1 Introduction

We consider a nonblind deconvolution problem in which weobserve the output of an unknown possibly nonminimumphase linear system (single-input-single-output (SISO) FIRsystem) from which we want to recover its input (source)using an adjustable linear filter (equalizer) and trainingsymbols During transmission a source signal undergoes aconvolutive distortion between its symbols and the channelimpulse response This distortion is referred to as ISI [12] It is well known that ISI is a limiting factor in manycommunication environments where it causes an irreducibledegradation of the bit error rate thus imposing an upper limiton the data symbol rate In order to overcome the ISI probleman equalizer is implemented in those systems [1ndash12]

In this paper we consider the nonblind adaptive equalizerwhere training sequences are needed to generate the errorthat is fed into the adaptive mechanism which updates theequalizerrsquos taps [9ndash12]Thenonblind adaptive approach yieldsin most cases a better equalization performance consideringconvergence speed and equalization quality compared withthe blind adaptive version [6] In addition the blind adaptive

version has a higher computational cost compared with itsnonblind approach [6]

The equalization performance from the residual ISI pointof view depends on the channel characteristics on the addednoise on the step-size parameter used in the adaptationprocess on the equalizerrsquos tap length and on the input signalstatistics [13 14] Fast convergence speed and reaching aresidual ISI where the eye diagram is considered to be open(for the communication case) are the main requirementsfrom a blind or nonblind equalizer Fast convergence speedmay be obtained by increasing the step-size parameter Butincreasing the step-size parameter may lead to a higher resid-ual ISI which might not meet the systemrsquos requirements anymore Recently [2] a closed-form approximated expressionwas derived for the achievable residual ISI case that dependson the step-size parameter equalizerrsquos tap length input signalstatistics SNR Hurst exponent and channel power But thisexpression is valid only for the blind adaptive case and cannotbe used for the nonblind version

Up to now the achievable residual ISI for the nonblindadaptive case (for the noisy or noiseless case) could beobtained only via simulation Thus the system designer had

to spend a lot of time in simulating the whole system inorder to find the best values for the step-size parameter andequalizerrsquos tap length that meet the systemrsquos requirementsfrom the residual ISI point of view In this paper we derivea closed-form approximated expression (or an upper limit)for the residual ISI obtained by nonblind adaptive equalizersthat depends on the step-size parameter equalizerrsquos taplength input signal statistics SNR channel power and Hurstexponent parameter This expression is valid for fGn inputwhere the Hurst exponent is in the region of 05 le 119867 lt 1Please note119867 = 1 is the limit case which does not havemuchpractical sense [15ndash17] It should be pointed out that a whiteGaussian process is a special case (119867 = 05) of the fractionalGaussian noise (fGn) model [18] FGn with 119867 isin (05 1)

corresponds to the case of long-range dependency (LRD)[18] Thus the new obtained expression for the achievableresidual ISI is not only valid for the special case of whiteGaussian process but also covers those cases that correspondto the case of LRD

The paper is organized as follows After having describedthe system under consideration in Section 2 the closed-formapproximated expression (or upper limit) for the residual ISIis introduced in Section 3 In Section 4 simulation results arepresented and the conclusion is given in Section 5

2 System Description

The transmitted sequence 119909[119899] is sent through the chan-nel ℎ[119899] and is corrupted with noise 119908[119899] Therefore theequalizerrsquos input sequence 119910[119899]may be written as

119910 [119899] = 119909 [119899] lowast ℎ [119899] + 119908 [119899] (1)

where ldquolowastrdquo denotes the convolution operation The equalizedoutput signal can be written as

119911 [119899] = 119909 [119899] + 119901 [119899] + 119908 [119899] (2)

where 119901[119899] is the convolutional noise namely the residualintersymbol interference (ISI) arising from the differencebetween the ideal equalizerrsquos coefficients and those chosen inthe system and 119908[119899] = 119908[119899] lowast 119888[119899] The ISI is often used asa measure of performance in equalizersrsquo applications definedby

Next we turn to the adaptation mechanism of theequalizer which is based on training symbols [9ndash12 19]

119888eq [119899 + 1] = 119888eq [119899] minus 120583 (119911 [119899] minus 119909 [119899]) 119910lowast[119899] (5)

Comments It should be pointed out that assumptions (1)ndash(5)from above are precisely the same assumptions made in [214]

Proof Let us first recall the expression for the adaptationmechanism of the equalizer given in (5) Then we substitute(2) into (5) and obtain

119888eq [119899 + 1] = 119888eq [119899] minus 120583 (119901 [119899] + 119908 [119899]) 119910lowast[119899] (8)

Next we recall from [14] the expression for 119864[Δ(1199012119903)]

to spend a lot of time in simulating the whole system inorder to find the best values for the step-size parameter andequalizerrsquos tap length that meet the systemrsquos requirementsfrom the residual ISI point of view In this paper we derivea closed-form approximated expression (or an upper limit)for the residual ISI obtained by nonblind adaptive equalizersthat depends on the step-size parameter equalizerrsquos taplength input signal statistics SNR channel power and Hurstexponent parameter This expression is valid for fGn inputwhere the Hurst exponent is in the region of 05 le 119867 lt 1Please note119867 = 1 is the limit case which does not havemuchpractical sense [15ndash17] It should be pointed out that a whiteGaussian process is a special case (119867 = 05) of the fractionalGaussian noise (fGn) model [18] FGn with 119867 isin (05 1)

corresponds to the case of long-range dependency (LRD)[18] Thus the new obtained expression for the achievableresidual ISI is not only valid for the special case of whiteGaussian process but also covers those cases that correspondto the case of LRD

The paper is organized as follows After having describedthe system under consideration in Section 2 the closed-formapproximated expression (or upper limit) for the residual ISIis introduced in Section 3 In Section 4 simulation results arepresented and the conclusion is given in Section 5

2 System Description

The system under consideration is illustrated in Figure 1where we make the following assumptions

(1) The input sequence 119909[119899] belongs to a two indepen-dent quadrature carriers case constellation input withvariance 1205902

119909 where 119909

is thevariance of 119909

119903[119899]

(2) The unknown channel ℎ[119899] is a possibly nonmini-mum phase linear time-invariant filter in which thetransfer function has no ldquodeep zerosrdquo namely thezeros lie sufficiently far from the unit circle

(3) The equalizer 119888[119899] is a tap-delay line

(4) The noise 119908[119899] consists of 119908[119899] = 119908119903[119899] + 119895119908

119894[119899]

where 119908119903[119899] and 119908

119894[119899] are the real and imagi-

are independent Both 119908119903[119899] and 119908

119894[119899] are frac-

The transmitted sequence 119909[119899] is sent through the chan-nel ℎ[119899] and is corrupted with noise 119908[119899] Therefore theequalizerrsquos input sequence 119910[119899]may be written as

119910 [119899] = 119909 [119899] lowast ℎ [119899] + 119908 [119899] (1)

where ldquolowastrdquo denotes the convolution operation The equalizedoutput signal can be written as

119911 [119899] = 119909 [119899] + 119901 [119899] + 119908 [119899] (2)

where 119901[119899] is the convolutional noise namely the residualintersymbol interference (ISI) arising from the differencebetween the ideal equalizerrsquos coefficients and those chosen inthe system and 119908[119899] = 119908[119899] lowast 119888[119899] The ISI is often used asa measure of performance in equalizersrsquo applications definedby

Next we turn to the adaptation mechanism of theequalizer which is based on training symbols [9ndash12 19]

119888eq [119899 + 1] = 119888eq [119899] minus 120583 (119911 [119899] minus 119909 [119899]) 119910lowast[119899] (5)

Comments It should be pointed out that assumptions (1)ndash(5)from above are precisely the same assumptions made in [214]

Proof Let us first recall the expression for the adaptationmechanism of the equalizer given in (5) Then we substitute(2) into (5) and obtain

where 119901119903is the real part of 119901[119899] andΔ(1199012

According to [13 14] when the equalizer has convergedwe may assume that 119864[Δ(1199012

5 Conclusion

In this paper we proposed a closed-form approximatedexpression (or an upper limit) for the residual ISI obtainedby nonblind adaptive equalizers valid for the fGn input casewhere the Hurst exponent is in the region of 05 le 119867 lt

1 This new obtained expression depends on the step-sizeparameter equalizerrsquos tap length input signal statistics SNRchannel power and theHurst exponent parameter According

to simulation results a high correlation is obtained betweenthe calculated and simulated results for the residual ISI forsome cases while for others the new obtained expression is arelative tight upper limit for the averaged residual ISI results

Comments It should be pointed out that assumptions (1)ndash(5)from above are precisely the same assumptions made in [214]

Proof Let us first recall the expression for the adaptationmechanism of the equalizer given in (5) Then we substitute(2) into (5) and obtain

119888eq [119899 + 1] = 119888eq [119899] minus 120583 (119901 [119899] + 119908 [119899]) 119910lowast[119899] (8)

Next we recall from [14] the expression for 119864[Δ(1199012119903)]

where 119901119903is the real part of 119901[119899] andΔ(1199012

where 119875119903(119911) is the real part of 119875(119911) and is given in our case as

119875 (119911) =119911 [119899]minus 119909 [119899] = 119901 [119899] + 119908 [119899] 997904rArr 119875119903 (119911) = 119901119903 + 119908119903 [119899]

(10)

According to [13 14] when the equalizer has convergedwe may assume that 119864[Δ(1199012

119903)] cong 0 Therefore by setting

2It should be pointed out that this approximation fits theMPSK case where QPSK is a special case of it Howeversatisfying results were obtained in [13] for the 16QAM and64QAM cases in spite of the fact that the above mentionedapproximation was applied Thus it makes sense to use thesame approximation also here for our case The expression119864[sum119898=119873minus1

Next we turn to find a closed-form approximated expressionfor1205902119908119903

by using assumption (4) from the system description sectionassumptions (4) and (6)ndash(8) from this section the Holderinequality [20] and the following approximation [21]

5 Conclusion

In this paper we proposed a closed-form approximatedexpression (or an upper limit) for the residual ISI obtainedby nonblind adaptive equalizers valid for the fGn input casewhere the Hurst exponent is in the region of 05 le 119867 lt

1 This new obtained expression depends on the step-sizeparameter equalizerrsquos tap length input signal statistics SNRchannel power and theHurst exponent parameter According

to simulation results a high correlation is obtained betweenthe calculated and simulated results for the residual ISI forsome cases while for others the new obtained expression is arelative tight upper limit for the averaged residual ISI results

by using assumption (4) from the system description sectionassumptions (4) and (6)ndash(8) from this section the Holderinequality [20] and the following approximation [21]

4 Simulation

In this section we test our new proposed expression for theresidual ISI for the 16QAM case (a modulation using plusmn1 3levels for in-phase and quadrature components) with thealgorithm described in (5) for different SNR step-size andequalizerrsquos tap length values and for two different channeltypesThe following two channels were considered Channel1(initial ISI = 044) the channel parameters were determinedaccording to [22]

Channel2 (initial ISI = 088) the channel parameters weredetermined according to

5 Conclusion

In this paper we proposed a closed-form approximatedexpression (or an upper limit) for the residual ISI obtainedby nonblind adaptive equalizers valid for the fGn input casewhere the Hurst exponent is in the region of 05 le 119867 lt

to simulation results a high correlation is obtained betweenthe calculated and simulated results for the residual ISI forsome cases while for others the new obtained expression is arelative tight upper limit for the averaged residual ISI results

5 Conclusion

In this paper we proposed a closed-form approximatedexpression (or an upper limit) for the residual ISI obtainedby nonblind adaptive equalizers valid for the fGn input casewhere the Hurst exponent is in the region of 05 le 119867 lt

1 This new obtained expression depends on the step-sizeparameter equalizerrsquos tap length input signal statistics SNRchannel power and theHurst exponent parameter According

to simulation results a high correlation is obtained betweenthe calculated and simulated results for the residual ISI forsome cases while for others the new obtained expression is arelative tight upper limit for the averaged residual ISI results
