Resource Overview

An equalizer design using Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm with training sequences to mitigate inter-symbol interference in multipath wireless channels, featuring adaptive parameter adjustment through iterative updates.

Detailed Documentation

In wireless communication systems, particularly under multipath channel conditions, we have developed an equalizer employing the adaptive Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm to effectively eliminate inter-symbol interference. The implementation incorporates training sequences and iteratively adjusts equalizer parameters through gradient descent optimization, where tap weights are updated using the formula: w(n+1) = w(n) + μ·e(n)·x(n). This approach enables continuous adaptation to channel variations, with key functions including correlation-based channel estimation and step-size-controlled convergence. The system enhances communication performance by dynamically compensating for channel distortions, making it robust against complex wireless environment challenges.
