A design of Adaptive Decision-feedback Equalizer Module using Redundant Binary Complex Filter

A new architecture for high-speed implementation of adaptive decision-feedback equalizer (ADFE) applicable to wide-band digital wireless modems is described. Rather than using conventional two's complement arithmetic, a novel complex-valued filter structure is devised, which is based on redundant binary (RB) arithmetic. The proposed RB complex-valued filter reduces the critical path delay of ADFE, as well as leads to a more compact implementation than conventional methods. Also, the carry-propagation free (CPF) operation of the RB arithmetic enhances its speed. To demonstrate the proposed method, a prototype chip set is designed. They are designed to contain two complexvalued filter taps along with their coefficient updating circuits, and can be cascaded to implement loger filter taps for high bit-rate applications.
