Abstract

This paper compares the equalization algorithm of CR-MMA (Constellation Reduction-Multi Modulus Algorithm) and RMMA (Region based Multi Modulus Algorithm) for the compensation of channel's distortion in nonconstant modulus signal. In order to obtain the error signal for adaptive equalization, every signal points are reduced to the constant modulus signal in CR-MMA and every signal points are separated into the 4 regions, then the reductions are performed based on this region in RMMA. These two algorithm based on the reduction principle such as in order to updating the tap coefficient in the adaptive equalization, it has different equalization performance. The computer simulation was performed in order to compare the each equalization performance in this paper. As a result of computer simulation, RMMA has more good performance in the residual isi, maximum distortion and SER performance than CR-MMA, but not in convergence speed.

본 논문에서는 nonconstant modulus 신호를 대상으로 채널의 찌그러짐을 보상하기 위한 CR-MMA (Constellation Reduction - Multiple Modulus Algorithm)와 RMMA (Region based Multiple Modulus Algorithm) 등화 알고리즘의 성능을 비교하였다. 적응 등화를 위한 오차 신호를 얻기 위하여 CR-MMA에서는 모든 신호점들을 constant modulus를 갖는 신호로 축소하지만, RMMA에서는 모든 신호점들이 존재하는 지역을 4개로 분할한 후 이를 지역 기반으로 축소하게 된다. 이와 같은 축소 원리를 적용하여 적응 등화를 위한 탭 계수 갱신을 수행하게 되지만 이들은 각기 다른 등화 성능을 갖게 되므로, 논문에서는 이들의 성능을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인한다. 시뮬레이션 결과 RMMA는 출력 신호 성상도와 잔류 isi 및 최대 찌그러짐과 SER 성능이 CR-MMA보다 우월하지만, 수렴 속도가 늦어졌다.
