Open publisher page 346 citations

Abstract

This paper presents a new blind equalization algorithm called multimodulus algorithm (MMA). This algorithm combines the benefits of the well-known reduced constellation algorithm (RCA) and constant modulus algorithm (CMA). In addition, MMA provides more flexibility than RCA and CMA, and is better suited to take advantage of the symbol statistics of certain types of signal constellations, such as nonsquare constellations, very dense constellations, and some wrong solutions.
