Abstract

In this paper, I propose for the noisy, real, and two independent quadrature carrier case, an approximated closed-form expression for the achievable minimum mean square error (MSE) performance obtained by blind equalizers where the error that is fed into the adaptive mechanism which updates the equalizer’s taps can be expressed as a polynomial function of the equalized output of order three like in Godard’s algorithm. The proposed closed-form expression for the achievable MSE is based on the step-size parameter, on the equalizer’s tap length, on the channel power, on the signal to noise ratio (SNR), on the nature of the chosen equalizer, and on the input signal statistics. Since the channel power is measurable or can be calculated if the channel coefficients are given, there is no need anymore to carry out any simulation with various step-size parameters, different values for the signal to noise ratio (SNR) and equalizer’s tap length for a given equalization method, and input signal statistics in order to find the MSE performance in the convergence state.
