Low complexity equalization for single carrier transmissions over doubly-selective channels using linear approximation

In this paper, a low complexity equalizer for single carrier transmissions over doubly selective channels is developed. The main attribute of the proposed equalizer is its low complexity compared to the existing equalizers, which is attained at the expense of a slight performance loss. Simulation results show that the performance of our proposed low complexity equalizer is as good as that of the conventional equalizers with extensive computation complexity.
