Residual ISI Obtained by Nonblind Adaptive Equalizers and Fractional Noise

الملخص EN

Recently, a closed-form approximated expression was derived by the same author for the achievable residual intersymbol interference (ISI) case that depends on the step-size parameter, equalizer's tap length, input signal statistics, signal to noise ratio (SNR), and channel power and is valid for fractional Gaussian noise (fGn) input where the Hurst exponent is in the region of 0.5≤H<1.

But this expression was obtained for the blind adaptive case and cannot be applied to the nonblind adaptive version.

Up to now, the achievable residual ISI for the non-blind adaptive case could be obtained only via simulation.

In this paper, we derive a closed-form approximated expression (or an upper limit) for the residual ISI obtained by non-blind adaptive equalizers valid for fractional Gaussian noise (fGn) input where the Hurst exponent is in the region of 0.5≤H<1.

This new obtained expression depends on the step-size parameter, equalizer's tap length, input signal statistics, SNR, channel power, and the Hurst exponent parameter.

Simulation results indicate that there is a high correlation between the calculated results (obtained from the new obtained expression for the residual ISI) and those obtained from simulating the system.
