In this paper, a performance comparison between two blind signal estimation algorithms in a LTI channel is considered. The two algorithms, Iterative Least-Squares with Projection (ILSP) and a modified ILSP, are based on the finite-alphabet property of input symbols. This case typically arises in a multiple access system with a sensor array antenna at the receiving end. We start with the formulation of a maximum-likelihood (ML) estimation problem under an additive white Gaussian noise assumption. A blind ML estimator is derived with its iterative algorithm for calculation. Then we narrow down the consideration of this problem to QPSK case so that a modified algorithm is proposed for $\pi$/4-QPSK case. The modified version is compared with the original ILSP algorithm in terms of the rate of the convergence to global minima. A computer simulation shows that the modified algorithm gives a better performance. This result implies that the performance of the blind separation algorithms may be greatly improved by adopting a smart coding scheme with rich structure.

Blind equalizers recover the transmitted data using signal's statistical characteristics only. Because of its computational simplicity and fast convergence rate, CMA is widely used in practice. Blind equalizers, however, converge much slowly than conventional equalizers which use the training signals. In order to improve the convergence rate, many modified blind equalization algorithms have been proposed. Among those, Normalized CMA (NCMA) was applied to increase the convergence rate by using the large step size. Unfortunately it can only be applied for the constant modulus signal constellation scheme. this paper, we propose the Selective NCMA (SNCMA) that improve the convergence rate of blind equalization algorithms by using NCMA for non-constant modulus signalling method such as QAM constellation. We achieved fast start-up convergence rate and reduced steady-state residual error.

The objective of this study is to develop the blind control strategy and method which reduce negative effect of incoming daylight on visual comfort of occupants, minimize psychological anxieties caused by frequent motions of a blind, and maximize positive effect of incoming daylight and solar irradiation by opening/closing of a blind. As previous researches on blind controls have limited outdoor environmental conditions to those in specific regions, orientations and dates, these resulted in problems at various conditions for general-purpose application. Major problem is that the time interval and amount of blind movement do not meet the control objective at the end of control zone and discontinuous curve. To overcome these limitations revealed in the previous researches, following tasks were performed in this study. 1) To establish the control objective to accomplish the goal of this study. 2) To develop the control methods and algorithms which prevent glare on the work-plane at any time and which control the time interval and amount of blind movement to follow the control objective at various profile angle curves. 3) To validate the general-purpose applicability and performance of the developed control methods and algorithms by simulation and its data analysis at various conditions. It was found that the proposed methods and algorithms can prevent the direct glare on the work-plane at all the time and also increase the incoming daylight and solar irradiation.

In this paper, we propose two novel blind LMS algorithms, called exponential step sire LMS algorithms (ES-LMS), for adaptive array antennas whose convergence speed is increased, hence they are much more capable of tracking the desired signal than the conventional LMS algorithms. Both of the algorithms require neither spatial knowledge nor reference signals since they use the finite symbol property of digital signal. Computer simulations were carried cot in CDMA environment affected by multi-path Rayleigh fading to verify the performance of the two proposed algorithms.

This paper Introduces three well-known blind watermarking algorithms in terms of signal processing aspects. Those three methods include correlation-based, echo-hiding, and patchwork algorithms. Those algorithms can be applied either in time-domain (or equivalently spatial-domain) or frequency-domain (or equivalently transform-domain). This paper describes watermark embedding and detection algorithms as well as basic ideas for those watermarking algorithms. In addition, we include some experimental results.

For complex channel blind equalization, this study presents the performance and characteristics of two complex blind information theoretic learning algorithms (ITL) which are based on minimization of Euclidian distance (ED) between probability density functions compared to constant modulus algorithm which is based on mean squared error (MSE) criterion. The complex-valued ED algorithm employing constant modulus error and the complex-valued ED algorithm using a self-generated symbol set are analyzed to have the fact that the cost function of the latter forces the output signal to have correct symbol values and compensate amplitude and phase distortion simultaneously without any phase compensation process. Simulation results through MSE convergence and constellation comparison for severely distorted complex channels show significantly enhanced performance of symbol-point concentration with no phase rotation.

This paper studied adaptive blind equalizer which belong to Bussgang type. It is well known that blind equalizer performs equalization without using a training sequence. Especially, this paper concentrated on real time processing of them. The channel characteristic was obtained from measurements taken in a real urban multipath environment. A T/2 fractionally-spaced equalizer was used at the receiving end. Our computer simulations demonstrated that Stop and Go, Benveniste-Goursat, and optimal Bussgang algorithms have relatively low MSE property. CMA shows faster convergence property than any other of Bussgang type algorithm.

We propose two robust blind equalization algorithms based on multi-stage clustering blind equalization algorithm, which are called a complex classification update algorithm(CCUA) and an error compensation algorithm(ECA). The first algorithm is a tap-updating algorithm which each computes classified real and imaginary parts in order to reduce computations and the complexity of implementation as a stage increase. The second one is a algorithm which can achieve faster convergence speed because error of equalizer input make always fixed. Test results confirm that the proposed algorithms with faster convergence and lower complexity outperforms both constant modulus algorithm (CMA) and conventional multi-stage blind clustering algorithm(MSA) in reducing the SER as well as the MSE at the equalizer output.
