Abstract

This paper relates with the VSS-MMA (Variable Step Size-Multiple Modulus Algorithm) adaptive equalization algorithm which is possible to improving the equalization performance by use the nonlinear fuction of error signal in the MMA adaptive equalization algorithm that are used for the minimization of the intersymbol interference due to the distortion which occurs in the time dispersive channel for the transmission of QAM signal in the system.. In the conventional MMA, we obtains the tap coefficient of adaptive equalizer using the fixed step size, but in the VSS-MMA, we obtains the tap coefficient of adaptive equalizer using the variable step size based on a nonlinear function of error signal. By adapting the variable step size, it was confirmed that the improved equalization performance were obtained by computer simulation. For this, the equalizer output signal constellation, residual isi, maximum distortion, MSE and SER were used in the performace index.

본 논문은 QAM 신호를 전송하는 시스템에서 시분산 채널에서 발생되는 진폭과 위상 찌그러짐에 의한 부호간 간섭을 경감시키기 위한 적응 등화 알고리즘인 MMA (Multiple Modulus Algorithm)에서 오차 신호의 비선형 함수를 이용하여 등화 성능을 개선할 수 있는 VSS-MMA (Variable Step Size - MMA) 알고리즘에 관한 것이다. 기존 MMA에서는 고정 스텝 크기를 이용하여 적응 등화기의 탭 계수를 얻지만, 제안 VSS-MMA에서는 오차 신호의 비선형성을 기본으로 가변 스텝 크기를 적용하여 탭 계수를 얻을 수 있다. 가변 스텝 크기을 이용하므로서 기존 MMA보다 개선된 등화 성능을 얻을 수 있음을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였으며, 이를 위한 성능 지수로는 등화기 출력 신호 성상도, 잔류 isi양, 최대 찌그러짐과 MSE, SER을 사용하였다.
