Abstract

A blind equalization technique--the multimodulus algorithm (MMA)--adapts coefficients of an equalizer so as to minimize dispersion of the output samples of the equalizer around piecewise linear contours of a signal space. The MMA technique is illustrated in the context of both square and non-square signal point constellations.
