A New Exact Low-Complexity MMSE Equalizer for Continuous Phase Modulation

Abstract

This letter introduces a new low-complexity frequency-domain equalizer for continuous phase modulations (CPM). The derivation of a fractionally spaced representation for circular block-based CPM leads, without any approximation, to a simple yet efficient frequency-domain equalization. The proposed equalizer is compared to the state-of-the-art approaches. Simulation results show the equivalence in terms of performance with a lower or similar complexity.
