A suitable measure of performance is represented by the probability of error. We present a new upper bound on the probability of error in PAM systems. The main feature of this bound is that it depends on the variance and fourth-order cumulant of the measurable equalizer output and on the a-priori known statistics of the channel input. It can therefore be useful for an a-posteriori evaluation of the equalization accuracy in a blind equalization context.","PeriodicalId":131323,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Digital Signal Processing Workshop Proceedings","volume":"613 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134453307","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}

Detectors designed with this extended model are compared to classical subspace detectors. An example is given to illustrate possible improvements using this new detection scheme. Such an example is also applicable to the multisensor array problem in which windowing and sequencing signal areas of the array record can produce periodic sequences.","PeriodicalId":131323,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Digital Signal Processing Workshop Proceedings","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121845276","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}
