چکیده

The problem of automatic gain control (AGC) for DFE (decision feedback equalization) read channels is addressed. We analyze an existing AGC algorithm that uses slicer input for deriving the gain error signal and show that it suffers from ambiguity in the control direction of AGC loop due to the presence of feedback equalizer. This could result in slow convergence and possible instability problems. A new AGC scheme has been proposed to overcome this ambiguity and it uses the sign of the forward equalizer output instead of slicer input to control the AGC loop direction. Simulation results show good acquisition and tracking performances of the new scheme under noisy circumstances.

Performance of a Precoded High Speed Wireless Communication System over Time-varying Indoor Channels

A detailed and realistic time-varying channel model is used in the simulation of a 20-Mbps indoor wireless communication system that uses a DFE on the reverse link and a Tomlinson-Harashima precoder on the forward link to mitigate ISI. The motivation of such an asymmetric scheme is to minimize the hardware complexity of the portable unit. Results confirm the viability of this system by quantify...

Adaptive noncoherent DFE for MDPSK signals transmitted over ISI channels

In this paper, a novel noncoherent decision{feedback equalization (NDFE) scheme for M{ary di erential phase shift{keying (MDPSK) signals transmitted over intersymbol interference (ISI) channels is presented. A suboptimum version with lower computational complexity and a noncoherent linear equalizer (NLE) are derived from the original NDFE scheme. Furthermore, the relation of the novel NLE to a ...

ECE1352F Term Paper Decision Feedback Equalizers and their Application to Magnetic Storage Read Channels

Intersymbol interference (ISI) can be a major speed-limiting factor in high-speed communications links, and must be mitigated to achieve an acceptable bit-error rate (BER). One efficient method of ISI mitigation is channel equalization using a decision-feedback equalizer (DFE) [1]. One system in which DFEs have been implemented extensively to combat severe ISI is the magnetic storage read chann...
