Abstract

The author studies minimum mean square error (MMSE) linear and decision feedback (DF) equalisers for multiple input/multiple output (MIMO) communication systems with intersymbol interference (ISI) and wide-sense stationary (WSS) inputs. To derive these equalizers, one works in the D-transform domain and uses prediction theory results. Partial-response MMSE equalizers are also found. As an application, the author considers a pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) communication system with ISI and cyclostationary inputs. The MMSE linear and DF equalizers are determined by studying an equivalent MIMO system. The resulting filters are expressed in compact matrix notation and are time-invariant, whereas the corresponding single input/single output filters are periodically time-invariant. The author also considers MMSE equalizers for a wide-sense stationary process by introducing a `random phase'. To aid in the performance evaluation of various equalizers, the author derives their mean square errors
