Joint Blind Equalization and Blind Estimation of Equalizerperformance
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper proposes a new method for the estimation of the bit-error-rate (BER) in the output of blind equalizers, which could be applied for telecommunication system fault management. Trends in radio communications are discussed, which motivate the focus on blind adaptation, and a simple test for assessing decision errors in the output of the decision device is derived. Simulations validate theoretical results, and point out the main features of the proposition: low computational burden and accurate BER estimation.

A comparative study of several BER estimator methods is presented in terms of convergence rate and tracking capability of both static and...
متن کاملMaximum likelihood joint channel and data estimation using genetic algorithms
A batch blind equalization scheme is developed based on maximum likelihood joint channel and data estimation. In this scheme, the joint maximum likelihood optimization is decomposed into a twolevel optimization loop. A micro genetic algorithm is employed at the upper level to identify the unknown channel model, and the Viterbi algorithm is used at the lower level to provide the maximum likeliho...
متن کاملJoint blind equalization and estimation of the symbol period: a contrast function approach
The blind estimation of the symbol period of an unknown linearly modulated signal is addressed. We propose an original methodology relying on the concept of blind deconvolution, which does not suffer from the drawbacks of the classical approaches relying upon the cyclostatinarity of the received signal. Under suitable technical conditions, we show that the optimization of certain cost functions...
متن کاملBlind equalization with iterative joint channel and data estimation for wireless DPSK systems
|A joint channel and data estimator suitable for wireless diierential phase shift keying (DPSK) systems with short block sizes is proposed. No training data symbols are necessary, but a priori information may be incorporated , if available. The basic structure consists of an iterative approximation of the joint maximum-likelihood (ML) solution, which is enhanced by adaptive ltering, by shift op...
متن کاملBlind Equalization via Blind Source Separation Techniques
This paper addresses the application of blind source separation (BSS) algorithms to the problem of blind equalization (BE) in a frequency selective multiuser environment. Compared with other algorithms that exploit the structural properties of the channel or data matrix, our approaches are insensitive to channel order estimation, robust to ill-conditioned channels and able to choose the \best" ...
