초록

본 논문은 16-QAM 신호 전송시 시분산 채널에서 발생되는 진폭과 위상 찌그러짐에 의한 부호간 간섭을 경감시키기 위한 적응 등화 알고리즘인 VSDA (Variable stepsize Square contour Decision directed Algorithm)의 성능에 관한 것이다. 기존 SCA 에서는 송신 신호의 2차 통계치인 Constellation Dependent Constant를 이용하여 수신 신호의 진폭과 위상을 보상하지만, VSDA에서는 constellation matching을 위한 distance adjusted approach 개념과 decision directed 비용 함수를 부가하여 수렴 성능을 더욱 개선시킨 것이다. 논문에서는 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 VSDA와 SCA의 등화 성능을 비교하였으며, 이를 위한 성능 지수로는 등화기 출력 신호 성상도, 잔류 isi양, 최대 찌그러짐 및 MSE를 사용하였다. 성능의 비교 결과 수렴 속도에서는 VSDA 알고리즘이 SCA보다 훨씬 개선되었지만, 모든 성능 지수는 유사함을 알 수 있었다.

This paper relates with the VSDA (Variable stepsize Square contour Decision directed Algorithm) adaptive equalization algorithm that is used for the minimization of the intersymbol interference due to the distortion which occurs in the time dispersive channel for the transmission of 16-QAM signal.. In the conventional SCA, it is possible to compensates the amplitude and phase in the received signal that are mixed with the intersymbol interference by the constellatin dependent constant by using the 2nd order statistics of the transmitted signal. But in the VSDA, it is possible to the increasing the equalization performance by adding the concept of distance adjusted approach for constellation matching and the cost function of decision directed. We compare the performance of VSDA and SCA algorithm by the computer simulation. For this, the equalizer output signal constellation, residual isi, maximum distortion and MSE were used in the performace index. As a result of computer simulation, the VSDA algorithm has better than the SCA in convergence speed, but it gives nearly same equalization performance in other index.
