In this paper we propose a matched decoding scheme for convolutionally encoded transmission over intersymbol interference (ISI) channels and devise a nonlinear trellis description. As an application we show that for coded continuous phase modulation (CPM) using a non–coherent receiver the number of states of the super trellis can be significantly reduced by means of a matched non–linear trellis...

Intersymbol interference (ISI) is a major cause of degradation in the receiver performance of high-speed data communications systems. This arises mainly due to limited bandwidth available. The minimum Euclidean distance between any two symbol sequences is an important parameter in this case at moderate to high signal to noise ratios. It is proven here that as ISI increases the minimum distance ...

This letter investigates electrophoretic molecular communication (EMC) operating in circular duct channels. EMC utilizes the time-varying force that can controllably induce movement of charged particles to enhance performance. In channels, where memory component is high, intersymbol interference (ISI) must be considered. Thus, this presents a method design an electric field under framework calc...

During initialization, discrete multitone receivers train a time domain equalizer (TEQ) to shorten the channel impulse response to a preset length, ν + 1. Arslan, Kiaei, and Evans report a Minimum Intersymbol Interference (Min-ISI) method for TEQ design. Min-ISI TEQs give the highest bit rates among single-FIR TEQs amenable to real-time implementation on programmable fixed-point digital signal ...

Blind adaptive multiuser detection for direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) signals over static and time-varying intersymbol interference (ISI) limited channels is considered. Blind adaptive detectors must be robustified for ISI channels, when there is significant mismatch between the received signature vector and the transmitted code (assumed known at the receiver). A new lo...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems suffer from performance deterioration when the length of Cyclic Prefix (CP) is shorter than the Channel Impulse Response (CIR). The fundamental reason of this impairment is the InterCarrier Interference (ICI) and InterSymbol Interference (ISI) introduced by the excessive multipath delay. Specifically, Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO...

Smart antenna using multiple antennas exploring the SDMA technology has been used in wireless communication systems which provides higher spectrum efficiency, improved link quality and throughput through frequency reuse, reduction of intersymbol interference (ISI) and co-channel interference rejection (CCI)[1]. Space Division Multiple Access, where multiple user signals are simultaneously trans...

This paper presents an alternative approach for signal detection and equalization using the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and the artificial neural network (ANN) in diffuse indoor optical wireless links (OWL). The wavelet analysis is used for signal pre-processing (feature extraction) and the ANN for signal detection. Traditional receiver architectures based on matched filter (MF) experien...

ment of wireless communication systems in recent years, especially for broadband multiuser communication systems which severely suffer from intersymbol interference (ISI) and multiple access interference (MAI). This article reviews batch processing algorithms for blind equalization using higher-order statistics for mitigation of the ISI induced by single-input, single-output channels as well as...

Transmitting digital information using ultra-short pulses, impulse radio (IR) has received increasing interest for multiple access (MA). When IRMA systems have to operate in dense multipath environments, the multiple user interference (MUI) and intersymbol interference (ISI) induced, adversely affect system capacity and performance. Analog IRMA utilizes pulse position modulation (PPM) and rando...
