Abstract
A real-time systolic trellis automaton/RTSTA/ will be called semilinear of degree (at most) k if its underlying trellis T is semilinear of degree (at most) k, i. e. the set of rows of T can be expressed as a finite union of languages of the form
It is proved that every semilinear RTSTA of arbitrary degree k is equivalent with a semilinear regular RTSTA of degree 3. If regularity is not requested the degree can be diminished to 2, but not to 1.
