A blind adaptive TEQ for multicarrier systems

Abstract

This letter exploits the cyclic prefix to create a blind adaptive globally convergent channel-shortening algorithm, with a complexity like least mean squares. The cost function is related to that of the shortening signal-to-noise solution of Melsa et al. (see IEEE Trans. Commun., vol.44, p.1662-72, Dec. 1996), and simulations are provided to demonstrate the performance of the algorithm.
