In this paper, conventional and turbo-channel-equalization algorithms processing two samples of the received signal per channel symbol and operating in the frequency domain are proposed for space-time block-coded systems. In the class of conventional equalization techniques, minimum-mean-square-error (MMSE) linear and decision-feedback equalizers (DFE) are derived and a synthesis technique based on the well-known Levinson-Durbin algorithm is proposed for the latter. Similarly, iterative linear and decision-feedback-equalization algorithms for turbo receivers are devised. Performance results show the efficacy of the proposed equalization techniques and their superiority over other frequency-domain-equalization strategies.
