Abstract
We present a signal space partitioning technique for realizing the optimal Bayesian decision feedback equalizer (DFE). It is known that when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) tends to infinity, the decision boundary of the Bayesian DFE is asymptotically piecewise linear and consists of several hyperplanes. The proposed technique determines these hyperplanes explicitly and uses them to partition the observation signal space. The resulting equalizer is made up of a set of parallel linear discriminant functions and a Boolean mapper. Unlike the existing signal space partitioning technique of Kim and Moon (1998), which involves complex combinatorial search and optimization in design, our design procedure is simple and straightforward, and guarantees to achieve the asymptotic Bayesian DFE.
