In this paper we propose and analyze a novel modulation and pre-equalization method to minimize signal processing time delay for the Equalization Digital On-Channel Repeater (EDOCR) in ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee) terrestrial digital TV system. The proposed modulation method uses Equi-Ripple (ER) filter coefficients instead of conventional Square Root Raised Cosine (SRRC) after coefficients for VSB (Vestigial Side Bands) pulse shaping. And the proposed pre-equalization method calculates pre-equalizer filter coefficients by using baseband signal as reference signal and demodulated repeater output signal, then generates a new VSB pulse shaping filter coefficients by convolutioning ER filter coefficients and pre-equalizer filter coefficients. The newly generated pulse shaping filter does not have minimized time delay by adjusting the number of pre-taps of the filter, but also compensates linear distortions caused by ER filter and mask filter.

본 논문에서는 B-FWA의 상향링크에 적용할 수 있는 equalization 시스템 중에서 pre-equalization 시스템에 대해서 다양한 감쇄 채널에 대해서 성능을 분석하였다. 고려한 감쇄채널은 세가지의 강우감쇄 채널에 (rain, intermittent light rain and thundershower) 대해서 분석하였다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 pre-equalization 시스템에 적용된 adaptive 알고리즘은 LMS와 RLS로서, 각각의 트레이닝 시퀀스의 길이 대비 채널환경에 따른 성능을 평가하였다. 실험결과, LMS 알고리즘을 사용하는 equalization 알고리즘은 알고리즘의 복잡도를 어느 정도 허용되는 범위에서 delay에 심한 부분에 적합하는 것으로 결론지었고, RLS 알고리즘은 짧은 트레이닝 시퀀스로 빠른 송신이 가능한 곳에 성능이 우수함을 확인하였다.

The Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimation scheme is modified to improve the error performance of the correlative coding in the Tamed FM. To remove intersymbol interference, the Decision Feedback Equalization scheme with the delayed LMS algorithm and the Viterbi algorithm(10-symbol delay) in the delayed adaptive equalization are proposed for the performance of decision-directed adaptive equalization under the High Frequency channels, and the condition of convergence is analyzed.

SC-FDE (Single Carrier with Frequency-Domain Equalization), one of physical layers of IEEE802.16, is less sensitive to nonlinear power amplifiers than OFDM while its complexity and performance is comparable. The guard interval length in SC-FDE should be greater than the maximal delay spread. While a delay spread is small in most wireless communication environments, a very large delay spread can be possibly encountered in the mountain areas or due to the repeaters. This paper proposes SC-FDE with variable-length guard intervals. In the proposed method the guard interval length can be determined per each cell or per each subscriber stations.

This paper compares the performances of cyclic delay diversity and phase rolling techniques for SC-FDE(Single Carrier with Frequency Domain Equalization) systems with multiple transmit antennas assuming time-flat and frequency-flat channels. In OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) systems generation of time varying channels using phase rolling can result in performance gains comparable to those of frequency-selective channels made by cyclic delay diversity However, in SC-FDE systems making time-selective channels may produce better results than creation of frequency-selective channels.

Wireless communication channels with the most severe multipath fading phenomenon that appears each time a different delay is caused by the frequency selective fading. At this time, ISI due to the performance degradation of wireless communication channels and data transfer speed gives the constraints. OFDM technique can remove ISI inserting longer guard interval than channel delay spread of channel between symbol. However, the multi-path delay of the channel to be serious with the guard interval can not eliminate ISI. In this case, using the equalizer must compensate. Especially, use of equalizer is need absolutely as data rate becomes high speed. In this paper, we analyze the BER performance with pre-equalization for MIMO-OFDM over fading channel. The results of this paper can be applied to MIMO-OFDM system with equalization.

In this paper, the performance of pre-equalization technique which can be applicable for the B-WLL uplink is evaluated and compared to post-equalization technique under three kinds of rain attenuation channels such as rain, intermittent light rain and thundershower. The BER performance comparisons of two algorithms (LMS and RLS) are investigated in the context of channel models and the length of training sequence. From the simulation results, it is shown that the post-equalization outperforms only at quite good channel conditions such as AWGN, while the pre-equalization can guarantee better BER performance at every channel conditions, especially performance gain increases as the severity of channel increases. It is concluded that the pre-equalizer using LMS algorithm is preferable at delay-tolerant situation where the complexity of algorithm is not a strict factor, while one using RLS is suitable for fast burst transmission with a relatively short training sequence.

This paper presents a new method of designing room equalization filters using a warped common acoustical pole and zero (WCAPZ) modeling. The proposed method is capable of significantly reducing the order of the equalization filters without sacrificing the filter performance, especially, at low frequencies. Thus, the associated input-output delay is much smaller than the conventional block transform method while its computational complexity is comparable to it. The computational complexity also is still comparable to the conventional room equalization method, since the filter is implemented in the linear frequency domain after the pole-zero dewarping. Simulation results confirm that the use of the proposed algorithm significantly improves the room equalization over a range of low frequencies.

This study develops a real-time signal control algorithm based on sectional travel times and includes a field test and evaluation. The objective function of the signal control algorithm is the equalization of delay of traffic movements, and the main process is calculating dissolved time of the queue and delay using the sectional travel time and detection time of individual vehicles. Then this algorithm calculates the delay variation and a targeted red time and calculates the length of the cycle and phase. A progression factor from the US HCM was applied as a method to consider the effect of coordinating the delay calculation, and this algorithm uses the average delay and detection time of probe vehicles, which were collected during the accumulated cycle for a stabile signal control. As a result of the field test and evaluation through the application of the traffic signal control algorithm on four consecutive intersections at 400m intervals, reduction of delay and an equalization effect of delay against TOD control were confirmed using the standard deviation of delay by traffic movements. This study was conducted to develop a real-time traffic signal control algorithm based on sectional travel time, using general-purpose traffic information detectors. With the current practice of disseminating ubiquitous technology, the aim of this study was a fundamental change of the traffic signal control method.

Blind equalization of transmission channel is important in communication areas and signal processing applications because it does not need training sequence, nor does it require a priori channel information. Recently, Tong et al. proposed solutions for this problem exploit the diversity induced by antenna array or time oversampling, leading to the second order statistics techniques, fur example, subspace method, prediction error method, and so on. The linear prediction error method is perhaps the most attractive in practice due to the insensitive to blind equalizer length mismatch as well as for its simple adaptive filter implementation. Unfortunately, the previous one-step prediction error method is known to be limited in arbitrary delay. In this paper, we induce the optimal delay, and propose the adaptive blind equalizer with multi-step linear prediction using RLS-type algorithm. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the proposed algorithm and to compare it with existing algorithms.
