MLSE and soft-output equalization for trellis-coded continuousphase modulation

This paper presents two equalizer structures for trellis-coded continuous phase modulation (TC-CPM) on multipath fading intersymbol interference (ISI) channels. An equivalent discrete-time (DT) model is developed by combining the tapped-delay-line (TDL) model of the frequency-selective channel and by oversampling at the receiver. The (noninterleaved) fractionally spaced maximum-likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE) equalizer performs continuous phase modulation (CPM) demodulation, trellis-coded modulation (TCM) decoding, and channel equalization by exploiting the finite state nature of the ISI-corrupted TC-CPM signal. Both simulation and analytical results show diversity-like improvement when performing joint MLSE decoding and equalization. For the interleaved soft-output equalizer, the soft symbol metric is delivered to the TCM decoder by using a forward and backward recursion algorithm. Three variants of the soft-output equalizer are examined. We conclude that the backward recursion is essential to partial response CPM schemes, and with moderate complexity, the soft-output equalizer can have a substantial advantage over a noninterleaved MLSE equalizer

Turbo Equalization with Prediction and Iterative Estimation of Time-Varying Frequency-Selective Channels

Turbo equalization that cooperates with channel prediction and iterative channel estimation is investigated for mobile wireless communications. Frames of information bits are encoded, interleaved, and mapped to symbols for transmission over time-varying frequency-selective fading channels. At the receiver, the Turbo equalizer consists of a maximum a posteriori probability equalizer/demapper and a soft-input soft-output maximum a posteriori probability decoder. With initial channel estimates and sparse pilot insertion across a number of frames, the receiver predicts the channel of the current frame. The effect of error propagation of channel prediction is mitigated by the de-interleaver that is embedded in the Turbo equalizer. The predicted and interpolated channel is refined through a channel estimator that uses the soft estimates of data symbols at each Turbo iteration. Due to the bandlimiting feature of channel variation, the channel estimation error can be smoothed by low-pass filters that follow the channel estimator. Simulation results show that incorporating Turbo equalization with channel prediction and iterative channel estimation can combat time- and frequency-selective fading and improve reception performance.     

Joint iterative channel estimation and decoding in flat correlatedRayleigh fading

This paper addresses the design and performance evaluation with respect to capacity of M-PSK turbo-coded systems operating in frequency-flat time-selective Rayleigh fading. The receiver jointly performs channel estimation and turbo decoding, allowing the two processes to benefit from each other. To this end, we introduce a suitable Markov model with a finite number of states, designed to approximate both the values and the statistical properties of the correlated flat fading channel phase, which poses a more severe challenge to PSK transmission than amplitude hiding. Then, the forward-backward algorithm determines both the maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) value for each symbol in the data sequence and the MAP channel phase in each iteration. Simulations show good performance in standard correlated Rayleigh fading channels. A sequence of progressively tighter upper bounds to the capacity of a simplified Markov-phase channel is derived, and performance of a turbo code with joint iterative channel estimation and decoding is demonstrated to approach these capacity bounds     

An iterative receiver for turbo-coded pilot-assisted modulation infading channels

We introduce an iterative joint channel and data estimation receiver that exploits both the power of pilot-symbol assisted modulation (PSAM) and turbo coding for fading channels. The key innovation is a low-complexity soft channel estimator which divides a processing block into overlapped cells and performs maximum a posteriori (MAP) sequence estimation and MMSE filtering based on the received signal and extrinsic information delivered by the soft channel decoder. Simulation results show that for turbo-coded PSAM systems under time-variant fading the proposed receiver offers significant performance gains over a non-iterative receiver and two other cancellation schemes
