Blind equalization (BE) technology is a new adaptive technology. BE only uses the prior information of received signals to equalize the channel characteristics, so training sequence is not needed. The output sequence is close to the transmitted sequence. Inter-symbol interference is overcome effectively and the quality of communication is improved by BE. Neural network (NN) is a cross-edge discipline of neural science, information science, and computer science. NN has the following abilities such as massively parallel, distributed storage and processing, self-organizing, adaptive, self-learning, and highly fault tolerant. The combination of NN and BE can improve convergence performance and equalization effect. The combination of NN and BE is a hot research topic in communication, signal, and information processing. It has important theoretical significance and practical value.

This book was translated by Yu Bai ().

The NN and BE algorithms are combined, and the new neural network is systematically studied. Some research results have been published in important academic journals and also in international and domestic conferences. This book is a summary of the results of these studies. The latest research trends and frontiers in neural network blind equalization algorithm in domestic and international are reflected basically in the book.

This book is divided into eight chapters.

The first chapter is introduction. The significance and application fields of blind equalization are given. The classification and research status of NN blind equalization algorithms are summarized. The research background and main work in this book are pointed out.

The second chapter describes the fundamental theory of NN. The concept, structure, algorithms, and equalization criterion of blind equalization are introduced. The fundamental principles and learning methods of NN blind equalization algorithm are elaborated. The evaluation of blind equalization algorithm is analyzed.

The third chapter is about the research of blind equalization algorithms based on FFNN. BE algorithm based on feed-forward neural networks (four-layer, three-layer, and five-layer) are studied. BE algorithms based on momentum term, time-varying momentum term, and time-varying step are studied, respectively.

The fourth chapter is about the research of blind equalization algorithms based on FBNN. BE algorithms based on bilinear recurrent NN, diagonal recurrent NN, and quasi-diagonal recurrent NN are studied, respectively. The blind equalization algorithms based on mean square error nonlinear function with time-varying step diagonal recurrent NN and with time-varying step quasi-diagonal recurrent NN are studied, respectively.

The fifth chapter is the research of blind equalization algorithms based on FNN. The blind equalization algorithm based on fuzzy NN filter, fuzzy NN controller, and fuzzy NN classifier is studied, respectively.
