Abstract

A MIMO Decision Feedback Equalizer improves operation of a receiver by cancelling the spatio-temporal interference effects caused by the MIMO channel memory with a set of FIR filters in both the feedforward and the feedback MIMO filters. The coefficients of these FIR filters can be fashioned to provide a variety of controls by the designer.
