density.
HBM requires a lot of power to provide the necessary bandwidth for processing large amounts of data. To address this, low-power technologies can be applied, such as reducing voltage or introducing dynamic power management techniques.

Wireline communication serves as the backbone of the communication network. With the growing demand for high-bandwidth applications like video streaming and cloud services, the data transfer rates required for wireline communication keeps increasing, making the channel loss a major obstacle in achieving low bit error rate (BER). Equalization techniques such as FFE and DFE are commonly used to compensate for channel loss in wireline communication, but they have limitations in terms of noise boosting and timing constraints. On the other hand, the forward-backward algorithm can achieve better BER performance, but its high complexity makes it impractical for wireline communication. In this work, we propose a neural network structure that effectively mimics the forward-backward algorithm that performs better than FFE and DFE while reducing complexity compared to the forward-backward algorithm.
