Post04 Aug 2008 9:31   an equalization problem.

Hi friends
I'm trying to simulate some equalization related paper, but i am totally confused with it's notation.
specifically, here is a small part of paper. as you see there is a equation for approximating yi(k) (the ith channel output) from itself to form some cost function d(k); d(k)=yi(k)-y`i(k))

[img][/img]

I dont understand what kind of approximation it is (we already have yi(k) then why do we have to approximate it again, and what would happen in convergence condition so that d(k) becomes zero?)

in practice, the matrix inversion operation becomes divergent since Y'*Y is singular. so...

any ideas, hints, suggestions or truly welcomed.
Thanks in advance


PS : we may see inv(Yi'*Yi)Yi' as pseudoinverse of Yi but what does it suggest?!! when we multiply Yi from the left, we'll get the same yi(k) !!!! any ideas?

Does this make sense:

you have outputs y(k-1) to y(k-L) (past samples). Now you want to predict whats the next sample ie; y(k) going to be, [called y'(k) ]. For that you use a(k). Later after you get the real y(k), you use the difference to improve your prediction for the next time, somehow.

key point is estimate at the _moment_k_

How?

yeah it make sense, but what about the convergence condition. what would happen so that d(k) become zero?!!

Your questions are;
1. we already have yi(k) then why do we have to approximate it again?
Answer: Yes we have "yi(k)" but we dont have "Yi". The aim is to approximate "Yi", not yi(k). Does it make sense?
2. what would happen in convergence condition so that d(k) becomes zero?
Answ: It is an iterative loop that approximates Yi, so when Yi converges to the correct value, "d" will be equal to zero and the loop gets terminated, and you are done.

Added after 57 minutes:

Wait a minute,
I have taken a look at the issue again and I am sorry I think I am wrong. "Yi" is also known, because it is made up of yi(k).
bulx is exactly right, thats right, the aim seems to be to find the recent output by looking at previous observations, sorry for that.

I am trying to make an interpretation ...

When d(k) converges, then your estimate of y(k) and detected y(k) , are the same . when you know the transmitted x , it means that , you have computed the H , channel from your estimate. And can use this channel for equalization.
