Abstract

We propose a robust blind equalization algorithm based on dual-mode algorithm which incorporates a stop-and-go technique. The constant modulus algorithm(CMA) exhibits very slow convergence when applied to QAM signals and generates phase error. We show that convergence properties of the dual-mode MCMA can be significantly improved by simply adding a stop-and-go technique. To speed up the convergence rate, the TMA-MCMA operates in triple mode that is based on the dual-mode of the MCMA incorporated with the tap-updating control modes of the SGA.
