Abstract :
An adaptive decision feedback equalizer (DFE) that uses the least-mean-square (LMS) algorithm may converge slowly or have large excess mean square error. The use of previous decisions in updating the feedforward filter can “whiten” the eigenvalues of the autocorrelation matrix for the feedback filter update without affecting the minimum mean square error making convergence faster and reducing misadjustment. The resultant improvement can be enhanced further by letting the update coefficient constant, μ, be a fixed diagonal matrix
