Abstract :
This letter presents a modified linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) turbo equalization scheme that uses an augmented real matrix representation for quadrature modulation systems. In the proposed scheme, the estimates of the two quadrature components of the transmitted symbol have both their individual variances and their covariance considered. Hence, the new scheme is able to achieve a significant performance improvement while retaining a complexity similar to that of the existing LMMSE turbo equalization scheme.
