On the Design of Channel Shortening Demodulators for Iterative Receivers in MIMO and ISI Channels

چکیده
We consider the problem of designing demodulators for linear vector channels with memory that use reduced-size trellis descriptions for the received signal. We assume an overall iterative receiver, and for the parts of the signal not covered by the trellis description, we use interference cancelation based on the soft information provided by the outer decoder. In order to reach a trellis description, a linear filter is applied as front-end to compress the signal structure into a small trellis. This process requires three parameters to be designed: (i) the front-end filter, (ii) the feedback filter through which the interference cancelation is done, and (iii) a target response which specifies the trellis. Demodulators of this form have been studied before under then name channel shortening (CS), but the interplay between CS and interference cancelation has not been adequately addressed in the literature. In this paper, we analyze two types of CS demodulators that are based on the Forney and Ungerboeck detection models, respectively. The parameters are jointly optimized based on a generalized mutual information (GMI) function. We also introduce a third type of CS demodulator that is in general suboptimal but has closed form solutions for all parameters. Moreover, signal to noise ratio (SNR) asymptotic properties are analyzed and we show that the third CS demodulator asymptotically converges to the optimal CS demodulator in the sense of maximizing the GMI. This paper will be presented in part at the IEEE 26th annual international symposium on personal, indoor and mobile radio communications (PIMRC) in Hongkong on August 30 September 2, 2015.

Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization for Orthogonal STBC over Frequency-Selective MIMO-PLC channels
In this paper we propose a new space diversity scheme for broadband PLC systems using orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC) transmission combined with single-carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE). To apply this diversity technique to PLC channels, we first propose a new technique for combining SC-FDE with OSTBCs applicable to all dispersive multipath channels impaired by impulsive...
متن کاملOptimal Channel Equalization for MIMO Time-Varying Channels
We consider optimal channel equalization for MIMO (multi-input/multi-output) time-varying channels in the sense of MMSE (minimum mean-squared-error), where the observation noise can be non-stationary. We show that all ZF (zero-forcing) receivers can be parameterized in an affine form which eliminates completely the ISI (inter-symbol-interference), and optimal channel equalizers can be designed ...
متن کاملFIR channel-shortening equalizers for MIMO ISI channels
Finite-length delay-optimized multi-input multi-output (MIMO) equalizers that optimally shorten the impulse response memory of frequency-selective MIMO channels are derived. The MIMO equalizers are designed to minimize the average energy of the error sequence between the equalized MIMO channel impulse response and an MIMO target impulse response (TIR) with shorter memory. Two criteria for optim...
متن کاملn MIMO Systems in Rayleigh Channels with Maximum Likelihood Equalization Scheme
Channel equalizers are used to reduce the ISI arising from the delay spread or band limitation of the channel by adjusting the pulse shape so that it does not interfere with the neighbouring pulses. Equalization is a million intensive functions in cellular phone receivers. Channel equalization was first used in echo cancellation in telephone networks. The Maximum Likelihood equalizer achieves a...
