The proposed MMSE equalizer can get rid of the IBI problem without requiring a guard period which is not less than the channel order. By shortening the guard period, the bandwidth efficiency can be improved effectively especially for the channel with large dispersion. In addition, we further improve the BER performance of the FIR-MMSEE by propose a group successive interference cancellation MMSE equalizer (GSIC-MMSEE). In GSIC-MMSEE, a group of equalized outputs of the FIR-MMSEE is used to successively cancels their own effect in the received signals. This improves the error performance of the subsequent equalization. Moreover, because the interference cancellation is performed in group-by-group basis, the computation complexity can be controlled by adjusting the number of groups used. The performance of the FIR-MMSEE and GSIC-MMSEE was compared in the simulations.","PeriodicalId":119938,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE 7th CAS Symposium on Emerging Technologies: Circuits and Systems for 4G Mobile Wireless Communications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116783412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SlMD machines have been a preferred solution in such applications because of their inherent spatial parallelism. In such machines, a control unit (CU) broadcasts simple machine instructions simultaneously to a number of processing elements (PEs) executing the same instruction on different data The performance of such architectures can be vastly enhanced if the PEs can execute at the level of signal processing function rather than low level machine instruction. This can be made possible if the PEs are so designed that they can receive and execute functional level instruction from the CU instead of simple machine level instruction. FPGAs have emerged as high performance flexible hardware for many signal processing applications but they are not optimised for any particular application. Hence, they can not offer highest possible performance at lowest silicon cost for a given signal processing algorithm.

A digital delay and adder loop performs spatial accumulation over multiple adjacent ADC outputs. This amounts to computing a two-dimensional Haar wavelet transform, with no overhead in time and negligent overhead in area compared to a baseline digital imager architecture.

Two design procedures of low-pass filters for communication system are discussed. A CMOS transconductance-capacitor (G/sub m/-C) filter with enhanced linearity is presented as the first one. The proposed design is based on a transconductance amplifier with enhanced linearity. For the elimination of the amplifier harmonic level the compensation principle is used. The device was realized as a balanced fifth-order 1 MHz low-pass Bessel filter in 0.35 /spl mu/m CMOS process. The filter operates with a low supply voltage of +2.5 Volt. Its power consumption is 8.25 mW, the input referred RMS noise is 120 /spl mu/V (0.01 + 2 MHz), and HD3 (1 V/sub P-to-P/ @ 1 MHz) is -54 dB. Alternatively a new approach to the design of high-frequency filters with low power consumption is presented. The idea is to use current mode and voltage mode active elements with enhanced frequency range. These elements are second generation current conveyors and voltage buffers, those are used to implement integrators. The filter is realized as a switched-capacitor circuit based on an integrator chain with multi feedback loops. As an example a CMOS switched-capacitor filter with 1 MHz cut-off frequency is presented. The device was realized as an unbalanced fifth-order low-pass Chebyshev filter in 03 /spl mu/m CMOS process. The filter operates with supply voltage varying from +2.5 V to +3 V. Depending on the supply voltage its power consumption is from 3 mW to 10 mW, the input referred RMS noise is 1.9 mV (0.02 + 2 MHz @ +3 V), and HD3 (2 V/sub P-to-P/ @ 900 kHz @ +3 V) is -54 dB.","PeriodicalId":119938,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE 7th CAS Symposium on Emerging Technologies: Circuits and Systems for 4G Mobile Wireless Communications","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124081269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, these transceivers should adapt to the environment (presence of received blockers or not, status of battery power levels, etc.) to minimize power consumption and optimize performance according to the needs of the customer and the desired quality of service. In addition, flexibility is required to cut the development time and cost to implement a new future standard into the 4G system. All this calls for a digitally controlled front-end architecture (\"software-defined radio\") with reconfigurable RF and analog baseband blocks controlled through digital programmable software. This poses serious challenges to the design of such reconfigurable yet power-efficient RF/analog blocks. For the analog-to-digital converters in the receiver, this comes down to designing a power- and area-efficient reconfigurable converter with variable bandwidth and dynamic range. The general requirements for such converters in 4G systems is described. This is then illustrated with the design of a reconfigurable continuous-time /spl Delta//spl Sigma/A/D converter with a pipelined multi-bit quantizer and 1-bit feedback. The chip has been realized in a 0.18 /spl mu/m CMOS technology. It has 3 different modes (20 MHz BW/58 dB SNDR, 4 MHz BW/60 dB SNDR, 0.2 MHz BW/70 dB SNDR).
