This paper proposes the Hybrid-CRMMA adaptive equalization algorithm that is possible to improves the performance of CR-MMA based on adaptive modulus and adaptive stepsize. The 16-QAM nonconstant modulus signal is reduced to 4-QAM constant modulus signal, and the error signal were obtained based on the fixed statistic modulus of transmitted signal. It is possible to improving the currently MMA adaptive equalization performance. The proposed Hybrid-CRMMA composed of adaptive modulus which is propotional to the power of equalizer output and adaptive stepsize which is function of the nonlinearties of error signal, and its improved equalization performance were confirmed by computer simulation. For this purpose, the output signal constellation, the residual isi and maximum distortion and MSE that is for the convergence characteristics, the SER that is meaning the robustness of external noise of algorithm were used. As a result of computer simulation, it was confirmed that the proposed Hybrid-CRMMA has more superior performance in every index compared to currently CR-MMA.

This paper related with the performance evaluation of mSE-MMA (modified Signed Error-Multi Modulus Algorithm) adaptive equalization algorithm which is possible to reduce the distortion that is occurs in nonlinear communication channel like as additive noise, intersymbol interference and fading. The SE-MMA algorithm are emerged in order to reducing the computational load compared to the presently MMA algorithm, it has the degraded equalization performance by this. In order to improve the performance degradation of SE-MMA, the mSE-MMA controls the step size according to the existence of arbitrary radius circle of equalizer output is centered at transmitted symbol point. The performance of proposed mSE-MMA algorithm were compared to present SE-MMA using the same channel and noise environment by computer simulation. For this, the recoverd signal constellation which is the output of equalizer, residual isi and MD (Maximum Distortion), MSE learning curve which is represents the convergence performance and SER which is represents the roburstness of noise were used as performance index. As a result of simulation, the mSE-MMA has more superior to the SE-MMA in every performance index, and was confirmed that mSE-MMA has roburstness to the noise in the SER performance than SE-MMA especially.

In the DFE(Decision Feedback Equalizer) for ATSC DTV receivers, there are decision errors in the slicer or. the simplified trellis decoder, and these decided false data comes to the feedback filter to make the error propagation phenomenon. The error propagation degrades the equalizer performance by increasing residual errors as well as slowing down the convergence rate. In this paper we propose a dual-feedback equalization structure. There are two feedback filters. One is the decision feedback filter which uses the simplified trellis decoder output data, the other is non-decision feedback filter which uses the equalizer output data. The additional non-decision feedback filter doesn't introduce the error propagation, so it can compensate the error propagation. The proposed structure accelerates the convergence rate as well as reduces output men-square error(MSE). We analyzed the performance enhancement of DTV receiver using dual-feedback equalization structure.

This paper related with the I-CMA (Improved-CMA) algorithm that is possible to compensates of phase in CMA adatpve equalizer which is used for the elemination of intersymbol interference in the multipath fading and band limit characteristics of channel. The new cost function is proposed for the eliminate the amplitude and phase simulataneous by modifying the cost fuction for get the error signal in present CMA algorithm. It has a merit to the algorithm simplicities and eliminats the PLL device for phase compensation after equalization. For proving this, the recovered signal constellation that is the output of equalizer output signal and the residual isi and Maximum Distortion charateristic learning curve that are presents the convergence performance in the equalizer and the overall frequency transfer function of channel and equalizer were used. As a result of computer simulation, the I-CMA has more good compensation capability of amplitude and phas in the recovered constellation. But the convergence time is slow due to the simultaneously phase compensation.

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 this paper, a minimum Euclidian distance criterion between error PDF and Dirac delta function is introduced and a constant modulus type blind equalizer algorithm based on the criterion is proposed. The proposed algorithm using constant modulus error in place of actual error term of the criterion has superior convergence and steady state MSE performance, and the error signal of the proposed algorithm exhibits more concentrated density function in blind equalization environments. Simulation results indicate that the proposed method can be a reliable candidate for blind equalizer algorithms for multipoint communications.

This paper related with the DSE-MMA (Dithered Sign-Error MMA) that is the simplification of computational arithmetic number in blind equalization algorithm in order to compensates the intersymbol interference which occurs the passing the nonlinear communication channel in the presence of the band limit and phase distortion. The SE-MMA algorithm has a merit of H/W implementation for the possible to reduction of computational arithmetic number using the 1 bit quantizer in stead of multiplication in the updating the equalizer tap weight. But it degradates the overall blind equalization algorithm performance by the information loss at the quantization process compare to the MMA. The DSE-MMA which implements the dithered signed-error concepts by using the dither signal before qualtization are added to MMA, then the improved SNR performance which represents the roburstness of equalization algorithm are obtained. It has a concurrently compensation capability of the amplitude and phase distortion due to intersymbol interference like as the SE-MMA and MMA algorithm. The paper uses the equalizer output signal, residual isi, MD, MSE learning curve and SER curve for the performance index of blind equalization algorithm, and the computer simulation were performed in order to compare the SE-MMA and DSE-MMA applying the same performance index. As a result of simulation, the DSE-MMA can improving the roburstness and the value of every performance index after steady state than the SE-MMA, and confirmed that the DSE-MMA has slow convergence speed which meaning the reaching the seady state from initial state of adaptive equalization filter.

Information theoretic learning (ITL) methods based on random symbols (RS) use a set of random symbols generated according to a target distribution and are designed nonparametrically to minimize the cost function of the Euclidian distance between the target distribution and the input distribution. One drawback of the learning method is that it can not utilize the input power statistics by employing a constant stepsize for updating the algorithm. In this paper, it is revealed that firstly, information potential input (IPI) plays a role of input in the cost function-derivative related with information potential output (IPO) and secondly, input itself does in the derivative related with information potential error (IPE). Based on these observations, it is proposed to normalize the step-size with the statistically varying power of the two different inputs, IPI and input itself. The proposed algorithm in an communication environment of impulsive noise and multipath fading shows that the performance of mean squared error (MSE) is lower by 4dB, and convergence speed is 2 times faster than the conventional methods without step-size normalization.

This paper compare the adaptive equalization performance of RMMA (Region-based MMA) and SCA (Square Contour Algorithm) in order to minimize the intersymbol interference that is occurred in communication channel when transmit the multilevel QAM signal. The RMMA used for improving the performance by translate to 4-level constant modulus and stability in current MMA algorithm, and the SCA used for the improving the performacne by combines the current CMA and RCA algorithm. These algorithms are aimed to improving the equalization peformance by applying the differenct principle each other in multilevel QAM signal, its different performance were compared by computer simulation in the same channel environment. For this, the output signal constellation of equalizer, residual isi, maximum distortion were applied in performance index. As a result, RMMA have more fairly good in every performance index such as signal point clustering capabilities and convergence speed compared to SCA. It is confired that the equalization noise due to misadjumstment was reduced in RMMA than SCA.
