水声通信中基于信道辨识的盲turbo均衡方法

水声信道多途效应明显,造成接收信号存在严重的码间干扰(ISI,Intersymbol interference)。基于最小均方误差(MMSE,Minimum mean square error)准则的turbo均衡器级联了均衡和信道译码,能够有效去除ISI,并获得优良的性能。由于水声信道的时变性,传统MMSE-turbo均衡需要周期性的训练序列,以实现连续可靠的通信。训练序列虽然提高了通信的可靠性,但降低了信息的有效传输速率。因此,为提高通信效率,本文提出了一种盲turbo均衡方法,该方法通过引入新的盲信道辨识器来同时获得信道估计响应和已去除部分ISI的初步均衡输出信号,并为turbo均衡提供初始的响应参数和比特软信息。与水声通信中应用较多的盲判决反馈均衡器(DFE,Decision feedback equalizer)相比,海上实验结果证明本文提出的盲turbo均衡方法抗信道多途衰落的能力较强,并且与传统MMSE-turbo均衡相比无需训练序列,因此提高了信息的有效传输速率。

遗传优化神经网络的水声信道盲均衡

不需要训练序列的盲均衡技术可以有效地节省水声通信带宽，消除码间干扰，提高水声通信效率和质量。以前馈神经网络（FNN）作为盲均衡器，既适用于最小相位信道，也适用于非最小相位信道，包括非线性信道，但是前馈神经网络在实际的应用中其网络拓扑结构的选取和初始权重的确定缺乏理论依据，且其训练主要依靠BP算法，存在收敛速度慢、容易陷入局部极值及“过学习”的问题。为此，本文提出了一种遗传优化神经网络的水声信道盲均衡算法（GA—BP），对前馈神经网络拓扑结构和网络权重同时优化，有效地克服了传统前馈神经网络盲均衡的缺陷，提高了前馈神经网络盲均衡的泛化性能并加强了跟踪时变信道的能力和对信道突变的适应能力。水池试验结果证明了文中提出的遗传优化神经网络水声信道盲均衡算法的有效性，与直接前馈神经网络盲均衡相比较，均衡性能明显得到了提高。

水声通信加权反馈双向Turb均衡器

为了提升自适应双向Turbo均衡器的收敛速度及降低误比特率,提出了采用加权反馈的双向Turbo均衡算法。首先在单个均衡器反馈输入中采用后验均值与先验均值混合的反馈方案,有效提升一轮迭代中均衡器输出的准确性;其次通过后验均值与先验均值的加权合并作为另一均衡器反馈的非因果项输入,在提升反馈输入准确性的同时提升了数据的利用率;最后在权值迭代中采用优化的比例归一化最小均方算法,提升训练阶段均衡器收敛速度。千岛湖试验中,在同样3.75 kbps通信速率的情况下,该方法误比特率仅为传统双向Turbo均衡器的1/3。仿真和试验数据表明,均衡器要达到同样的误比特率,本方法所需迭代轮数更少,在时变信道中系统稳定性更好,误比特率更低,提升了水声通信效率。

水声通信系统中双向turbo均衡算法研究（英文）

A direct-adaptation based bidirectional turbo equalizer for underwater acoustic communications is proposed.Abandoning the channel estimation process,the direct-adaptation based turbo equalizer embedded with digital phase-locked loop is adopted to track time-varying channel.The fast self-optimized algorithm is used to adjust the step size,thus a good tradeoff between the convergence speed and performance has been made.Furthermore,by minimizing the mean squared error,an optimal weighting factor is derived to exploit bidirectional diversity gain.The forward turbo equalizer is combined with the backward turbo equalizer to eliminate error propagation effect.Simulated and experimental results demonstrate that the bidirectional turbo equalizer outperforms the single directional one.It can be seen from the experimental results that,compared with the channel estimation based algorithm,the direct-adaptation based algorithm is less sensitive to the time-varying channel and has a lower bit error rate.     

Performance analysis of adaptive equalization for coherent acoustic communications in the time-varying ocean environment

Equations are derived for analyzing the performance of channel estimate based equalizers. The performance is characterized in terms of the mean squared soft decision error (sigma2(s)) of each equalizer. This error is decomposed into two components. These are the minimum achievable error (sigma2(0)) and the excess error (sigma2(e)). The former is the soft decision error that would be realized by the equalizer if the filter coefficient calculation were based upon perfect knowledge of the channel impulse response and statistics of the interfering noise field. The latter is the additional soft decision error that is realized due to errors in the estimates of these channel parameters. These expressions accurately predict the equalizer errors observed in the processing of experimental data by a channel estimate based decision feedback equalizer (DFE) and a passive time-reversal equalizer. Further expressions are presented that allow equalizer performance to be predicted given the scattering function of the acoustic channel. The analysis using these expressions yields insights into the features of surface scattering that most significantly impact equalizer performance in shallow water environments and motivates the implementation of a DFE that is robust with respect to channel estimation errors.     

Time reversal acoustic communication receivers: DSP implementation and fast channel estimation

A communication system is implemented on digital signal processors (DSPs) for the underwater acoustic environment. The implemented receiver uses time reversal multi-channel combining followed by a single-channel decision feedback equalizer. Periodic channel estimation is employed to track the channel fluctuations. These techniques are used to mitigate time-varying inter-symbol interference, which is the main challenge in the underwater acoustic channel at operating frequencies greater than 10 kHz. Various optimization tasks are performed to reduce the receiver computational complexity. A fast implementation of the matching pursuit algorithm is tested on the DSP platform. Its performance, in terms of accuracy and run-time, is compared with that of the basic matching pursuit algorithm. Experimental results of the transmission and demodulation of binary phase-shift keying signals at three different symbol rates were obtained in the local Delaware Bay. The low bit error rates demonstrate the effectiveness of our implementation.     

Pilot design and doubly-selective channel estimation for faster-than-Nyquist signaling

Being capable of enhancing the spectral efficiency (SE), faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signaling is a promising approach for wireless communication systems. This paper investigates the doubly-selective (i.e., time- and frequency-selective) channel estimation and data detection of FTN signaling. We consider the intersymbol interference (ISI) resulting from both the FTN signaling and the frequency-selective channel and adopt an efficient frame structure with reduced overhead. We propose a novel channel estimation technique of FTN signaling based on the least sum of squared errors (LSSE) approach to estimate the complex channel coefficients at the pilot locations within the frame. In particular, we find the optimal pilot sequence that minimizes the mean square error (MSE) of the channel estimation. To address the time-selective nature of the channel, we use a low-complexity linear interpolation to track the complex channel coefficients at the data symbols locations within the frame. To detect the data symbols of FTN signaling, we adopt a turbo equalization technique based on a linear soft-input soft-output (SISO) minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalizer. Simulation results show that the MSE of the proposed FTN signaling channel estimation employing the designed optimal pilot sequence is lower than its counterpart designed for conventional Nyquist transmission. The bit error rate (BER) of the FTN signaling employing the proposed optimal pilot sequence shows improvement compared to the FTN signaling employing the conventional Nyquist pilot sequence. Additionally, for the same SE, the proposed FTN signaling channel estimation employing the designed optimal pilot sequence shows better performance when compared to competing techniques from the literature.     

Deep-BiGRU based channel estimation scheme for MIMO–FBMC systems

Deep Learning (DL)–based wireless communication systems have the potential to improve the conventional functions and current architecture of communication systems. In this paper, we propose a novel DL-based channel estimation scheme for multiple-input multiple-output filter bank multicarrier with offset quadrature amplitude modulation (MIMO-FBMC/OQAM) systems called deep bidirectional gated-recurrent unit (BiGRU) scheme. This scheme can easily be applied to a single-input single-output (SISO) system. The proposed scheme is divided into two stages: offline and online. The network is first trained in the offline stage. The prediction of channel information and estimation of the channel matrix using the trained network is then performed in the online stage. The simulation results in terms of the normalized mean square error (NMSE) and bit error rate (BER) demonstrate that, under different time-varying channel models, the proposed DL scheme significantly improves the channel estimation performance of FBMC for single and multiple antennas compared to conventional interference approximation method (IAM) channel estimation methods.     

Bidirectional equalization for underwater acoustic communication

The bidirectional decision feedback equalizer (BiDFE) that combines the outputs of a conventional decision feedback equalizer (DFE) and backward DFE can improve the performance of the conventional DFE by up to 1-2 dB based on simulations. In this letter, the BiDFE concept is extended to multichannel time reversal communications involving a DFE as a post-processor. Experimental data collected in shallow water (10-20 kHz) show that the performance can be enhanced by 0.4-1.8 dB in terms of output signal-to-noise ratio. In particular, a larger improvement (e.g., 1.8 dB) is achieved for time-varying channels where the channel diversity in opposite directions is more profound.

Joint fast time-varying channel estimation with noise elimination and ICI cancellation for LTE-V2X systems

Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication is essential for intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and critical technology to ensure traffic safety. Aiming at the problems of noise interference, time-varying, and inter-carrier interference (ICI) in the LTE-V2X channel, a joint fast time-varying channel estimation with noise elimination and ICI cancellation is proposed in this paper. Firstly, using the autocorrelation characteristics of the Zadoff Chu (ZC) pilot sequence, a modified discrete Fourier transform (M-DFT) channel estimation algorithm is proposed to eliminate the noise in cyclic prefix (CP). Secondly, a joint iterative direct decision (IDD) and time-varying channel fitting (CF), called IDD-CF channel estimation algorithm, is proposed to track the rapid changes of channels on different symbols and eliminate ICI. The system simulation results show that the proposed joint fast time-varying channel estimation algorithm can effectively eliminate the noise and ICI, improve the performance of channel estimation, and have better robustness under different Doppler frequency shifts than the representative channel estimation algorithm.
