A Rectangular Constellation-Based Blind Equalization Technique
نویسنده
چکیده
Blind equalization techniques have been developed over the past three decades that estimate and equalize communication channels without requiring training sequences and without channel knowledge. This article presents a new blind equalization algorithm with particular relevance to large-order, square or rectangular constellations. Comparisons with standard blind equalization methods are also presented.

Square contour algorithm for blind equalization of QAM signals
A new distance-adjusted approach is proposed in which static square contours are defined around an estimated symbol in a QAM constellation, which create regions that correspond to fixed step sizes and weighting factors. As a result, the equalizer tap adjustment consists of a linearly weighted sum of adaptation criteria that is scaled by a variable step size. This approach is the basis of two ne...
متن کاملBlind Equalization Based on pdf distance criteria and Performance Analysis
In this report, we address M-QAM blind equalization by fitting the probability density functions (pdf) of the equalizer output with the constellation symbols. We propose two new cost functions, based on kernel pdf approximation, which force the pdf at the equalizer output to match the known constellation pdf. The kernel bandwidth of a Parzen estimator is updated during iterations to improve the...
متن کاملStop-and-Go Algorithms for Blind Channel Equalization in QAM Data Communication Systems
This paper presents a framework of stop-and-go algorithms for the blind equalization of QAM data communication systems. Based on the proposed framework, three new stop-and-go algorithms are presented. It is discussed that each of the existing and proposed stop-and-go algorithm forces the equalizer output to match some statistical contour on QAM constellation space. Using computer simulations, i...
متن کامل16QAM Blind Equalization via Maximum Entropy Density Approximation Technique and Nonlinear Lagrange Multipliers
Recently a new blind equalization method was proposed for the 16QAM constellation input inspired by the maximum entropy density approximation technique with improved equalization performance compared to the maximum entropy approach, Godard's algorithm, and others. In addition, an approximated expression for the minimum mean square error (MSE) was obtained. The idea was to find those Lagrange mu...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Block-Based Eigenvector Equalization for Time-Varying Multipath Fading Channels
In this paper we present an adaptive BlockBased EigenVector Algorithm (BBEVA) for blind equalization of time-varying multipath fading channels. In addition we assess the performance of the new algorithm for different configurations and compare the results with the least mean squares (LMS) algorithm. The new algorithm is evaluated in terms of intersymbol interference (ISI) suppression, mean squa...
