In this paper, a decision feedback recurrent neural equalization (DFRNE) scheme is proposed for adaptive equalization problems. The proposed equalizer models a nonlinear infinite impulse response (IIR) filter. The modified Real-Time recurrent Learning Algorithm (RTRL) is used to train the DFRNE. The DFRNE is applied to both linear channels with only intersymbol interference and nonlinear channels for digital video cassette recording (DVCR) system. And the performance of the DFRNE is compared to those of the conventional equalizaion schemes, such as a linear equalizer, a decision feedback equalizer, and neural equalizers based on multi-layer perceptron (MLP), in view of both bit error rate performance and mean squared error (MSE) convergence. It is shown that the DFRNE with a reasonable size not only gives improvement of compensating for the channel introduced distortions, but also makes the MSE converge fast and stable.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) combined with time division multiplexing (TDM), in this paper called OFDM/TDM, can overcome the high peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) problem of the conventional OFDM and improve the robustness against long time delays. In this paper, the bit error rate (BER) performance of OFDM/FDM in a frequency-selective Rayleigh fading. channel is evaluated by computer simulation. It is shown that the use of frequency-domain equalization based on minimum mean square error criterion (MMSE-FDE) can significantly improve the BER performance, compared to the conventional OFDM, by exploiting the channel frequency-selectivity while reducing the PAPR or improving the robustness against long time delays. It is also shown that the performance of OFDM/FDM designed to reduce the PAPR can bridge the conventional OFDM and single-carrier (SC) transmission by changing the design parameter.

In this paper, the characteristic of the equalizer using Lattice filter was investigated in channel ISI (Inter-Symbol Interference) in OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system. The equalizer using lattice filter has more fast convergence and little equalization error characteristic in two number of tap by orthogonal effect of each tap than another equalizers. The filter coefficient convergency and static BER (bit error ratio) characteristic was analysed by computer simulation. In this paper, it is shown that the equalizer using lattice filter has the better performance than a equalizer which makes use of another equalization method.

In this paper, we propose a new SO-MLSE(soft-output maximum likelihood sequence estimation) equalizer, which can be used in GSM digital cellular system) it uses complex correlation of training sequence to obtain the channel information and the equalization is performed by MLSE using Viterbi algorithm. In order to generate a soft-decision input to channel decoder (Viterbi decoder), the soft-output equalization algorithm is needed. The adopted algorithm doesn't require to modify the structure of HO-MLSE(hard output MLSE) equalizer, that is, SO-MLSE equalizer can be implemented by adding soft-output generation block to HO-MLSE equalizer. This algorithm uses the outputs of matched filter and HO-MLSE equalizer. It turns out that the complexity of proposed SO-MLSE equalizer is simpler than those of other SO-MLSE equalizer and its perforance is almost the same as those of others. Finally, the proposed SO-MLSE equalizer is also implemented s a prototype with ADSP-2101 16-bits fixed point digital signal processing chip.

Blind Equalization Method without training sequences is proposed for channel efficiency in mobile communication system for asynchronous multi-user DS-CDMA. the risk of mis-convergence of weak-power users is increased because of small regions of convergence in case of near-far effect in CMA(Constant Modulus Algorithm) which is the simplest has high performance and widely implemented. In despite the problem a equalization using Newton method has higher performance than a conventional method in squared error and eye-pattern.

We consider channel-coded multi-input multi-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission and obtain a condition on its signal for it to attain the maximum diversity and coding gain. As this condition may not be realizable, we propose a suboptimal design that employs an orthogonal transform and a space-frequency interleaver between the channel coder and the multi-antenna OFDM transmitter. We propose a corresponding receiving method based on block turbo equalization. Attention is paid to some detailed design of the transmitter and the receiver to curtail the computational complexity and yet deliver good performance. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed transmission technique can outperform the conventional coded MIMO OFDM and the MIMO block single-carrier transmission with cyclic prefixing.

In this paper, in order to speed up the convergence process and improve the steady mean square error simultaneously, we propose the Stop-and-Go Dual Mode Modified Constant Modulus Algorithm(SAG DM MCMA) for adaptive blind channel equalization of high order QAM. The proposed algorithm is a hybrid scheme of the Modified CMA that treat error signals with real and imaginary components of the equalizer output, the concept of dual mode CMA, and Stop-and-Go algorithm. As a result it can prevent blind equalization from converging to incorrect direction and simultaneously operates reliably for tap weight adaptation. We demonstrate via simulation that the proposed algorithm achieves lower steady state mean square error and residual ISI than the conventional algorithms under high order QAM signals and severe channel environment.

CMA (Constant Modulus Algorithm) is one of the famous algorithms in blind channel equalization. Generally, CMA converges slowly and the speed of convergence is dependent on a step-size in the CMA procedure. Many researches have tried to speed up the convergence speed by applying a variable step-size to CMA. In this paper, we propose a new CMA algorithm with improved convergence performance. The improvement comes from an orthogonal projection of an average error gradient. We show the improvement in simulation results.

The authors investigate the convergence speed problem of nonlinear adaptive equalization. Convergence constraints and time constant of radial basis function network using stochastic gradient (RBF-SG) algorithm is analyzed and a method of making time constant independent of hidden-node output power by using sample-by-sample node output power estimation is derived. The method for estimating the node power is to use a single-pole low-pass filter. It is shown by simulation that the proposed algorithm gives faster convergence and lower minimum MSE than the RBF-SG algorithm.

Recently, a considerable amount of attention is being given to the use of wavelets and neural network for modulation and equalization. We proposed a new scheme of equalization for constellation using discrete wavelet transform(DWT) and neural network. The DWT is used for noise reduction and the neural network is used to update the equalizer coefficients adaptively.
