An adaptive threshold detector and channel parameter estimator for deep space optical communications
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method for optimal adaptive setting of pulse-positionmodulation pulse detection thresholds, which minimizes the total probability of error for the dynamically fading optical free space channel, is presented. The threshold’s adaptive setting, in response to varying channel conditions, results in orders of magnitude improvement in probability of error, as compared to use of a fixed threshold. The adaptive threshold system itself is based on a robust channel identification system that uses average signal strengths to estimate the degree of fade and total attenuation in the channel, and a radial basis function network for estimating pulse spreads, all with excellent accuracy.

Discrete time robust control of robot manipulators in the task space using adaptive fuzzy estimator
This paper presents a discrete-time robust control for electrically driven robot manipulators in the task space. A novel discrete-time model-free control law is proposed by employing an adaptive fuzzy estimator for the compensation of the uncertainty including model uncertainty, external disturbances and discretization error. Parameters of the fuzzy estimator are adapted to minimize the estimat...
متن کاملAn asynchronous multiuser CDMA detector based on the Kalman filter
In this paper, we introduce a multiuser receiver based on the Kalman lter, which can be used for joint symbol detection and channel estimation. The proposed algorithm has the advantage of working even when the spreading codes used have a period larger than one symbol interval (\long codes"), unlike adaptive equalizer-type detectors. Simulation results which demonstrate the performance advantage...
متن کاملPerformance of adaptive MC-CDMA detectors in rapidly fading Rayleigh channels
Multicarrier code-division multiple access (MC-CDMA) combines multicarrier transmission with direct sequence spread spectrum. Recently, different approaches have been adopted which do not assume a perfectly known channel. In this paper, we examine the forward-link performance of decision-directed adaptive detection schemes, with and without explicit channel estimation, for MC-CDMA systems opera...
متن کاملAdmissible and Minimax Estimator of the Parameter $theta$ in a Binomial $Bin( n ,theta)$ distribution under Squared Log Error Loss Function in a Lower Bounded Parameter Space
Extended Abstract. The study of truncated parameter space in general is of interest for the following reasons: 1.They often occur in practice. In many cases certain parameter values can be excluded from the parameter space. Nearly all problems in practice have a truncated parameter space and it is most impossible to argue in practice that a parameter is not bounded. In truncated parameter...
متن کاملIndoor Non-directed Optical Wireless Communications - Optimization of the Lambertian Order
For an indoor non-directed line of sight optical wireless communication (NLOS-OWC) system we investigate the optimized Lambertian order (OLO) of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). We firstly derive an expression for the OLO from a conventional Lambertian LED model. Then, we analyze the indoor multi-cell NLOS-OWC channel characteristics including the optical power distribution and the multipath time ...
