Question 1
Consider the given data transmission scenario with a channel with impulse response h[n]
and an equalizer, which consists of two adaptive gain factors, c1 and c2 .
The symbols to be transmitted are u[n] {1, +1} and occur with the same probability.
The decision device returns the sign of its input signal (zero is regarded as a positive
number). The channel is known as h[n] = 0.6[n] + [n 1] + 0.6[n 2].
(a) Consider a transmission over the given channel without an equalizer (decision
device only). Calculate the worst-case ISI and answer, whether the decision device
would always be able to decide correctly, or not. What is the optimum delay ?
(b) For the following, set = 1. Find an expression for the error e[n] as a function of
c1 and c2 . (Hint: express the convolution by an inner vector product.)
(c) Assume, we know the auto-correlation sequence ruu [k] of the data. Using this
correlation sequence, find an expression for the mean-square error, i.e., J(c1 , c2 ) =
E{e2 [n]}.
J(c1 ,c2 ) J(c1 ,c2 )
(d) Derive c1
and c2
(e) Assume the transmitted data is white, i.e., ruu [k] = u2 [k]. Calculate the optimum
gain factors.
(f) When this equalizer operates in its optimum (calculated in (e)), will the decision
device always be able to decide correctly?
Question 2
Consider a system identification problem where the orders of both the adaptive and the
unknown transversal filter are 1 (2 coefficients). The output of the unknown system can
be assumed to be accessible without an additive noise source.
