Blind equalization techniques have been widely used in wireless communication systems. In this paper, we investigate the information potentials in the criterion of minimizing Euclidian distance between two PDFs criterion for adaptive blind equalizers and evaluate BER performance of the method that has utilized an appropriate balance between the two information potentials, one from output samples and ramdomly generated desired samples at the receiver and another from the interactions among output samples. The balanced information potential method has shown in the BER performance results that it can produce significantly enhanced BER performance in blind equalization applications.

The multicarrier system is in the limelight for broadband wireless communications due to its spectral efficiency. Filtered multitone(FMT) system uses a filter that has several symbol periods duration. Using long-period filter causes a performance degradation because of intersymbol interference in multipath fading channels. In this paper, we propose a simple equalization method which can reduce the ISI due to the wireless channels. The proposed equalization method compensates the ISI by subtracting the estimated ISI components from the current symbol using one-tap equalizer. The performance of the proposed system is verified through theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed system can mitigate the effect of ISI significantly.

In this study, wer derived LMF-Sato, LMSF-Sato complex blind equalization algorithms for complex data. And then, the convergence rates, the convergence characteristics at the steady state and the stability of the proposed LMF and LMSF blind equalization algorithms are compared with those of LMS-Sato blind equalization algorithm. In simulations with 16-QAM data, LMF-Sato and LMSF-Sato algorithms showed better performance comparing with LMS-Sato algorithm generally. When the initial estimation errors of the weights of the equalizer are large, LMF-Sato algorithm showed ill characteristic in stability. However, LMSF-Sato algorithm has good covergence characteristics and preserves robustness.

Adaptive channel equalization complished without resorting to a training sequence is known as blind equalization. In this paper, in order to increase the speed of the convergence and to reduce the steady-state mean squared error simulatneously, we propose the multi-stage DD(decision-direct) algorithm derived from the combination of the Sato algorithm and the decision-directed algorithm. In the starting stage, the multi-stage DD algorithm is identical to the Sato algorithm which guarantees the convergence of the equalizer. As the blind equalizer converges, the number of the level of the quantizers is increased gradally, so that the proposed algorithm operates identical to the decision-directed algorithm which leads to the low error power after the convergence. Therefore, the multi-stage DD algorithm obtains fast convergence rate and low steady state mean squared error.

This paper relates with the Hybrid-SMMA adaptive equalization algorithm that is possible to improve the equalization performance based on adaptive modulus and adaptive stepsize which is propotional to the output power of equalizer in the current SMMA (Sliced Multi Modulus Algorithm). The fixed statistic modulus of transmitted signal is used in current SMMA algorithm in order to generate the error signal for updating the tap coefficient of equalizer. The proposed Hybrid-SMMA based on the adaptive modulus which is propotion to the equalizer output signal power and adaptive stepsize which is fuction of the nonlinearties of error signal. The computer simulation was performed in order to confirm the improved equalization performance of proposed algorithm. As a result of computer simulation, the proposed Hybrid-SMMA has fairly good in every performance than the current SMMA.

In this paper, we propose an OFDMA/CDM-based cellular system, which accommodates multiple users in frequency-domain and multiplexes user data with frequency-domain spreading. The proposed system utilizes random codes to discriminate cells and adopts the pre-equalization to enhance the performance. For cellular applications, a number of pre-equalization techniques are compared and an efficient power allocation scheme is suggested with a transmit power constraint. Especially, the validity of OFDMA/CDM based cellular system is investigated, by comparing the performance for varying the number of multiplexed data symbols at different locations. Finally the pre/post-equalization is proposed to reduce the performance degradation caused by time delay.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is widely used in wideband wireless communication systems due to its excellent performance. However, OFDM has a disadvantage of high peak-to-average power ratio and SC-FDE(Single-Carrier with Frequency-Domain Equalization) was introduced to overcome the drawback. SC-FDE is less sensitive to nonlinear power amplifiers than OFDM while its complexity and performance is comparable. This paper proposes a frequency diversity technique for single-antenna BPSK SC-FDE systems using repeated QPSK transmissions with rearranged transmission patterns.

We introduce a rotational decision-directed joint algorithm of blind equalization coupled with carrier recovery for 32-QAM demodulation with high symbol rate. The proposed carrier recovery, which we call a rotational decision-directed carrier recovery(RDDCR), removes the residual phase difference by rotating the decision boundary for the kth received symbol by the frequency detector output of the (k-1)th received symbol. Since the RDDCR includes the function of PLL loop filter by rotating the decision boundary, it gives a simpler demodulator structure. The rotational decision-directed blind equalization(RDDBE) with the rotated decision boundary based on the Stop-and-Go Algorithm(SGA) operated during tracking the frequency offset by the RDDCR and removes intersymbol interference due to multipaths and channel noise. Test results show that symbol error rate of $10^{-3}$ is obtained before the forward error correction when SNR equals 15dB with 150KHz of carrier frequency offset and two multipaths, which is the channel condition for 32-QAM receiver.

Relay-assisted multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technique has become a promising candidate for next generation broadband wireless communications. In this paper, we propose maximum ratio combining (MRC) minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) equalization for single carrier-frequency domain equalizer (SC-FDE) in amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying networks. The performance of SC-FDE system can be improved considerably by achieving both the diversity gain and the MMSE equalization gain when the signals from source-destination (S->D) and source-relay-destination (S->R->D) are combined and equalized by means of the MMSE criteria. We find the weighting coefficients of MRC combining and the tap coefficients of MMSE equalizer for SC-FDE in AF relaying networks. Simulation results show that the proposed relay-based system considerably outperforms the conventional SC-FDE system.

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.
