For high-speed data communication in band-limited channels, main of the bit error are fading and ISI(Inter-Symbol Interference). The common way of dealing with ISI is using equalization in the receiver. In this thesis, channel adaptive equalizer which uses Fuzzy Stochastic Gradient(FSG) and Constant Modulus Algorithm(CMA) is nonlinear equalizer, or Blind equalizer, that works directly on the signals with no training sequences required. This equalizer employs Takagi-Sugeno's fuzzy model that uses the FSG algorithm, to automatically regulate the step size of the descent gradient vector, combining fast convergence rate and low mean square error(MSE), and the CMA which is a special case of Godard's algorithm, to having multiple dispersion constants($R_p$).

In this paper, adaptive equalizer receiver for a turbo code direct sequence code division multiple access (DSCDMA) by using least mean square (LMS) adaptive algorithm is presented. The proposed adaptive equalizer is using soft output of decision feedback adaptive equalizer (DFE) to examines the output of the equalizer and the Log- maximum a posteriori (Log-MAP) algorithm for the turbo decoding process of the system. The objective of the proposed equalizer is to minimize the bit error rate (BER) of the data due to the disturbances of noise and intersymbol interference (ISI)phenomenon on the channel of the DS-CDMA digital communication system. The computer program simulation results shown that the proposed soft output decision feedback adaptive equalizer provides a good BER than the others one such as conventional adaptive equalizer, infinite impulse response adaptive equalizer.

Multipath Rayleigh fading channels for mobile radio transmission can be represented by the linear filter model, and depending on the delay path characteristics, only a selected number of taps may have significance in the receiver structure design. By using tap-selective equalization, reduction in both processing complexity and power consumption can be obtained. In this paper, we present an optimal tap selection method for a given channel model, and demonstrate the performance improvement over an existing method. We show the method performs the CFAR (Constant False Alarm Rate) detection when the noise power information is available, and derive exact expressions of the error probability for the case of noise power estimation. Using the derived formulas and simulation results, it is demonstrated that the error probability quickly approaches to the optimal performance as the number samples used for the noise power estimation increases.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a attractive modulation scheme for high data rate transmission in frequency-selective channels. However, the time selectivity of wireless channel introduces intercarrier interference (ICI), and consequently degrades system performance. In this paper, we first propose a novel recursive algorithm for minimum mean squared error (MMSE) with successive interference cancellation (SIC). The proposed algorithm can significantly reduce the complexity of the MMSE-SIC scheme and achieve the same performance when optimal ordering is known. Also, the further reduced scheme of the proposed algorithm can be developed based on ICI properties, while preserving performance.

In this paper, a new alternating equalizer and its differential adjustment algorithm are proposed. The proposed alternating equalizer achieves equalization effectively using an algorithm performing symbol decisions based on soft/hard decision. In addition, it is possible to improve the initial blind convergence speed and steady-state error performance simultaneously by adjusting the equalizer differentially according to the relative reliability of the symbol decisions by soft/hard decision devices. The simulation results on 16/64-QAM constellations under multipath propagation channel and additive noise conditions confirmed to support usefulness of the proposed method.

차세대 이동통신 시스템은 고속의 멀티미디어 데이터의 신뢰성 있는 전송을 요구하고 다양한 전파환경에서 신뢰성 있는 음성, 데이터, 영상서비스 등의 다양한 서비스를 제공한다. 하지만 광대역 무선 접속을 지원하는 다중 접속 기술은 DS-CDMA(Direct Sequence Code Division Multiple Access) 시스템에서 시스템 성능을 저하시키는 심벌간 간섭(ISI) 혹은 다중접속간섭(MAI) 신호를 발생시킨다. 이러한 간섭 신호를 개선하기 위해 적응 블라인드 등화 방식을 사용하는데 적응 블라인드 등화 방식 중에서도 가장 많이 이용하는 Constant Modulus Algorithm(CMA)을 적절한 초기화 없이 사용하면 ill-convergence 현상이 나타난다. 본 논문에서는 채널의 효율을 높이기 위한 등화 방식으로 기존의 NCMA 알고리듬을 이용한 새로운 블라인드 등화 방식(Modified NCMA)을 제안하고, 이를 비동기 DS-CDMA 시스템의 다중 사용자 환경에서 컴퓨터 모의 실험 및 성능분석을 하였다. 제안한 등화 방식의 자승오차(SE : Squared Error)의 개선은 spreading gain 31과 127에 대해 cell 내의 사용자가 10명일 때 약 17dB 정도이고, 사용자가 15, 25명으로 증가시킴에 따라 자승오차의 개선은 각각 20dB, 15dB 정도로 전체 평균 자승오차는 약 17.3dB 정도로 개선됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

Filtered multi-tone (FMT) is a form of multicarrier modulation utilizing frequency-domain equalization efficient in multi-path fading channels. Doppler frequency information can be employed for channel estimation and link adaptation to improve the performance. However, most previous studies have concentrated on the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) instead of FMT. Moreover, they have not considered the synchronization error that can commonly occur in practical systems. In this paper, we propose Doppler frequency estimation scheme that is effective in FMT systems with residual synchronization error and high noise levels.

This paper discusses cyclostationary interference suppression for multiuser wired communication systems. Crosstalk interference from digital signals in multipair cables has been shown to be cyclostationary. Many crosstalk equalization or suppression techniques have been proposed which make implicit use of the cyclostationarity of the crosstalk interferer. In this paper, the convergence and steady-state behaviors of a fractionally spaced equalizer (FSE) in the presence of multiple cyclostationary crosstalk interference are thoroughly analyzed by using the equalizer's eigenstructure. The eigenvalues with multiple cyclostationary interference depend upon the folded signal and interferer power spectra, the cross power spectrum between the signal and the interferer, and tile cross power spectrum between the interferers, which results in significantly different initial convergence and steady-state behaviors as compared to the stationary noise case. The performance of the equalizer varies depending on the relative clock phase of the symbol clocks used by the signal and multiple interferers. Measued characteristics as well as analytical model of NEXT/FEXT channel are used to compute the optimum and worst relative clock phases among the signal and multiple interferers.

In this paper, the Euclidean distance between the probability density functions (PDFs) for biased errors and a Dirac-delta function located at zero on the error axis is proposed as a new performance criterion for adaptive systems in non-Gaussian noise environments. Also, based on the proposed performance criterion, a supervised adaptive algorithm is derived and applied to adaptive equalization in the shallow-water communication channel distorted by severe multipath fading, impulsive and DC-bias noise. The simulation results compared with the performance of the existing MEDE algorithm show that the proposed algorithm yields over 5 dB of MSE enhancement and the capability of relocating the mean of the error PDF to zero on the error axis.
