Adaptive Bayesian decision feedback equalizer for dispersive mobile radio channels
The paper investigates adaptive equalization of time dispersive mobile ratio fading channels and develops a robust high performance Bayesian decision feedback equalizer (DFE). The characteristics and implementation aspects of this Bayesian DFE are analyzed, and its performance is compared with those of the conventional symbol or fractional spaced DFE and the maximum likelihood sequence estimator (MLSE). In terms of computational complexity, the adaptive Bayesian DFE is slightly more complex than the conventional DFE but is much simpler than the adaptive MLSE. In terms of error rate in symbol detection, the adaptive Bayesian DFE outperforms the conventional DFE dramatically. Moreover, for severely fading multipath channels, the adaptive MLSE exhibits significant degradation from the theoretical optimal performance and becomes inferior to the adaptive Bayesian DFE
Low-complexity iterative frequency domain decision feedback equalization
Single-carrier transmission with frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE) offers a viable design alternative to the classic orthogonal frequency division multiplexing technique. However, SC-FDE using a linear equalizer may suffer from serious performance deterioration for transmission over severely frequency-selective fading channels. An effective method of solving this problem is to introduce non-linear decision feedback equalization (DFE) to SC-FDE. In this contribution, a low complexity iterative decision feedback equalizer operating in the frequency domain of single-carrier systems is proposed. Based on the minimum mean square error criterion, a simplified parameter estimation method is introduced to calculate the coefficients of the feed-forward and feedback filters, which significantly reduces the implementation complexity of the equalizer. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed simplified design is similar to the traditional iterative block DFE under various multipath fading channels but it imposes a much lower complexity than the latter
Limiting Performance of Conventional and Widely Linear DFT-precoded-OFDM Receivers in Wideband Frequency Selective Channels
This paper describes the limiting behavior of linear and decision feedback
equalizers (DFEs) in single/multiple antenna systems employing
real/complex-valued modulation alphabets. The wideband frequency selective
channel is modeled using a Rayleigh fading channel model with infinite number
of time domain channel taps. Using this model, we show that the considered
equalizers offer a fixed post signal-to-noise-ratio (post-SNR) at the equalizer
output that is close to the matched filter bound (MFB). General expressions for
the post-SNR are obtained for zero-forcing (ZF) based conventional receivers as
well as for the case of receivers employing widely linear (WL) processing.
Simulation is used to study the bit error rate (BER) performance of both MMSE
and ZF based receivers. Results show that the considered receivers
advantageously exploit the rich frequency selective channel to mitigate both
fading and inter-symbol-interference (ISI) while offering a performance
comparable to the MFB
Cooperative Precoding with Limited Feedback for MIMO Interference Channels
Multi-antenna precoding effectively mitigates the interference in wireless
networks. However, the resultant performance gains can be significantly
compromised in practice if the precoder design fails to account for the
inaccuracy in the channel state information (CSI) feedback. This paper
addresses this issue by considering finite-rate CSI feedback from receivers to
their interfering transmitters in the two-user multiple-input-multiple-output
(MIMO) interference channel, called cooperative feedback, and proposing a
systematic method for designing transceivers comprising linear precoders and
equalizers. Specifically, each precoder/equalizer is decomposed into inner and
outer components for nulling the cross-link interference and achieving array
gain, respectively. The inner precoders/equalizers are further optimized to
suppress the residual interference resulting from finite-rate cooperative
feedback. Further- more, the residual interference is regulated by additional
scalar cooperative feedback signals that are designed to control transmission
power using different criteria including fixed interference margin and maximum
sum throughput. Finally, the required number of cooperative precoder feedback
bits is derived for limiting the throughput loss due to precoder quantization.Comment: 23 pages; 5 figures; this work was presented in part at Asilomar 2011

This article is an open access article distributed under the terms and conditions of the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).Coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) has attracted a lot of interest in optical fiber communications due to its simplified digital signal processing (DSP) units, high spectral-efficiency, flexibility, and tolerance to linear impairments. However, CO-OFDM’s high peak-to-average power ratio imposes high vulnerability to fiber-induced non-linearities. DSP-based machine learning has been considered as a promising approach for fiber non-linearity compensation without sacrificing computational complexity. In this paper, we review the existing machine learning approaches for CO-OFDM in a common framework and review the progress in this area with a focus on practical aspects and comparison with benchmark DSP solutions.Peer reviewe
