초록

이 논문에서는 신호점 매칭 오차(constellation-matched error: CME)와 비 신호점 매칭 오차(non-constellation-matched error: non-CME)를 선형 결합한 오차 신호 기반의 블라인드 등화 알고리즘을 제안한다. 새로운 오차 신호는 초기 수렴을 달성하기 위한 non-CME 항과 출력 신호의 심볼간 간섭(intersymbol interference: ISI) 성능을 개선하기 위한 CME 항을 포함하도록 설계되었고, 결합 인자를 통해 두 오차 항을 제어한다. 오차 항을 제어하여 등화 단계에 적합한 오차 신호를 발생함으로써 기존 알고리즘에 비해 수렴 속도와 심볼간 간섭 제거 성능을 개선하였다. 다중경로 채널에 잡음을 부가한 조건하에서 이루어진 64-QAM과 256-QAM 신호에 대한 모의실험에서 제안 방법이 CMA와 CMA+DD 동시 등화에 비해 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, we propose a blind equalization algorithm based on the error signal linearly combined a constellation-matched error (CME) and a non-constellation-matched error (non-CME). The new error signal was designed to include the non-CME term for reaching initial convergence and the CME term for improving intersymbol interference (ISI) performance of output signals, and it controls the error terms through a combining factor. By controlling the error terms, it generates an appropriate error signal for equalization process and improves convergence speed and ISI cancellation performance compared to those of conventional algorithms. In the simulation for 64-QAM and 256-QAM signals under the multipath channel and additive noise conditions, the proposed method was superior to CMA and CMA+DD concurrent equalization.
