Abstract :
This paper presents a new blind equalization algorithm called the multimodulus algorithm (MMA). This algorithm is particularly well suited to applications using two-dimensional transmission schemes such as carrierless AM/PM (CAP) and quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). The paper also discusses some of the advantages provided by MMA when compared to traditional blind equalization algorithms, such as the reduced constellation algorithm (RCA) and the constant modulus algorithm (CMA)
