As a result of the high performance requirements and complexity, adaptive equalization filters require significant power. These filters are often implemented in hardware rather than software on a DSP. A power scalable adaptive equalizer is presented where the power scales with the required precision through the use of dynamic tap length and bit precision. Using these techniques, a power reduction from 20.4 mW in a fixed length and bit precision filter to a minimum of 6.4 mW is demonstrated.","PeriodicalId":236050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on Signal Processing and its Applications (Cat.No.01EX467)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114205993","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}

Previous work has shown that one can decompose any time-frequency distribution (TFD) in Cohen's class into a weighted sum of spectrograms. This is accomplished by decomposing the kernel of the distribution in terms of an orthogonal set of analysis windows. The spectrograms obtained using these analysis windows are then linearly combined with proper weights to form the desired TFD. The goal is a full and effective basis for representing TFD. Successful application of this theory offers very fast computation of TFD, since very few analysis windows may be needed and fast, recursive spectrogram algorithms can be used.","PeriodicalId":236050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on Signal Processing and its Applications (Cat.No.01EX467)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124025011","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}

The technique uses classical morphological operators and a simple binary edge detector.

Previously presented estimators based on the cyclic prefix are either biased or have high complexity for this environment. We show that with proper choice of signal model, the complexity can be reduced considerably while maintaining the performance. Part of the novelty lies in the proper decomposition of correlation matrices that appear in the ML estimator. The new estimator structure consists of a linear filter, followed by an auto-correlating filterbank and a maximization.","PeriodicalId":236050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on Signal Processing and its Applications (Cat.No.01EX467)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128699344","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}

Each cluster is used as a training set for training a particular DCNN. This ensures the generalization capability of DCNNs.

For binary symmetric channels, we use the index assignment resulting from the Linde, Buzo and Gray (1980) LBG design of the codebook, which ensures a low channel distortion. For the more challenging case of memory channels we consider index assignments specifically designed. We show that a significant perceptual improvement can be achieved with our post-processing scheme both for memoryless and memory channels.","PeriodicalId":236050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on Signal Processing and its Applications (Cat.No.01EX467)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125697616","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}
