Low-complexity and blind receiver in-phase/quadrature imbalances compensation and estimation in the frequency domain
Abstract:
A frequency domain (FD) 4×2 multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) equalizer based on radially directed equalizer is proposed to compensate receiver in-phase/quadrature (IQ) imbalances of M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation signals. This algorithm has a significantly lower complexity compared with a conventional time-domain 4×2 MIMO equalizer. Furthermore, each of imperfection estimations is derived from the converged discrete frequency response of the FD 4×2 MIMO equalizer. The simulation and experimental results indicated that the receiver (Rx) IQ imbalances were fully compensated by the proposed equalizer and precisely estimated by estimators, even for long-haul transmission with Rx IQ imbalances varying over a wide range.
