Abstract

An extended quadratic residue (QR)-decomposition (QRD)-based RLS-algorithm is introduced, applicable for equalization, allowing an estimate of the transmitted symbol, when it is a-priori unknown. To achieve low-cost implementations strength reduction and square-root free Givens-rotations are applied. Several QRD-based RLS-algorithms are compared in terms of the number of mathematical operations. The QR-RLS-algorithm indicates lowest complexity and is always a good candidate, when a huge training overhead has to be avoided, resulting in an equalizer of less than 15 taps. Finally, the hardware complexity of a 13 MBaud-DFE for wireless ATM is estimated
