변형 비분적응필터 알고리즘을 적용한 분할등화기 성능개선

An algorithm for MMADF(modified multiplication-free adaptive filter) which need not to multiplication arithmatic operation is proposed to improve the performance of FSE (fractionally spaced equalizer) which reduce the ISI(intersymbol interference) in signal transfer channel. The input signals are quantized using DPCM and the reference signals is processed using a first-order linear prediction filter. The convergence properties of Sign. MADF and M-MADF algorithm for updating of the coefficients of a FIR digital filter of the fractionally spaced equalizer (FSE) are investigated and compared with one another. The convergence properties are characterized by the steady state error and the convergence speed. It is shown that the convergence speed of M-MADF is almost same as Sign algorithm and is faster than MADF in the condition of same steady state error. Especially it is very useful for high correlated signals.
