The equalizer is the central part of the receiver and its performance significantly affects the overall performance of the system in the mobile communication. A proposed equalizer is composed of the channel estimator, MLSE based on the Viterbi algorithm and GMSK decoder. The approximation of GMSK with QPSK has great impact on the equalizer design, because it allows us to use the existing simple and efficient algorithms for designing optimal QPSK equalizer. In order to estimate efficiently channel, we use a sliding window algorithm based on energy calculation and cross-correlator. And also a tuning scheme is presented in order to improve the equalizer performance. Simulation results indicate that a proposed equalizer meets the GSM standards easily in terms of performance.

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 have designed and analyzed a characteristics of backplane channel having 40 inch strip line length of four lanes and Flame Retardant four (PR-4) material, and have designed 40 Gb/s Receive and adaptive equalizer and its high-speed equalization algorithm using the backplane channel characteristics. For 40 Gb/s high-speed data communications pass through the backplane, a 10Gb/s 4 channel receive & equalizer with DFE except for FFE was proposed. This receive and equalizer meets the requirements of the IEEE Std P802.3ba standard-based receive equalizer to implement equalizers on the receive end of a 46 inch length's backplane channel.

The CMA algorithmis most widely investigated blind algorithm and the most widely used one in practice. But, since nonlinear CM cost function have not closed form solution about the optimum weight. There have been difficultiesto analyze the CMA equalizer's theoretical performance. Recently, Zeng presents the notable theoretical resultabout the MSE of CM-minimizing estimators for the FIR linear channel in the presence of AWGN. Through this method, It wouldbe possible to campare the theoretical performance between CMA and Wiener equalizer in terms of MSE. In this paper, based on Zeng's method, we first calculate the theoretical MSE bound of CMA equalizer in partial response channel which is widely used in HDD, digital VCR such as high-density digital recording.playback systems. We confirmedthis result withthe computer simulation. Except this, we also performedthe theoretical and simulation analysis about the modified CMA equalizer, which was proposed to improve the performance of CMA equalizer in partial response channel. Finally, we compare and evaluate the performance analysis results between CMA and Modified CMA equalizer.

ISI is caused by delay spread in the multipath channel environment. There are two kinds of channel equalizer: Linear and Non-Linear type according to the structures. In this paper, we propose an improved adaptive linear equalizer to mitigate ISI. The proposed adaptive equalizer is constructed by using asymmetrical Dsmvenu filter based on USE sub-optimal receiver. Asymmetrical structure of the transversal filter is realized by moving the main tap position from center to side. If this structure is used, we can divide ISI to precusor and postcusor. As a result the proposed equalizer has a larger extended compensation range than conventional adaptive linear equalizer. In computer simulation, we compare the bit error rate performance of the proposed linear equalizer with the conventional one on the S-V channel which is modeled for WB systems.

The process of transmitting messages through a medium with a limited bandwidth or channel dispersion inevitably involves signal distortion and noise influxes, resulting in the degradation of transmission quality due to the inter-symbol interference and additional noise, which increases the error rate of the received symbols. The main role of the equalizer is to remove the channel distortion and noise from the received signal to recover the transmitted messages. A number of studies on the equalizer composed of a combination of linear filter and error control coding have shown that they played a key role in enhancing the transmission efficiency, which is essential for digital communication. This paper proposes a new algorithm to correct the residual symbol errors in the message signal. In general, equalizer performance improvement algorithms were developed to improve the initial convergence speed or steady-state error. In this paper, however, the equalizer input signal was reconstructed using the equalizer decision symbols and the channel estimates to directly correct the decision errors by analyzing the statistical characteristics of the difference signal between the actual received signal and the reconstructed signal.

Recently, to utilize the limited bandwidth effectively, the concept of partial response (PR) signaling has widely been adopted in both the high-speed data transmission and high-density digital recording/playback systems such as digital microwave, digital subscriber loops, hard disk drives, digital VCR's and digital versatile recordable disks and so on. This paper is concerned with adaptive equalization of partial response channels particularly for the magnetic recording channels. Specifically we study how the PR channel equalizers work for different choices of desired or reference signals used for adjusting the equalizer weights. In doing so, we consider three different configurations that are actually implemented in the commercial products mentioned above. First of all, we show how to compute the theoretical values of the optimum Wiener solutions derived by minimizing the mean-squared error (MSE) at the equalizer output. Noting that this equalizer MSE measure cannot be used to fairly compare the three configurations, we propose to use the data MSE that is computer just before the final detector for the underlying PR system. We also express the data MSE in terms of the channel impulse response values, source data power and additive noise power, thereby making it possible to compare the performance of the configurations under study. The results of extensive computer simulation indicate that our theoretical derivation is correct with high precision. Comparing the three configurations, it also turns out that one of the three configurations needs to be further improved in performance although it has an apparent advantage over the others in terms of memory size when implemented using RAM's for the decision feedback part.

In this paper, we design and performance evaluate the equalizer for S-DMT table modem, which supports more channels and better quality symmetric mutimedia services over HFC network. We verified that both of the designed equalizers show good convergence characteristics and that the performance of the time domain equalizer is 1 dB better than that of the frequency domain equalizer overall range of Eb/No.

In this paper, a Modified Fuzzy C-Means algorithm with Gaussian Weights(MFCM_GW) is presented for nonlinear blind channel equalization. The proposed algorithm searches the optimal channel output states of a nonlinear channel from the received symbols, based on the Bayesian likelihood fitness function and Gaussian weighted partition matrix instead of a conventional Euclidean distance measure. Next, the desired channel states of a nonlinear channel are constructed with the elements of estimated channel output states, and placed at the center of a Radial Basis Function(RBF) equalizer to reconstruct transmitted symbols. In the simulations, binary signals are generated at random with Gaussian noise. The performance of the proposed method is compared with those of a simplex genetic algorithm(GA), a hybrid genetic algorithm(GA merged with simulated annealing(SA): GASA), and a previously developed version of MFCM. It is shown that a relatively high accuracy and fast search speed has been achieved.
