Description
Summary:This letter proposes a new frequency domain turbo equalization algorithm based on nonlinear minimum-mean- squared-error (MMSE) estimation. The conceptual basis of the proposed equalizer is the probabilistic data association (PDA) filtering. It is shown that by performing internal equalizer iterations, of which structure is resulted from the algorithm derivation according to the PDA concept, the convergence properties, analytical and verified by simulations, can be significantly improved over conventional MMSE turbo equalization techniques. Results of the simulations conducted to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm and to verify the accuracy of the analysis are presented in this letter.
