EDGE
N.H. Chow, T.G. Jeans and R. Tafazolli
EDGE uses the BPSK modulation scheme. It is difficult to employ
optimum equalisation due to the high computation complexity
required. Consequently, a sub-optimum technique offering an
approximation to maximum likelihood sequence estimation
performance is required. A simple, reduced complexity fractional
spaced equaliser structure involving the delayed decision feedback
sequence estimation is therefore presented. The fractional spaced
approach does not require additional pre-processing creating a
minimum phase overall channel impulse. It is suitable for
unknown channels and has near optimum performance.
System model: All signals are represented by their complex baseband equivalents. At the transmitter, random binary data are
mapped onto 8PSK symbols as specified in [7]. The kth received
symbol is sampled at rate 2/T and the output of finite-length

For HT, the
result is comparable to that in [I]. In EQ, severe dispersion occurs
because the rays are evenly spaced with equal energy. Since
DDFSE uses p + 1 symbol taps of the OCIR in the definition of
the trellis state, this leads to the worst equaliser performance,
although this a somewhat unrealistic scenario.
