Abstract

This paper applies the Bayesian conditional decision feedback estimator (BCDFE) to rapidly fading frequency selective channels. The BCDFE is a model-based deconvolution algorithm which jointly estimates the transmitted data and channel parameters. The BCDFE smoothly transitions between trained and blind operation and consequently provides robust performance in rapidly fading channels. We provide a brief derivation of the BCDFE and characterize the performance on the land mobile radio channel. We assess the BCDFE's principle design characteristics and the resulting performance in both transient and steady-state operation. The effects of delay spread, Doppler spread, and cochannel interference on the bit error probability performance are also presented. The BCDFE demonstrates many of the desirable characteristics of an equalizer for mobile radio.
