Abstract

In wireless communication systems, a channel equalizer is a technology that enables the receiver baseband signal processing section to remove the unwanted time-variant channel characteristics such as multipath components and inter-symbol interference (ISI). This presentation will review the Rayleigh fading channel model and discuss the methodology in which a wireless communication system requires an equalizer. The LMS Algorithm will be introduced, followed by a detailed discussion regarding the LMS algorithm’s capability to remove the unwanted channel characteristics. The LMS Algorithm realization will be examined, followed by an implementation example for a linear receiver with diversity.
