Fixed point algorithm for bit rate optimal equalization in multicarrier systems

In this paper we present a xed point algorithm for bit rate optimal time domain equalization in multicarrier systems. The algorithm outperforms standard MMSE equalizers in capacity measure. Moreover, it adaptively estimates the optimal signal delay which was an exhaustive search problem in MMSE equalizers. We brie y discuss the convergence properties and demonstrate the performance of the algorithm on a twisted pair copper wire loop with additive non-white noise.
