Equalizers

Equalizers are used in digital communication systems to reduce intersymbol interference and allow recovery of transmitted symbols. There are several types of equalizers, including linear, decision feedback, blind, and adaptive equalizers. Equalizers must be adaptive to account for unknown and time-varying channels. An equalizer is placed after sampling to eliminate intersymbol interference. A zero-forcing equalizer inverts the channel frequency response to restore the signal, bringing intersymbol interference to zero in an ideal noise-free case.

EQUALIZERS

Made by shivani

INTRODUCTION

In digital communication, its purpose is to reduce intersymbol interference to allow recovery of the transmit symbols

The type of equalizer commonly used are : i. Linear Equalizer ii. Decision Feedback Equalizer iii. Blind Equalizer iv. Adaptive Equalizer v. Zero-forcing equalizer etc.

Equalizers must be adaptive since the channel is generally unknown and time varying

Through equalizer the received signal would be seen like that it passed delta response

We choose a filter which take samples at intervals T , and put a digital lter , called equalizer, at the output to eliminate ISI as shown below in Figure. This approach to remove ISI is usually known as equalization.

EQUIVALENT DISCRETETIME MODEL

Fig: Equivalent communication system with coloured Gaussian noise

1) Instead of AWGN being added before the receiving lter HR(f ), we add equivalent coloured Gaussian noise added after HR(f ). 2) Input a bit, every T seconds and denote HT (f ), 5 HC (f ) and HR(f ) transfer function by H(z).

Here ISI is present and is not white in general. 3) The equalizer consists of two parts -> a noise-whitening digital lter HW (z) ->an equalizing circuit that equalizes the noisewhitened output By using HW (z) the noise samples become uncorrelated and hence the output of HW (z), the noise sequence is white.

4) Let G(z) = H(z)HW (z).

5) Then the equalizing circuit attempts to remove ISI from the output of G(z).

ZERO-FORCING EQUALIZER
Inverse of the channel frequency response to the received signal, to restore the signal after the channel. Forcing corresponds to bringing down the intersymbol interference (ISI) to zero in a noise free case. This will be useful when ISI is significant compared to noise. Simple implementation The longer equalizer, the more the ideal condition for distortionless transmission
