چکیده

The purpose of semi-blind channel identi cation methods is to exploit the information used by blind methods and the information coming from known symbols. The main focus of this paper is the study of deterministic quadratic semi{ blind algorithms which are of particular interest because of their low computational complexity. The associated criteria are formed as a linear combination of a blind and a training sequence based criterion. Through the examples of Subchannel Response Matching and Subspace Fitting based semi{blind criteria, we study how to construct properly such semi{blind criteria and how to choose the weights of the linear combination. We provide a performance study for these algorithms and give theoretical conditions for the semi{blind performance to be independent of the weights.

Blind and semi-blind maximum likelihood methods for FIR multichannel identification

We investigate Maximum Likelihood (ML) methods for blind and semi-blind estimation of multiple FIR channels. Two blind Deterministic ML (DML) strategies are presented. In the first one, we propose to modify the Iterative Quadratic ML (IQML) algorithm in order to ”denoise” it and hence obtain consistent channel estimates. The second strategy, called Pseudo-Quadratic ML (PQML), is naturally asymp...

Semi-Blind Maximum-Likelihood Multichannel Estimation with Gaussian Prior for the Symbols using Soft Decisions

We present Maximum-Likelihood (ML) approaches to semi-blind estimation of multiple FIR channels. The first approach, DML, is based on a deterministic model. The second one, GML is based on a Gaussian model in which the input symbols are considered as Gaussian random variables: this model leads to better and more robust performance than DML. Algorithms are presented to solve DML and GML and the ...

Maximum-likelihood blind FIR multi-channel estimation with Gaussian prior for the symbols

We present two approaches to stochastic Maximum Likelihood identi cation of multiple FIR channels, where the input symbols are assumed Gaussian and the channel deterministic. These methods allow semi-blind identi cation, as they accommodate a priori knowledge in the form of a (short) training sequence and appears to be more relevant in practice than purely blind techniques. The two approaches a...

Two spatio-temporal decorrelation learning algorithms and their application to multichannel blind deconvolution

In this paper we present and compare two different spatio-temporal decorrelation learning algorithms for updating the weights of a linear feedforward network with FIR synapses (MIMO FIR filter). Both standard gradient and the natural gradient are employed to derive the spatio-temporal decorrelation algorithms. These two algorithms are applied to multichannel blind deconvolution task and their p...

Linear multichannel blind equalizers of nonlinear FIR Volterra channels

Truncated Volterra expansions model nonlinear systems encountered with satellite communications, magnetic recording channels, and physiological processes. A general approach for blind deconvolution of single-input multiple-output Volterra finite impulse response (FIR) systems is presented. It is shown that such nonlinear systems can be blindly equalized using only linear FIR filters. The approa...
