Fast Decoder for Overloaded Uniquely Decodable Synchronous Optical CDMA
In this paper, we propose a fast decoder algorithm for uniquely decodable
(errorless) code sets for overloaded synchronous optical code-division
multiple-access (O-CDMA) systems. The proposed decoder is designed in a such a
way that the users can uniquely recover the information bits with a very simple
decoder, which uses only a few comparisons. Compared to maximum-likelihood (ML)
decoder, which has a high computational complexity for even moderate code
lengths, the proposed decoder has much lower computational complexity.
Simulation results in terms of bit error rate (BER) demonstrate that the
performance of the proposed decoder for a given BER requires only 1-2 dB higher
signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) than the ML decoder.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1806.0395
Sparsity Enhanced Decision Feedback Equalization
For single-carrier systems with frequency domain equalization, decision
feedback equalization (DFE) performs better than linear equalization and has
much lower computational complexity than sequence maximum likelihood detection.
The main challenge in DFE is the feedback symbol selection rule. In this paper,
we give a theoretical framework for a simple, sparsity based thresholding
algorithm. We feed back multiple symbols in each iteration, so the algorithm
converges fast and has a low computational cost. We show how the initial
solution can be obtained via convex relaxation instead of linear equalization,
and illustrate the impact that the choice of the initial solution has on the
bit error rate performance of our algorithm. The algorithm is applicable in
several existing wireless communication systems (SC-FDMA, MC-CDMA, MIMO-OFDM).
Numerical results illustrate significant performance improvement in terms of
bit error rate compared to the MMSE solution
