A Block Adaptive Frequency Domain MIMO DFE for Wideband Channels
The equalization of MIMO frequency selective channels is a challenging task due to the increased filter lengths required and the presence of interstream interference. In wideband systems where high delay spread channels arise and long transmission bursts are employed, adaptive equalization is necessary. In this work, we develop an adaptive MIMO DFE for wideband time varying systems. To reduce computational complexity and accelerate convergence rate, the equalizer is fully implemented in the frequency domain, while an inherent causality problem is efficiently solved through an iterative scheme. As verified by simulations, the proposed method offers a good trade off in terms of complexity and convergence, compared to other related adaptive algorithms.
