We consider a time varying wireless fading channel, equalized by an LMS linear equalizer. We study how well this equalizer tracks the optimal Wiener equalizer. We model the channel by an Auto-regressive (AR) process. Then the LMS equalizer and the AR process are jointly approximated by the solution of a system of ODEs (ordinary differential equations). Using these ODEs, the error between the LM...

Digital European Cordless Telecommunication (DECT), as a standard for cordless indoor wireless communication in Europe, is widely used in hospitals, offices and factories. But its performance can be constrained by channel dispersion, and this can limit the use of DECT system in reflective environments. In this master thesis project, non-coherent equalization schemes are investigated. Different ...

This paper discusses the design and field programmable gate array (FPGA) implementation of a configurable 18-tap fractionally-spaced blind adaptive equalizer intellectual property (IP) core for quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signals. The design can be configured to implement the constant modulus algorithm (CMA), multimodulus algorithm (MMA), radius-adjusted modified-multimodulus algorith...

In a multi-channel environment, an adaptive blind equalizer-bank is presented which, under mild conditions, equalizes the channel-bank automatically. This adaptive blind equalizer is adaptive only to its own output, not to its input, i.e., the channel output.

This paper proposes a new blind adaptive MLSE equalizer for frequency selective mobile radio channels. The proposed equalizer performs channel estimation for each survivor path of the Viterbi algorithm (VA), and restricts the number of symbol candidates for the channel estimation in order to reduce prohibitive complexity. In such channel estimation, autocorrelation matrices of the symbol candid...

A low-power architecture for phase-splitting passband equalizer (PSPE) is proposed in this paper. Carrierless AM/PM (CAP) transmission scheme, which is a standard for numerous broadband communication systems including ATM-LAN networks, employs PSPE at the receiving end to combat channel distortion and crosstalk. The conventional PSPE requires two independent adaptive lters that form the in-phas...

At a communications receiver the observed signal is a corrupted version of the transmitted signal. This distortion in the received signal is due to the physical characteristics of the channel, including multipath propagation, the non-idealities of copper wires and impulse noise. Equalization is a process to combat these distortions in order to recover the original transmitted signal. Roughly st...

Abstract The equalizer of a set homomorphisms $S: F(a, b)\rightarrow F(\Delta)$ has rank at most two if S contains an injective map and is not finitely generated otherwise. This proves strong form Stallings’ Equalizer Conjecture for the free group two. Results are also obtained pairs $g, h:F(\Sigma)\rightarrow when images inert in, or retracts of, $F(\Delta)$.

A new adaptive MIMO channel equalizer is proposed based on adaptive generalized decision-feedback equalization and ordered-successive interference cancellation. The proposed equalizer comprises equal-length subequalizers, enabling any adaptive filtering algorithm to be employed for coefficient updates. A recently proposed computationally-efficient recursive least-squares algorithm based on dich...
