Incoming data pulses from a transmission channel are differentially combined with feedback pulses from the downstream end of a cascade of (N-1) delay networks to form an updating signal fed in parallel to a first set of multipliers for weighting with respective coefficients b.sub.1 - b.sub.N.sub.-1. These multipliers deliver optimized signal components to the inputs of respective delay networks of the cascade, through the intermediary of adders in each instance except for the first delay network at the upstream end; a further adder downstream of the last delay network may superimpose the updating signal, weighted with a coefficient b.sub.N by an N.sup.th multiplier of the first set, upon the feedback pulse issuing from the last delay network to generate an additional signal component. At least the more significant signal components, from the inputs of the delay networks located further upstream in the cascade, are weighted in a second set of multipliers with respective coefficients a.sub.1, a.sub.2 etc. before being additively combined, in a summing circuit, into a composite output signal. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1.
An equalizer for digital messages insertable between a transmission channel and a load, comprising: a data lead for incoming pulses; a cascade of several delay networks provided with an upstream and a downstream end, said delay networks having identical delay times corresponding to a pulse cycle; first arithmetic means with input connections to said data lead and to said downstream end for differentially combining each incoming pulse with a feedback signal from said cascade and feeding an individually weighted updating signal to each of said delay networks; and second arithmetic means with input connections to the inputs of at least two of said delay networks proximal to said upstream end for individually weighting respective signal components fed to said delay networks and combining the signal components so weighted into a composite output signal.
2.
An equalizer as defined in claim 1, further comprising adders inserted between adjoining delay networks of said cascade; said first arithmetic means including first summing means, connected to said data lead and to said downstream end for receiving said incoming pulses and said feedback signal therefrom, and a first set of multipliers connected in parallel to an output of said first summing means for receiving therefrom an updating signal to be weighted with predetermined first coefficients, one multiplier of said first set having an output connection to said upstream end, the other multipliers of said first set each having an output connection to a respective adder, whereby each of said delay networks receives during each pulse cycle a respective signal component derived from said updating signal; said second arithmetic means including a second set of multipliers, one multiplier of said second set having an input connection to said upstream end, at least one other multiplier of said second set having an input connection to an output of an adder in said cascade proximal to said upstream end, and second summing means connected to said second set of multipliers for receiving therefrom the respective signal components weighted with predetermined second coefficients to be combined into said output signal
