Channel equalization to achieve high bit rates in discrete multitone systems
textMulticarrier modulation (MCM) techniques such as orthogonal frequency division
multiplexing (OFDM) and discrete multi-tone (DMT) modulation are attractive
for high-speed data communications due to the ease with which MCM can combat
channel dispersion. With all the benefits MCM could give, DMT modulation has an
extra ability to perform dynamic bit loading, which has the potential to exploit fully
the available bandwidth in a slowly time-varying channel. In broadband wireline
communications, DMT modulation is standardized for asymmetric digital subscribe
line (ADSL) and very-high-bit-rate digital subscriber line (VDSL) modems. ADSL
and VDSL standards are used by telephone companies to provide high speed data
service to residences and offices.
In an ADSL receiver, an equalizer is required to compensate for the channel’s
dispersion in the time domain and the channel’s distortion in the frequency domain
of the transmitted waveform. This dissertation proposes design methods for linear
equalizers to increase the bit rate of the connection. The methods are amenable
to implementation on programmable fixed-point digital signal processors, which are
employed in ADSL/VDSL transceivers.
A conventional ADSL equalizer consists of a time-domain equalizer, a fast
Fourier transform, and a frequency domain equalizer. The time domain equalizer
(TEQ) is a finite impulse response filter that when coupled with a discretized channel
produces an equivalent channel whose impulse response is shorter than that of
the discretized channel. This channel shortening is required by the ADSL standards.
In this dissertation, I first propose a linear phase TEQ design that exploits symmetry
in existing eigen-filter approaches such as minimum mean square error(MMSE),
maximum shortening signal to noise ratio (MSSNR) and minimum intersymbol interference
(Min-ISI) equalizers. TEQs with symmetric coefficients can reach the
same performance as non-symmetric ones with much lower training complexity.
Second, I improve Min-ISI design. I reformulate the cost function to make
long TEQs design feasible. I remove the dependency of transmission delay in order
to reduce the complexity associated with delay optimization. The quantized
weighting is introduced to further lower the complexity. I also propose an iterative
optimization procedure of Min-ISI that completely avoids Cholesky decomposition
hence is better suited for a fixed-point implementation.
Finally I propose a dual-path TEQ structure, which designs a standard singleFIR
TEQ to achieve good bit rate over the entire transmission bandwidth, and
designs another FIR TEQ to improve the bit rate over a subset of subcarriers. Dualpath
TEQ can be viewed as a special case of a complex valued filter bank structure
that delivers the best bit rate of existing DMT equalizers. However, dual-path
TEQ provides a very good tradeoff between achievable bit rate vs. implementation
complexity on a programmable digital signal processor.Electrical and Computer Engineerin
Discrete Wavelet Transforms
The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) algorithms have a firm position in processing of signals in several areas of research and industry. As DWT provides both octave-scale frequency and spatial timing of the analyzed signal, it is constantly used to solve and treat more and more advanced problems. The present book: Discrete Wavelet Transforms: Algorithms and Applications reviews the recent progress in discrete wavelet transform algorithms and applications. The book covers a wide range of methods (e.g. lifting, shift invariance, multi-scale analysis) for constructing DWTs. The book chapters are organized into four major parts. Part I describes the progress in hardware implementations of the DWT algorithms. Applications include multitone modulation for ADSL and equalization techniques, a scalable architecture for FPGA-implementation, lifting based algorithm for VLSI implementation, comparison between DWT and FFT based OFDM and modified SPIHT codec. Part II addresses image processing algorithms such as multiresolution approach for edge detection, low bit rate image compression, low complexity implementation of CQF wavelets and compression of multi-component images. Part III focuses watermaking DWT algorithms. Finally, Part IV describes shift invariant DWTs, DC lossless property, DWT based analysis and estimation of colored noise and an application of the wavelet Galerkin method. The chapters of the present book consist of both tutorial and highly advanced material. Therefore, the book is intended to be a reference text for graduate students and researchers to obtain state-of-the-art knowledge on specific applications
Capacity of a Massive MIMO-OFDM system using Millimetric waves
In modern day society, wirelesses communications are fundamental to the communications worldwide. But with the saturation of the usable spectrum for communications, the need for capacity is one of the most important challenges faced nowadays.
With the development of technology, there is a much great need for quality of the service and bigger data streams. Increasing the capacity of a telecommuni-cation system will allow to cope with that need.
The solution for the need for capacity, can be solved with the use of massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) techniques, since MIMO system ap-proach have already shown to increase the capacity of a wireless system.
The implications of this approach will make systems more complex and more energy consuming, in order to sustain the massive MIMO system. But such implementation combined with millimeter waves will allow the increase of the capacity of a system

WIMAX 802.16 PHYSICAL LAYER IMPLEMENTATION AND WIMAX COVERAGE AND PLANNING.
Over the last decade, the impact of wireless communication on the way we live and carry out business has been surpassed only by impact of the internet. But wireless communications is still in its infancy and the next stage of its development will be supplementing or replacing network infrastructure that was traditionally wired. The advent and adoption of the computer and the myriad software packages available for it offered the ability to generate a new wave of communication combining art, pictures, music and words into a targeted multimedia presentation. These presentations are large so that is requires higher bandwidth transmission facilities. Coupling this with the need for mobility, the solution would be wireless data delivery putting in consideration the bandwidth request. WiMAX technology is based on the IEEE 802.16 standard, it was only recently when the first IEEE 802.16 based equipment broadband began to enter the market. The additional spectrum, bandwidth and throughout capabilities of 802.16 will remarkably improve wireless data delivery and should allows even more wireless data service areas to be deployed economically. In this Final Year Project, a study about the IEEE 802.16 standard and mainly concentrate on the 802.16 PHY Layer behaviors was performed. A Simulink based model for the 802.16 PHY Layer was built for simulation and performance evaluation of WiMAX. MATLA

High Speed Optical Links Using CAP Modulation and Novel Equalisation Techniques
High speed optical links suffer from inter-symbol-interference (ISI) due to their limited bandwidth. Equalisation is typically used to mitigate ISI and therefore improve the link capacity. This dissertation explores novel equalisation techniques for carrierless amplitude and phase (CAP) modulation based optical communication systems including OM4 based and plastic optical fibre (POF) based links.
An 850 nm VCSEL based OM4 link using CAP-16 scheme is studied. For the first time, the CAP equaliser, is proposed to mitigate both crosstalk channel interference (CCI) and ISI in the link at the receiver side. Performance comparisons are studied between the CAP-16 scheme using CAP equaliser and a conventional equaliser, pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-4) scheme, and discrete multitone (DMT) scheme. CAP based data transmission of 112 Gb/s is achieved over 150 m OM4 fibre with this novel equaliser, while the conventional equaliser can only support over 1 m OM4 fibre and fails to recover the signals at the same data rate. In addition, this novel equaliser provides a 1.2 dB and 1.7 dB improvement in receiver sensitivity over PAM-4 and DMT schemes, respectively, at 112 Gb/s over 100 m OM4 fibre. A novel pre-CAP-equaliser solving CCI at the transmitter side is also proposed. Data transmission of 56 Gb/s over 100 m OM4 fibre is reported experimentally with an improvement of 0.7 dB in receiver sensitivity compared to using the CAP equaliser at the receiver side. A simulation study shows a 2 dB improvement in receiver sensitivity at 112 Gb/s over 100 m OM4 fibre. Furthermore, an artificial neural network (ANN) equaliser in conjunction with the CAP equaliser structure is explored in a VCSEL based OM4 fibre link in order to further mitigate the nonlinear impairments. For 112 Gb/s data transmission over 100 m OM4 fibre, a 2.4 dB improvement of receiver sensitivity is achieved compared to the CAP equaliser.
In addition to the electrical equalisers, a monolithically integrated silicon optical equaliser consisting of three taps is used for 50 Gb/s data transmission. After 10 km standard single mode fibre (SSMF), error free eye diagrams at the receiver are demonstrated.
A μLED based POF link based on an APD receiver is also investigated with the CAP equaliser at the receiver side. Data transmission rates of 4 Gb/s over 25 m and 5 Gb/s over 10 m POF links are demonstrated with this equaliser while the conventional equaliser can only support 4 Gb/s over 10 m and fails to recover the signals for 5 Gb/s data transmission

NOVEL OFDM SYSTEM BASED ON DUAL-TREE COMPLEX WAVELET TRANSFORM
The demand for higher and higher capacity in wireless networks, such as cellular,
mobile and local area network etc, is driving the development of new signaling
techniques with improved spectral and power efficiencies. At all stages of a
transceiver, from the bandwidth efficiency of the modulation schemes through highly
nonlinear power amplifier of the transmitters to the channel sharing between different
users, the problems relating to power usage and spectrum are aplenty. In the coming
future, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology promises to
be a ready solution to achieving the high data capacity and better spectral efficiency in
wireless communication systems by virtue of its well-known and desirable
characteristics.
Towards these ends, this dissertation investigates a novel OFDM system based on
dual-tree complex wavelet transform (D
Optimal channel equalization for filterbank transceivers in presence of white noise
Filterbank transceivers are widely employed in data communication networks to cope with inter-symbol-interference (ISI) through the use of redundancies. This dissertation studies the design of the optimal channel equalizer for both time-invariant and time-varying channels, and wide-sense stationary (WSS) and possible non-stationary white noise processes. Channel equalization is investigated via the filterbank transceivers approach. All perfect reconstruction (PR) or zero-forcing (ZF) receiver filterbanks are parameterized in an affine form, which eliminate completely the ISI. The optimal channel equalizer is designed through minimization of the mean-squared-error (MSE) between the detected signals and the transmitted signals. Our main results show that the optimal channel equalizer has the form of state estimators, and is a modified Kalman filter. The results in this dissertation are applicable to discrete wavelet multitone (DWMT) systems, multirate transmultiplexers, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), and direct-sequence/spread-spectrum (DS/SS) based code division multiple access (CDMA) networks. Design algorithms for the optimal channel equalizers are developed for different channel models, and white noise processes, and simulation examples are worked out to illustrate the proposed design algorithms
