VAMP-Inspired Self-Iterative Adaptive Equalization for MIMO Underwater Acoustic Communications

Published: 12 June 2024 Publication History

Abstract

The channel estimation (CE)-based vector approximate message passing (VAMP) soft equalizer (SE) has been proven to be an excellent technique of eliminating the inter-symbol interference (ISI) in single-carrier underwater acoustic (UWA) communications. It is attributed to the expectation propagation (EP)-like self-iterative mechanism between an inner soft slicer (ISS) and an inner soft equalizer (ISE). Inspired by that, we propose a direct-adaptive (DA) VAMP-SE for multiple-input multiple-input (MIMO) UWA communications in this pape. The proposed DA-VAMP-SE consist of the same ISS as the CE-VAMP-SE but a new ISE in form of DA-SE. For the new ISE, the extrinsic symbol knowledge is directly obtained via adaptive filtering instead of the EP-type message passing. The DA-VAMP-SE has the advantages of strong channel-tracking ability and low computational cost. Deep-sea experimental results showed that the proposed DA-VAMP-SE outperforms the CE-VAMP-SE and other typical SEs under fast time-varying UWA channels.
