An EM-based MAP detector for CPM signals transmitted over frequency-flat fading channels

چکیده
In this paper the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation of a random vector is applied to the problem of symbol detection for CPM signals transmitted over timeselective Ftayleigh fading channels. This results in a soft-in soft-out (SISO) detection algorithm suitable for iterative detection/decoding schemes. Simulation results show that the error performance provided by the proposed solution is very close to that of a MAP detector endowed with an ideal knowledge of the channel state.

Serially Concatenated Space-Time Coded Continuous Phase Modulation
Certain problems associated with reliable digital wireless communication over a frequency-flat slow Rayleigh fading channel are treated, when the transmitted signal is modulated using continuous phase modulation (CPM) due to the desirable properties of CPM. The primary focus of attention is on detection strategies, and the thesis proposes iterative detection algorithms for CPM signals transmitt...
متن کاملEnergy Detection of Unknown Signals over Composite multipath/shadowing Fading Channels
In this paper, the performance analysis of an energy detector is exploited over composite multipath/shadowing fading channels, which is modeled by Rayleigh-lognormal (RL) distribution. Based on an approximate channel model which was recently proposed by the author, the RL envelope probability density function (pdf) is approximated by a finite sum of weighted Rayleigh pdfs. Relying on this inter...

Diversity combining techniques play an important role in combating the destructive effects of channel fading in wireless communication systems. In this work we present a blind diversity combining technique for Rayleigh flat fading channels based on Hammerstein type filters. We show that the performance of this technique is very close to ideal MRC system which is accepted as an optimum receiver ...
متن کاملNoncoherent Detection of FSK Signals Transmitted over Linearly Time-Selective Rayleigh Fading Channels
Linearly time-varying fading models are used to investigate noncoherent detection of frequency-shift keying (FSK) signals transmitted over frequency-flat fading channels. The structure of the optimal noncoherent FSK detector is derived and a novel analytical technique is proposed to compute the error performance of noncoherent FSK detectors in fast fading. Error performance results obtained by ...
متن کاملEM and MAP Methods for Joint Path Delay and Complex Gain Estimation of a Slowly Varying Fading Channel for CPM Signals
This paper addresses the joint path delay and time-varying complex gain estimation for continuous phase modulation (CPM), over a time-selective slowly varying Rayleigh flat fading channel. We propose two estimation methods: an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for path delay estimation in a Kalman framework, and a Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) method for joint path delay and complex gain est...
