In digital communication system that the Modified Constant Modulus Algorithm (MCMA) reduced the use of the adaptive equalization algorithm to combat the Inter-symbol Interference (ISI). MCMA is relatively brief operation. The major point of MCMA that it only achieves moderate convergence rate and steady state mean square error (MSE). In this paper suggest, MCMA equalization improve the performance with parallel structure. It combines Modified Constant Modulus Algorithm(MCMA) and Modified Decision Directed(MDD) algorithm. By exploiting the inherent structural relationship between the 4-QAM signal's coordinates and 16-QAM signal's coordinates, another style of cost function for Modified Constant Modulus Algorithm(MCMA) is defined and If it happen to offset of received signals and MCMA is poor performance in order to overcome this because the paper combines apply for MCMA and MDD(Modified Decision Direct) algorithm. By computer simulation, we confirmed that the proposed PMCMA-MDD algorithm has the fater convergence rate and steady mean square error than the conventional MCMA.

The 8-VSB modulation, the transmission standard for the terrestrial digital television(DTV) of the Advanced Television Systems Committee(ATSC), suffers from multipath fading because it conveys information on the amplitude. To solve this problem, decision feedback equalizers(DFE's) have been commonly used in terrestrial DTV receivers. However, under severe channels, such as a 0 dB ghost channel or a single frequency network (SFN) channel, the DFE shows unstable convergence due to the error propagation caused by decision errors. Instead of unstable time-domain DFE schemes, by proposing a frequency-domain direct-inversion equalization method, we try to guarantee stable equalization and achieve low symbol error rates. To secure the existence of a channel inverse, channel-matched filtering and noncausal filtering are carried out prior to equalization. Simulation results show that the proposed method performs much better than existing DFE schemes in terms of both the stability and the symbol error rate.

Experimental work in underwater acoustic communications using passive phase conjugation has shown that the demodulation error depends on the relative drift rate between the source and receiver [Rouseff et al., IEEE J. Oceanic Eng. 26, 821-831 (2001)]. The observed effect involves the mismatch between the initial impulse response and the subsequent response after the source or receiver has changed locations. In the present work, the effect of drifting source is analyzed by numerical simulations and compared to the experimental results. The communications bit error rate is qualified as a function of drift rate, drifting direction, and source-receiver range.

Underwater acoustic wave in shallow water is propagated through multipath that has a large delay spread causing Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) and these characteristics deteriorate the performance in the communication system. In order to analyze the communication performance and investigate the correlation with multipath delay spread in a reverberant environment, an underwater acoustic communication experiment using Binary Phase-Shift Keying (BPSK) signals with symbol rates from 100 sym/s to 8000 sym/s was conducted in a 5 × 5 × 5 m³ water tank. The acoustic channels in a well-controlled tank environment had the characteristics of dense multipath delay spread due to multiple reflections from the interfaces and walls within the tank and showed the maximum excess delay of 40 ms or less, and the Root Mean Squared (RMS) delay spread of 8 ms or less. In this paper, the performances of Bit Error Rate (BER) and output Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) were analyzed using four types of communication demodulation techniques. And the parameter, Symbol interval to Delay spread Ratio in reverberant environment (SDR_rev), which is the ratio of symbol interval to RMS delay spread in the reverberant environment is defined. Finally, the SDR_rev was compared to the BER and the output SNR. The results present the reference symbol rate in which high communication performance can be guaranteed.

A protocol is proposed to control the rate of each subcarrier in OFDM-based wireless network systems. The proposed protocol adds an OFDM symbol in CTS frame defined in IEEE 802.11 standard. A receiver determines the rate of its subcarrier after it receives the RTS frame. The determined rate is added to OFDM symbol in CTS frame. In order to synchronize the rate information between the sender and the receiver, error recovery process is proposed. The performance improvement of the proposed method is shown by numerical results.

In this paper, we propose a simple scaling algorithm for CDMA mobile communications where a voice traffic signals are transmitted by individual one of several data rates at every frames. The traditional method is based on using look-up table called SMT(symbol metric table), but the proposed algorithm is real-time direct scaling method through simple bit manipulations without lookup table. The bit error rate performance is calculated by computer simulation over AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels. From the results, it is shown that the proposed algorithm outperforms the traditional SMT method on Rayleigh channel by 0.3∼0.8dB, while achieving the less H/W complexity.

This paper investigates the performance of an amplify-and-forward (AF) two-way relaying system with antenna correlation. The system consists of two multiple-antenna sources, which exchange information via the aid of a single-antenna relay. In particular, we derive the exact outage probability expression. Furthermore, we provide a simple, tight closed-form lower bound for the outage probability. Based on the lower bound, we obtain the closed-form asymptotic outage probability and the average symbol error rate expressions at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), which reveal the system's diversity order and coding gain with antenna correlation. To investigate the system's throughput performance with antenna correlation, we also derive a closed-form lower bound for the average sum-rate, which is quite tight from medium to high SNR regime. The analytical results readily enable us to obtain insight into the effect of antenna correlation on the system's performance. Extensive Monte Carlo simulations are conducted to verify the analytical results.

STBC is a technique where a multiple antenna signals are transmitted. With this technique, antenna diversity can be achieved. The performance of STBC OFDM system using pilot symbol for the channel estimation is analyzed. IEEE 802.16e standards suggest that the BER performance of STBC system can be improved using channel state information. Pilot symbol is used for the channel estimation in OFDM systems. However, imperfect channel estimates in this systems degrade the performance. The performance of this STBC OFDM systems using channel state information, gauged by the average bit error rate, is analyzed considering the channel estimation error.

In this paper, the selective normalized constant modulus algorithm(SNCMA) is applied to a fractionally spaced equalizer. The fractionally spaced equalizer is insensitive to the sampling timing because it processes received signals with the sampling rate larger than the symbol rate. The SNCMA improves the convergence rate by using the large step size for the most outer covering symbol belonging to the trust-level. This blind equalizer exhibits a fast start-up convergence rate as well as a reduced steady-state residual error compared to the fractionally spaced blind equalizer and the T-spaced blind equalizer using conventional blind algorithms.
