A Method of Self-Recovering Equalization for Multilevel Amplitude-Modulation Systems
A self-recovering equalization algorithm, which is employed in multilevel amplitude-modulated data transmission, is presented. Such a self-recovering equalizer has been required when time-division multiplexed (TDM) voice or picturephone PCM signals must be transmitted over the existing frequency-division multiplexed (FDM) transmission channel. The present self-recovering equalizer is quite simple, as is a conventional binary equalizer. The convergence processes of the present self-recovering equalizer are shown by computer simulation. Some theoretical considerations on this convergence process are also added.
