Provided is an apparatus for channel equalization in frequency domain, including: a channel estimation unit for estimating a channel on received signal from outside, a channel matched filter for changing channel characteristic of the channel estimated by the channel estimation unit and the received signal to channel characteristic to meet condition required for noncausal filtering, a noncausal filter for changing the channel characteristic changed by the channel matched filter from nonminimum phase channel to minimum phase channel, a reverse channel calculation unit for calculating a reverse of the channel changed by the noncausal filter in frequency domain, and a frequency domain equalization unit for performing channel equalization with respect to the channel changed by the noncausal filter in the frequency domain by using the reverse obtained by the reverse channel calculation unit as coefficients of the frequency domain equalization apparatus.

Apparatus for equalizing channel in frequency domain and method therefor

A decision feedback equalization apparatus includes a channel estimation unit estimating a channel on received signal based on the received signal and a training sequence; a channel matched filter maximizing SNR from the channel estimated by the channel estimation unit changing channel characteristics of the received signal; a noncausal filter approximating the changed channel; an equalizer input signal storage unit storing received symbols passed through the channel matched and the noncausal filters; a channel equalization unit performing a decision feedback equalization; a Trellis decoder detecting symbol from a channel-equalized signal; a mode selection unit selecting a specific mode; an error signal calculator comparing an output signal of the selected mode with an output signal of the channel equalization unit to calculate an error signal; and a tap coefficient updater updating tap coefficients to the channel equalization unit, an output signal from the storage unit, and an output signal from the Trellis decoder.
