This paper describes the improvement of broadband radio channel characteristics using a MMSE adaptive equalization technique as a fundamental study of high transmission rates in indoor radio channel. First, the performance of 16-QAM system that employs a MMSE linear adaptive equalizer in Rayleigh fading channel is analyzed. Next, in order to improve broadband radio channel characteristics, we apply an adaptive equalization technique employing the MMSE algorithm to the radio channel measured by using circularly polarized antenna under indoor NLOS(non-line-of sight) environment. Consequently, for 16-QAM with adaptive equalizer, we can achieve the improvement of about 13 dB at $10^{-3}$ error rate as compared with general 16-QAM. Moreover, it was found that the adaptive equalization technique could improve broadband radio channel characteristics over the all measured areas. Also, it was found that the employing both adaptive equalization and polarization diversity technique together could improve broadband radio channel characteristics and reduce fading more effectively.

This paper proposes the RMMA (Region based Multiple Modulus Algorithm) algorithm that is possible to improving the performance of MMA adaptive equalization algorithm in order to the reduction of intersymbol interference occurs at the communication channel. In RMMA algorithm, the output constellation of equalizer are divided by 4 different regions in order to get the error signal for adapting the channel characteristic, and the small error signal is obtained by mapping each region to 4-QAM signal. The conversion effect of constant modulus from nonconstant modulus signal was obtained. In this paper, the adaptive equalization performance of proposed RMMA were evaluated comared to the present MMA. As a result of computer simulation, the convergence speed and residual quantity were improved in residual isi and MD. Especially the superiorities of robustness was confirm in SER performance compared to present MMA.

In digital data transmission/storage systems, the compensation for channel distortion is conducted normally using a training sequence that is known a priori to both the sender and receiver. The use of the training sequences results in inefficient utilization of channel bandwidth. Sometimes, it is also impossible to send training sequences such as in the burst-mode communication. As such, a great deal of attention has been given to the approach requiring no training sequences, which has been called the blind equalization technique. On the other hand, to utilize the limited bandwidth effectively, the concept of partial response (PR) signaling has widely been adopted in both the high-speed transmission and high-density recording/playback systems such as digital microwave, digital subscriber loops, hard disk drives, digital VCRs and digital versatile recordable disks and so on. This paper is concerned with blind adaptive equalization of partial response channels whose transfer function zeros are located on the unit circle, thereby causing some problems in performance. Specifically we study how the problems of blind channel equalization associated with the PR channels can be improved. In doing so, we first discuss the existing methods and then propose new structures for blind PR channel equalization. Our structures have been extensively tested by computer simulation and found out to be encouraging in performance. The results seem very promising as well in terms of the implementation complexity compared to the previous approach reported in literature.

This paper is concerned with the CR-CMA (Coordinate Reduction-Constant Modulus Algorithm) adaptive equalization algorithm using the coordinate reduction in order to improve the convergence characteristic and residual intersymbol interference which are used as the performance index for an adaptive equalizer. The equalizer is used to reduce the distortion caused by the intersymbol interference on the wireless and the wired band-limited channel that connect the transmitting system and receiving system. The CMA is widely known as the representative algorithm for equalization. In order to transmitting the mass information with a high speed through the channels, a fast convergence speed in the equalizer performance that is able to minimize overhead needed for equalization is acquired. In this paper, we introduce the new cost function to reduce the constellation of received signal at the input stage of a equalizer. It reduce the error at the steady equalization state. By the computer simulation, we confirmed that the proposed CR-CMA algorithm has the faster convergence speed and the smaller residual intersymbole interference than the conventional CMA.

본 논문에서는 2차 통계치를 이용하여 패널추징 및 등화 기법을 제안하였다. 기존의 채널 추정 알고리듬은 잡음이 없는 환경에서 LS방법을 이용하기 때문에 잡음이 강한 패널에서는 원하는 성능을 얻을 수 없는 단점이 있다. 수신신호의 상관행렬의 최소 고유값에 대응하는 고유벡터는 채널의 임펄스 응답에 관한 정보를 포함하고 있다. 이러한 고유 벡터를 매시간마다 갱신시키면서 구하는 적응 알고리듬을 제안하고 이를 이용하여 블라인드 채널 추정 및 등화기 파라미터를 추정하였다. 제안한 알고리듬은 잡음에 강인한 특성을 보일 뿐 아니라 기존의 알고리듬들 보다 우수한 채널 추정 및 등화 성능을 모의 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

In this paper, we compare and analyze the LMS ard RLS algorithm of IEEE802.15.3(HDR-WPAN) system. The LMS algorithm have two merits that easily embody and not complex, but convergence speed is slow. The RLS algorithm have fast convergence speed, but very complex. When equalization using LMS algorithm, it can achieve adaptive equalization after 250 sample in fading environment, but case of RLS algorithm can achieve adaptive equalization after just 50 sampls. The computer simulation proved that adaptive equalizer to fast equalization and stability of HDR-WPAN system is more effective using RLS algorithm then LMS algorithm.

This paper describes an equalizer using the DFE (Decision Feedback Equalizer) structure, CMA (Constant Modulus Algorithm) and LMS (Least Mean Square) algorithms. The DFE structure has better channel adaptive performance and lower BER than the transversal structure. The proposed equalizer can be used for 16/64 QAM modems. We employ high speed multipliers, square logics and many CSAs (Carry Save Adder) for high speed operations. We have developed floating-point models and fixed-point models using the COSSAP$\^$TM/ CAD tool and developed VHDL filter. The proposed equalizer shows low BER in multipath fading channel. We have performed models. From the simulation results, we employ a 12 tap feedback filter and a 8 tap feedforward logic synthesis using the SYNOPSYS$\^$TM/ CAD tool and the SAMSUNG 0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ standard cell library (STD80) and verified function and timing simulations. The total number of gates is about 130,000.

In this paper, we Investigate the $Q^2PSK$ modulation and demodulation system and analyze the BER performance of the receiver system under 2-way Rayleigh fading and Gaussian noisy channel environment. The TDL equalizer with the adaptive LMS algorithm is used to improve the receiver performance since the received signal is distorted through that channel and the recovered carrier from the noncoherent demodulation has much phase deviation error. From the results of computer simulation, It is shown that at 12dB SNR, the reception performance is improved by $83.7\%$ in the fading case, $89.3\%$ in the carrier phase error case and $60.4\%$ in the case of the fading and carrier phase error.

This paper proposes a Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFT) with an error feedback filter for blind channel equalization. The proposed equalizer uses Least Mean Square(LMS) Algorithm and Multi-Modulus Algorithm (MMA), and has been designed for 64/256 QAM constellations. The existing MMA equalizer uses either two transversal filters or feedforward and feedback filers, while the proposed equalizer uses feedforward, feedback and error feedback filters to improve the channel adaptive performance and to reduce the number of taps. The proposed equalizer has been simulated using the $SPW^{TM}$ tool and it shows performance improvement. It has been modeled by VHDL and logic synthesis has been performed using the $0.25\;\mu m$ Faraday CMOS standard cell library. The total number of gates is about 190,000 gates. The proposed equalizer operates at 15 MHz. In addition, FPGA vertification has been performed using FPGA emulation board.
