Dual Pulse Shaping Transmission and Equalization for High-Speed Wideband Wireless Communication Systems

摘要

Analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog conversion devices for signals with very large bandwidth are not always available due to technical or cost issues. This limits the realization of very high data-rate digital communication systems. In this paper, we propose a dual pulse shaping (DPS) transmission scheme, which can achieve full Nyquist rate transmission with only a half of the sampling rate for each of the two data streams. Two classes of ideal complementary Nyquist pulses are formulated assuming raised-cosine (RC) pulse shaping. The condition for cross-symbol interference (CSI) free transmission is derived and validated for the proposed pulses. Structures of the DPS transmitter and receiver are described and low-complexity equalization techniques tailored to DPS are proposed. With DPS, a millimeter wave system with commercially available and affordable data conversion devices is exemplified for achieving high-speed low-cost wireless communications. Simulation results with two sets of practical dual spectral shaping pulses are provided. The results verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, with comparison to the benchmark conventional Nyquist pulse shaping system.
