About this book

The absence of training signals from many kinds of transmission necessitates the widespread use of blind equalization and system identification. There have been many algorithms developed for these purposes, working with one- or two-dimensional signals and with single-input single-output or multiple-input multiple-output, real or complex systems. It is now time for a unified treatment of this subject, pointing out the common characteristics of these algorithms as well as learning from their different perspectives. "Blind Equalization and System Identification" provides such a unified treatment presenting theory, performance analysis, simulation, implementation and applications.

This is a textbook for graduate courses in discrete-time random processes, statistical signal processing, and blind equalization and system identification. It contains material which will also interest researchers and engineers working in digital communications, source separation, speech processing, and other, similar applications.

About the authors

Doctor Chong-Yung Chi is a Professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering, National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan. From July 1983 to September 1988, he was with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California, where he worked on the design of various spaceborne radar remote sensing systems including radar scatterometers, SAR’s, altimeters, and rain mapping radars. From October 1988 to July 1989, he was a visiting specialist at the Department of Electrical Engineering, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan, RoC. Since August 1989, Professor Chi has been a Professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering and since August 2002, the Chairman of Institute of Communications Engineering at the National Tsing Hua University, Hsinchu, Taiwan. He was a visiting researcher, at the Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International, Kyoto, Japan, in May and June 2001. He has published more than 110 technical papers in radar remote sensing, system identification and estimation theory, deconvolution and channel equalization, digital filter design, spectral estimation, and higher-order statistics-based signal processing. His research interests include signal processing for wireless communications, statistical signal processing and digital signal processing and their applications.

Dr. Chi is a member of the Society of Exploration Geophysicists, the European Association for Signal Processing, and an active member of the Chinese Institute of Electrical Engineering. He has served on numerous symposium and conference boards and is currently an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing and an Editorial Board Member EURASIP Journal on Applied Signal Processing.
