In recent years, communication engineers put strong emphasis on artificial neural network (ANN)-based algorithms with the aim of increasing the flexibility and autonomy of the system and its components.

Blind Channel Equalization Using Vector-Quantized Variational Autoencoders

no code implementations22 Feb 2023 Jinxiang Song, Vincent Lauinger, Yibo Wu, Christian Häger, Jochen Schröder, Alexandre Graell i Amat, Laurent Schmalen, Henk Wymeersch

Furthermore, we show that for the linear channel, the proposed scheme exhibits better convergence properties than the \ac{MMSE}-based, the \ac{CMA}-based, and the \ac{VAE}-based equalizers in terms of both convergence speed and robustness to variations in training batch size and learning rate.

Improving the Bootstrap of Blind Equalizers with Variational Autoencoders

no code implementations16 Jan 2023 Vincent Lauinger, Fred Buchali, Laurent Schmalen

We evaluate the start-up of blind equalizers at critical working points, analyze the advantages and obstacles of commonly-used algorithms, and demonstrate how the recently-proposed variational autoencoder (VAE) based equalizers can improve bootstrapping.
