Abstract: | We consider a practical maximum-likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE) equalizer on multipath fading channels in conjunction with an adaptive channel estimator consisting of a least mean square (LMS) estimator and a linear channel predictor, instead of assuming perfect channel estimates. A new LMS estimator model is proposed which can accurately characterize the statistical behavior of the LMS estimator over multipath fading channels. Based on this model, a new upper-bound on block error rate is derived under the consideration of imperfect channel estimates. Computer simulations verify that our analytical results can correctly predict the real system performance and are applicable over a wide range of the step size parameter of the LMS estimator |
