This paper compared the performance with an overview of channel equalization techniques used in high-speed serial transceivers, including the homogeneous architecture and associated components for the GHz interconnect of backplane and cable channels. It also used the MATLAB tool to present system analysis and simulation results for continuous time equivalent structures. In the case of conventional continuous equalization, high frequency deficits occur due to the use of a comparator that is difficult to implement as well as the low speed limit. In this paper, the channel equalization technique based on the power spectrum analysis of clocks was used to compensate for the frequency loss, and the application of the TX+Channel and TX+Equalizer filters enabled the measurement of attenuation and equivalence without comparators. The application of blender and band-pass filters at high speeds also showed significant effectiveness.

In this paper, channel equalization techniques for full-digital HDTV systems are investigated Conventional equalization methods are surveyed and several channel are modeled for computer simulation. A VS-LMS (Variable Step size Least Mean Square) algorithm using the time constant concept is proposed and its performance is compared. Several equalization techniques for HDTV systems are simulated based on various channel models, and their characteristics are analyzed. Also the equalizer using fixed-point operations is simulated and its filter structure suitable for high bit rate transmission is also studied.

The iterative usage of soft outputs increases the performance of digital radio receiver. The feedback of reliability information reduces the channel estimation errors and increases the performance of equalization. This paper investigates the turbo equalization techniques for wireless cellular systems over continuous time varying channel. Simulation results over a GSM channel were presented.

In this paper, the performance of pre-equalization technique which can be applicable for the B-WLL uplink is evaluated and compared to post-equalization technique under three kinds of rain attenuation channels such as rain, intermittent light rain and thundershower. The BER performance comparisons of two algorithms (LMS and RLS) are investigated in the context of channel models and the length of training sequence. From the simulation results, it is shown that the post-equalization outperforms only at quite good channel conditions such as AWGN, while the pre-equalization can guarantee better BER performance at every channel conditions, especially performance gain increases as the severity of channel increases. It is concluded that the pre-equalizer using LMS algorithm is preferable at delay-tolerant situation where the complexity of algorithm is not a strict factor, while one using RLS is suitable for fast burst transmission with a relatively short training sequence.

For decreasing intersymbol interference (ISI) due to band-limited channels in digitalcommunication, the uses of equalization techniques are necessary. Among the useful adaptive equalization techniques, because of their ease of implementation and nonlinear capabilites, the neural networks have been used as an alternative for effectively dealing with the channel distortion. In this paepr, a complex-valued multilayer percepron is proposed as a nonlinear adaptive equalizer. After the important properties that a suitable complex-valued activation function must possess are discussed, a new complex-valued activation function is developed for the proposed schemes to deal with M-ary QAM signals of any constellation sizes. It has been further proven that by the nonlinear transformation of the proposed function, the correlation coefficient between the real and imaginary parts of input data decreases when they are jointly Gaussian random variables. Lastly, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by simulations. The proposed scheme provides, compared with the linear equalizer using the least mean squares (LMS) algorith, an interesting improvement concerning Bit Error Rate (BER) when channel distortions are nonlinear.

In this paper, a method of designing the efficient batch blind equalization with low complexity using a micro genetic algorithm (GA), is presented. In general, the blind equalization techniques that are focused on the complexity reduction might be carried out with minor effect on the performance. Among the advanced various subjects in the field of GAs, a micro genetic algorithm is employed to identity the unknown channel impulse response in order to reduce the search space effectively. A new cost function with respect to the constant modulus criterion is suggested considering its relation to the Wiener criterion. We provide simulation results to show the superiority of the proposed techniques compared to other existing techniques.

High-speed I/O channels require adaptive techniques to optimize the settings for filter tap weights at decision feedback equalization (DFE) read channels to compensate for channel inter-symbol interference (ISI) and crosstalk from multiple adjacent channels. Both ISI and crosstalk tend to vary with channel length, process, and temperature variations. Individually optimizing parameters such as those just mentioned leads to suboptimal solutions. We propose a joint optimization technique for crosstalk cancellation (XTC) at DFE to compensate for both ISI and XTC in high-speed I/O channels. The technique is used to compensate for between 15.7 dB and 19.7 dB of channel loss combined with a variety of crosstalk strengths from $60mV_{p-p}$ to $180mV_{p-p}$ adaptively, where the transmit non-return-to-zero signal amplitude is a constant $500mV_{p-p}$.

For the last decade, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have been commonly applied to communications channel equalization. The major problems of gradient-based learning techniques, employed to train recurrent neural networks are slow convergence rates and long training sequences. In high-speed communications system, short training symbols and fast convergence speed are essentially required. In this paper, the derivative-free Kalman filter, so called the unscented Kalman filter (UKF), for training a fully connected RNN is presented in a state-space formulation of the system. The main features of the proposed recurrent neural equalizer are fast convergence speed and good performance using relatively short training symbols without the derivative computation. Through experiments of nonlinear channel equalization, the performance of the RNN with a derivative-free Kalman filter is evaluated.

In this paper we propose Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques for the Equalization Digital On-Channel Repeater(EDOCR) in the ATSC digital TV (DTV) System. DSP techniques consist of demodulation. baseband equalization, and remodulation. Since the time delay caused by signal processing in the EDOCR can seriously affect the performance of ATSC legacy receivers, it is required that the processing time should be minimized as much as possible. To achieve this goal, we focus on the reduction of the EDOCR's time delay with the minimization of its performance degradation. In addition, we present recommended proper parameters for hardware implementation based on extensive simulation result.
