An adaptive blind equalization is a technique using to minimize the Inter-symbol Interference occurred on a communication channel in the transmission of the high speed digital data. In this paper, we propose a blind equalization more improving performance of the conventional MSAGF-MMA adaptive blind equalization algorithm by applying a multiple step size. This algorithm apply a LMS algorithm with a several step size according to each region divided by absolute values of decision-directed error to MSAGF-MMA. By computer simulation, it is confirmed that the proposed algorithm has a performance highly enhanced in terms of a convergence speed, a residual ISI and a residual error and an ensemble averaged MSE in a steady status compared with MMA and MSAGF-MMA.

This paper is concerned with the performance analysis of MSAGF-MMA with variable step size whose step size varies according to input power signal and decision-directed error signal. The proposed algorithm is made to change according to the input power signal which can reliably increase the convergence speed to the steady state by making the step size less affected by the fluctuation of the input signal in the MMA having the binary flag obtained from the modified Stop-and-Go algorithm. At the same time, the step size can be varied according to the decision-directed error signal so that the residual error can be reduced in the steady state. As a result of computer simulations, it is confirmed that the proposed algorithm has a very good performance in the evaluation of residual ISI and averaged-MSE in steady state as well as in terms of convergence speed to steady state compared to MMA and MSAGF-MMA.

In this paper, we propose a dual-mode blind equalization algorithm that two of the blind equalization algorithm using the size of the decision-directed error signal is automatically switched. The proposed algorithm has a faster convergence speed due to operation of the MSAGF-SMMA with large fixed step-size mainly in the initial equalization. After the equalization has been made to some extent, the proposed algorithm has a smaller residual error in the steady- state by operation of the MSAGF-SMMA with a variable step-size mainly. The variable step-size is determined by multiplying the size of the decision-directed error signal of a fixed step-size. In this paper, we analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm. The computer simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has a significantly improved performance in terms of a residual inter-symbol interference and residual error in the steady-state compared with the MMA, SMMA, and MSAGF-SMMA.

In this paper, we propose a SMMA(Sliced-Multi Modulus Algorithm) adaptive blind equalization algorithm with Flag for high order QAM system. SMMA has improved characteristics by applying the multi contour to MMA. However, SMMA still has a limit that the mismatch problem causes the residual error in the steady state is large. In order to significantly reduce the residual error in the steady state, we propose SMMA, which is controlled by the binary Flag of '1 'or '0' obtained from SMMA and a decision-directed algorithm, and analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm. By computer simulation, it is confirmed that the proposed algorithm has improved performance highly in terms of a residual ISI and a residual error in the steady state compared with MMA and SMMA.
