Abstract

Introduction. Introduction. To combat inter-symbol interference resulting from multipath signal propagation, spreading of the signal frequency spectrum, channel equalizing, OFDM-multiplexing with orthogonal frequency division of channels is used. To reduce the influence of non-linear signal distortions, methods of pre-distortion, diversity reception, as well as special algorithms for digital processing of the demodulator output signal are used. The effect of additive noise is reduced by using a filter matched to the signal. Objective. It is advisable to develop a matched filtering algorithm that allows one to simultaneously reduce the influence of additive noise, non-linear signal distortions and its multipath propagation on the correct message reception. The idea of selecting the orthogonality weight can also be used to achieve the goal. Result. To reduce the influence of non-linear distortions on the correct reception of a message under conditions of multipath signal propagation and additive interference, it is proposed to use two stages of signal processing. The first step is to minimize the noise dispersion caused by intersymbol interference and non-linear signal distortions. The specified dispersion is minimized by determining the orthogonality weight of the basis-functions that make up the signal. The second step is to use a classic matched filter. The proposed two-stage matched filtering algorithm makes it possible to simultaneously reduce the influence of non-linear distortions, intersymbol interference resulting from multipath propagation, and additive interference on the correct signal reception. Signals distorted and delayed in time relative to the main signal are proposed to be considered as additive interference.
