A Blind Algorithm for Channel Order Estimation Based on Equalization Cost Function
Addressing the problem of channel order estimation
a blind algorithm for channel order estimation is proposed based on the equalization cost function
which utilizes the architecture of single-input multiple-output (SIMO) finite impulse response (FIR) channels and the statistical characteristic of input/output signals.First
the theoretical asymptotic value of normalized least squares equalization (NLSE) cost function is calculated under the ideal condition
and the link between its corner and channel order is pointed out.Then
its approximate value is analyzed under the practical condition.Finally
a corner optimization factor is introduced
and a channel order estimation algorithm is proposed by examining the NLSE cost function corner.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the algorithm is more robust than the other existing techniques in the case of low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and small leading/trailing channel coefficients
