Abstract

It is known that a nonirreducible multiple-input-multiple-output finite-impulse-response channel driven by colored signals that are mutually uncorrelated and of sufficiently diverse power spectra can be identified blindly by exploiting only the second-order statistics of the measured data. In this brief, we propose an approach to dealing with the equalization of a nonirreducible channel, provided that the estimate of the channel matrix is available. Both zero-forcing and minimum-mean-square-error equalizers are developed to perform the channel equalization. The effectiveness of the approach and equalizers is demonstrated by simulation examples.
