In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for the MLSE equalizer for the GSM system. Specifically, we use a parametric model for the channel, to obtain a modified Viterbi equalizer which we refer to as the parametric channel-Viterbi equalizer (PC-VE). In contrast to the conventional Viterbi equalizer with a FIR channel description, the PC-VE avoids the linear approximation error and has a lower computational complexity. The proposed algorithm is applicable to both single and multi-antenna receivers. Some simulation results that illustrate the performance of the proposed algorithm are presented
