Equalization of Non Linear Optical Channels

چکیده
This paper presents a comparative analysis of various linear and nonlinear equalizers for a high density optical channel. Since the read-out process is nonlinear, a suitable model basedon the Volterra series has been adopted. In this work, we compare the performance and complexity of equalizers designed for linear and nonlinear channels. Specifically, Adaptive Minimum Mean Square Error (MSE), Adaptive Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE), Nonlinear Adaptive Volterra Equalizer (NAVE) and Nonlinear Adaptive Decision Feedback Equalizer (NDFE) are analyzed, along with the Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimator (MLSE), which is considered as a reference, Simulations show that the performance of classical structures (MSE, DFE, MLSE) is significantly reduced by the nonlinear response and that NAVE and NDFE achieve performance close to MLSE, with lower complexity.

Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization for Orthogonal STBC over Frequency-Selective MIMO-PLC channels
In this paper we propose a new space diversity scheme for broadband PLC systems using orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC) transmission combined with single-carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE). To apply this diversity technique to PLC channels, we first propose a new technique for combining SC-FDE with OSTBCs applicable to all dispersive multipath channels impaired by impulsive...
متن کاملMIMO Linear Equalization with an H ∞ Criterion
In this paper we study the problem of linearly equalizing the Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) communications channels from an H∞ point of view. H∞ estimation theory has been recently introduced as a method for designing filters that have acceptable performance in the face of model uncertainty and lack of statistical information on the exogenous signals. In this paper we obtain a closed-fo...

We investigate underwater acoustic (UWA) channel equalization and introduce hierarchical and adaptive nonlinear channel equalization algorithms that are highly efficient and provide significantly improved bit error rate (BER) performance. Due to the high complexity of nonlinear equalizers and poor performance of linear ones, to equalize highly difficult underwater acoustic channels, we employ p...
