Doppler Effect is a prominent obstacle in vehicular networks, which dramatically increase the Bit-Error-Rate (BER). This problem is accompanied with the presence of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems in which the Doppler shift interrupts the subcarriers orthogonality. Additionally, Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) and high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) are likely to occur which corrupt the received signal. In this paper, the single-carrier combined with the frequency domain equalizer (SC-FDE) is utilized as an alternative to the OFDM over the IEEE 802.11p uplink vehicular channels. The Minimum Mean Squared Error (MMSE) and Zero-Forcing (ZF) are employed in order to study the impact of these equalization techniques along with the SC-FDE on the propagation medium. In addition, we aim to enhance the BER, improve the transmitted signal quality and achieve ISI and PAPR mitigation. The proposed schemes are investigated and we found that the MMSE outperforms the ZF equalization under different Doppler shift effects and modulations.

In this paper we propose an electronic domain timing phase selection scheme for the optical communication systems suffering from inter-symbol-interference (ISI) distortion due to chromatic dispersion (CD) or polarization mode dispersion (PMD). In the presence of CD/PMD a proper timing phase selection is important for discrete time domain equalizers, since different timing phases produce different nonlinear ISI channels of different severity. The proposed timing phase recovery scheme based on dispersion minimization (DM) practically approximates the optimal minimum mean squared error (MMSE) timing phase without training signals which reduces overall throughput substantially, especially in time-varying channels such as PMD. The simulation results show that the proposed DM timing agrees with MMSE timing phase, under proper normalization of the received signals, for various dispersion and OSNR.

In this paper, we propose a new symbol offset estimation technique for an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)-based wireless LAN. When both inter-symbol interference (ISI) and inter-channel interference (ICI) do not exist in an OFDM symbol, symbol offsets cause circular shifts in the estimated channel impulse response (CIR) by the amount of symbol offset. Also, the power delay profile of a typical multipath wireless channel can be modeled by exponentially decaying function, and most energy of multipath channel is concentrated at the beginning part of the CIR. Based on these properties, the proposed symbol offset estimation technique estimates the CIR, which is circularly shifted by the amount of symbol offset, and then calculates the partial mean power from the estimated impulse response by using a moving window with a finite length. And, symbol offset can be estimated from the index of a moving window having the maximal partial mean power. The proposed technique can reduce noise effect in the process of the CIR estimation, and remove ISI and ICI using repetitive training symbol structure in time-domain for minimum training overhead. The performances of the proposed symbol offset estimation technique in typical indoor channels are demonstrated by computer simulation.

In binary digital transmission system the band-limiting is required for the better transmission efficiency. But in the case of band-limiting the intersymbol-interference (ISI) usually takes place. In this paper, in an attempt to design band-limiting filter which has minimum ISI and maximum stop-band loss, first, making use of analog filter by combining Binary Transversal Filter (BTF) and analog filter (4th Butterworhfilter), we found the value that minimizes ISI phenomenon by getting step response of rectangular pulse resulting from BTF in time domain. Second, we found filter characteristic we want to in frequency domain for band-limiting and minimized the error. And then we obtained resistor value (Tap coefficient) in order to design algorithm for optimum filter. Also we showed the example of simulation in case we established the resistors with 3,5 and 7 respectively. With 7 resistors set, we identified that the ripple of about minus 30dB was taken place.

The third generation mobile communications system requiring the reliable multimedia data transmission has provided with the reliable voice, data and video services over the variable propagation environment. However the broadband wireless multiple access technologies cause Inter Symbol Interference(ISI) or Multiple Access Interference(MAI) to degrade the performance of CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access) system. Constant Modulus Algorithm which is frequently used as the adaptive blind equalizers to remove the interfering signal has ill-convergence phenomenon without proper initialization. In this paper, new blind equalization method based on conventional CMA is proposed to improve the channel efficiency, and through computer simulation this is tested over the time varying fading environment of mobile communication system. consequently, new blind equalization method into concatenated Kalman filter with CMA is verified better than conventional CMA through adopting minimum mean square errors and eye-pattern obtained from algorithm are compared.

We propose a weighted time-reversal prefilter for indoor wireless communication systems. In the indoor wireless communication environments, the bit error rate (BER) performance is significantly degraded by the delay spread. The conventional schemes have complex receivers to recover deterioration of the BER. The proposed time-reversal prefilter simplifies the structure of receivers, minimizes the inter-symbol interference (ISI) and maintains the peak power level of the received signal. The simulation results show that the weighted time-reversal prefilter improves the BER performance in comparison with the conventional time-reversal prefilter.

We propose a double time reversal (TR) prefilter for high data rate and minimum interference in multi-user indoor communication system. A conventional TR prefilter degrades bit error rate (BER) performance significantly because it cannot remove the interference perfectly. As the symbol duration is close, the BER performance is deteriorated. Since the proposed scheme aims to minimize interference, high data rate is realized without the performance degradation and the complexity of receiver is reduced through an additional prefilter design. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed scheme is improved as the number of users is increased or the data rate becomes high.

In this paper, a generalized blind adaptive algorithm is introduced for multi-user detection of direct sequence code division multiple access (OS-COMA) wireless communication systems. The main property of the proposed algorithm is its ability to resolve the multipath fading channel resulting in inter symbol interference (ISI) as well as multiple access interference (MAI). Other remarkable properties are its low complexity and mitigation to the near-far problem as well as its insensitivity to asynchronous transmission. The proposed system is based on the minimization of the output energy and convergence to the minimum mean square error (MMSE) detector. It is blind in the sense that it needs no knowledge of the other users' signatures, only the intended user signature and timing are required. Furthermore, the convergence of the minimum output energy (MOE) detector to the MMSE detector is analytically proven in case of M-ary PSK. Depicted results show that the performance of the generalized system dominates those previously considered. Further improvements are obtained when multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technique is employed.

In this paper, minimum mean-squared-error(MMSE) and blind equalization schemes were employed to improve bit-error-rate(BER) and to reduce inter-symbol interference(ISI) generated during storage and retrieval processes of two-dimensional data in a digital holographic data storage system. We explained methods for designing and applying MMSE and blind equalization to improve BER in a digital holographic data storage system. From experimental evaluations, we compared the BER performances of MMSE and blind equalization and we showed that the BER performances of MMSE and blind equalization were improved significantly compared with those before equalization.

QPSK (Quaternary Phase Shift Keying) will be adopted as the modulation of HRIT (High Rate Information Transmission) which is transmitted to COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) through HPA (High Power Amplifier) in ground segment. Due to the nonlinearity of HPA, IMD (Inter-Modulation Distortion) of multi-carrier signals and PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio) of modulated HRIT must be considered to estimate the output power of HPA. In this paper, we measured the PAPR to various the roll-off factor of RRC (Root Raised Cosine filter) which is filtering the modulated HRIT signal for reducing ISI (Inter-Symbol Interference) and bandwidth. It was found that the minimum PAPR is 2.78dB at 0.5 of roll-off factor for scrambled data. It's 2.78dB of P APR will be in output power selecting in COMS earth station.
