Abstract

In this letter, a new multimodulus algorithm for blind equalization of complex communication channels is derived by solving a constrained optimization problem with relaxation. The intersymbol interference (ISI) optimization and phase-recovery capabilities of the proposed algorithm are analyzed. It is shown from computer simulations that superior performance for the derived algorithm over Lin's algorithm is obtained.
