چکیده

This paper investigates the application of the multilayer perceptron structure to the packet-wise adaptive decision feedback equalization of a Mary QAM signal through a TDMA indoor radio channel in the presence of intersymbol interference (ISI) and additive Gaussian noise. Since the multilayer neural networks are capable of producing complex decision regions with arbitrarily nonlinear boundaries, this would greatly improve the performance of conventional decision feedback equalizer (DFE) where the decision boundaries of conventional DFE are linear. However, the applications of the traditional multilayer neural networks have been limited to realvalued signals. To tackle this difficulty, a neural-based DFE is proposed to deal with the complex QAM signal over the complex-valued fading multipath radio channel without performing time-consuming complex-valued back-propagation training algorithms, while maintaining almost the same computational complexity as the original real-valued training algorithm. Moreover, this neural-based DFE trained by packet-wise backpropagation algorithm would approach an ideal equalizer after receiving a sufficient number of packets. In this paper, another fast packet-wise training algorithm with better convergence properties is derived on the basis of a recursive least-squares (RLS) routine. Results show that the neural-based DFE trained by both algorithms provides a superior bit-error-rate performance relative to the conventional least mean square (LMS) DFE, especially in poor signal to noise ratio conditions.

Adaptive Decision Feedback Equalization for Digital Satellite Channels Using Multilayer Neural Networks

This paper introduces an adaptive decision feedback equalization using the multilayer perceptron structure of an M ary PSK signal through a TDMA satellite radio channel. The transmission is disturbed not only by intersymbol interference (ISI) and additive white Gaussian noise, but also by the nonlinearity of transmitter amplifiers. The conventional decision feedback equalizer (DFE) is not well-...

Using Least Squares Support Vector Machines for Adaptive Communication Channel Equalization

Adaptive equalizers are used in digital communication system receivers to mitigate the effects of non-ideal channel characteristics and to obtain reliable data transmission. In this paper, we adopt least squares support vector machines (LS-SVM) for adaptive communication channel equalization. The LS-SVM involves equality instead of inequality constraints and works with a least squares cost func...

A Novel Multicast Tree Construction Algorithm for Multi-Radio Multi-Channel Wireless Mesh Networks

Many appealing multicast services such as on-demand TV, teleconference, online games and etc. can benefit from high available bandwidth in multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks. When multiple simultaneous transmissions use a similar channel to transmit data packets, network performance degrades to a large extant. Designing a good multicast tree to route data packets could enhance the...
