Joint Equalization and Soft Decoding for Vector Quantization over Channels with Intersymbol Interference
نویسندگان
چکیده
An approach to joint equalization and decoding for vector quantization over a Gaussian channel with intersymbol interference is presented. The decoder is based on a Hadamard transform representation of the vector quantizer. This gives the decoder a structure that allows the decoding to be based on estimates of the transmitted bits in an efficient manner. The decoder is soft in the sense that soft channel information is used and no decisions are involved in the decoding. Simulations demonstrate that the soft decoder can outperform a scheme based on Viterbi equalization plus table look-up decoding.

Joint source channel coding over channels with intersymbol interference using vector channels and discrete multitone
We investigate joint source channel coding for channels with intersymbol interference (ISI) where the source coder is a vector quantizer. In our previous work we used a block MAP equalizer, which takes into account the residual correlation between the VQ outputs and also provides for soft decisions to improve the performance. In this paper we propose the use of a vector channel approach and dis...
متن کاملJoint Successive Cancellation Decoding of Polar Codes over Intersymbol Interference Channels
Polar codes are a class of capacity-achieving codes for the binary-input discrete memoryless channels (B-DMCs). However, when applied in channels with intersymbol interference (ISI), the codes may perform poorly with BCJR equalization and conventional decoding methods. To deal with the ISI problem, in this paper a new joint successive cancellation (SC) decoding algorithm is proposed for polar c...

This paper addresses the problem of soft equalization for space–time-coded transmissions over frequency-selective fading channels. The structure of the space–time code is embedded in the channel impulse response for efficient joint equalization and decoding. The proposed equalization/decoding approach uses a prefilter to concentrate the effective channel power in a small number of taps followed...

متن کاملA Bidirectional List-Sequential (BI-LISS) Equalizer for Turbo Schemes
In the context of coded transmission over intersymbol interference channels we investigate a bidirectional list-sequential equalizer (BI-LISS) suitable for turbo schemes. Especially for channels with an unmanageable high number of states for a trellis based APP equalization this sequential algorithm shows almost optimal performance with much smaller complexity. Generally, the list-sequential (L...
