Using Least Mean p-Power Algorithm to Correct Channel Distortion in MC-CDMA Systems, Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2018, nr 3

This work focuses on adaptive Broadband Radio Access Network (BRAN) channel identification and on downlink Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MCCDMA) equalization. We use the normalized BRAN C channel model for 4G mobile communications, distinguishing between indoor and outdoor scenarios. On the one hand, BRAN C channel parameters are identified using the Least Mean p-Power (LMP) algorithm. On the other, we consider these coefficients in the context of adaptive equalization. We provide an overview and a mathematic formulation of MC-CDMA systems. According to these fundamental concepts, the equalizer technique is investigated analytically to compensate for channel distortion in terms of the bit error rate (BER). The numerical simulation results, for various signal-to-noise ratios and different p threshold, show that the presented algorithm is able to simulate the BRAN C channel measured with different accuracy levels. Furthermore, as far as the adaptive equalization problem is concerned, the results obtained using the zero-forcing equalizer demonstrate that the algorithm is adequate for some particular cases of threshold p

A Novel Kernel Algorithm for Finite Impulse Response Channel Identification, Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2023, nr 2

Over the last few years, kernel adaptive filters have gained in importance as the kernel trick started to be used in classic linear adaptive filters in order to address various regression and time-series prediction issues in nonlinear environments.In this paper, we study a recursive method for identifying finite impulse response (FIR) nonlinear systems based on binary-value observation systems. We also apply the kernel trick to the recursive projection (RP) algorithm, yielding a novel recursive algorithm based on a positive definite kernel. For purposes, our approach is compared with the recursive projection (RP) algorithm in the process of identifying the parameters of two channels, with the first of them being a frequency-selective fading channel, called a broadband radio access network (BRAN B) channel, and the other being a a theoretical frequency-selective channel, known as the Macchi channel. Monte Carlo simulation results are presented to show the performance of the proposed algorith
