Abstract

In this work, a variable step-size (VSS) blind equalization algorithm is presented for a multimodulus blind equalization scheme. The parameters of the proposed algorithm are selected using a particle swarm optimization strategy. Eventually, the best parameters for the proposed VSS blind equalization algorithm are obtained and better performance is obtained when compared to the trial-and-error method for choosing these parameters. Ultimately, a considerable reduction in computational complexity when compared to the fixed-step algorithm with extra constraints. Simulation results support this new proposed technique.
