Abstract:

A closed approximated formed expression for the achievable residual inter-symbol interference(ISI) is proposed for the adaptive equalizers that adopt the multimodulus algorithm. The expression depends on the step-size parameter, equalizer's tap length, input signal statistics, signal noise ratio and channel power. Simulation proves that the expression shows the exact relationship between residual inter-symbol interference and involved parameters. Since the channel power and signal noise ratio of the expression are measurable or can be calculated, this new approximated expression can be a useful tool for choosing the step-size and tap length for designing an equalizer, and for making direct performance comparison between blind equalizers based on distinct algorithms.
