چکیده

A high-speed data-communication over low-voltage power line has become a hot research topic for electrical advancements in recent years. Power-line communication (PLC), based on orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), is developing rapidly. OFDM is used for high speed data communications. However, it is unable to deal with the orthogonality degradation between the subchannels due to the time-variant characteristics of the multipath power-line channels, which is known as the Inter Channel Interference (ICI) problem. In this paper we propose a nonlinear equalizer based on Multilayer Perceptron trained with a mean square error (MSE) criterion to eliminate the ICI. In this paper first linear equalizer is designed with LMS algorithm. We compare the performance of linear equalizer and nonlinear equalizer based on constellation error probability.

Complex bilinear recurrent neural network for equalization of a digital satellite channel

Equalization of satellite communication using complex-bilinear recurrent neural network (C-BLRNN) is proposed. Since the BLRNN is based on the bilinear polynomial, it can be used in modeling highly nonlinear systems with time-series characteristics more effectively than multilayer perceptron type neural networks (MLPNN). The BLRNN is first expanded to its complex value version (C-BLRNN) for dea...
