New Dual-Mode FSE Suitable for High-Order QAM Signals

Abstract:

In the digital transmission system, constant modulus algorithm (CMA) is a famous blind equalization to overcome the inter-symbol interference without the aid of training sequences. But for the non-constant modulus signals such as higher-order QAM signals, the CMA just achieve moderate steady-state mean square error (MSE). So a new dual-mode fractionally-spaced equalization (FSE) suitable for high-order QAM signals is proposed, which makes full use of the character which is that the high-order QAM signals have the different modulus. This algorithm uses the FSE based on CMA as the basal mode and in the second mode it uses the FSE based on variable modulus algorithm. The simulation results show that compared with CMA the proposed algorithm has faster convergence rate and lower steady-state mean square error.
