A robust decision feedback equalizer for ATSC DTV receivers

Least mean square （LMS） decision feedback equalizer （DFE） is preferred as an effective solution to coping with inter-symbol interference （ISI） for ATSC digital television （DTV） receivers. In DTV transmission environment, echo delay often covers several hundreds symbols, which leads to very large-scale equalizer. One consequence of the large-scale equalizer is the very slow convergence, which combined with error propagation, inherent drawback of DFE, seriously deteriorates the performance of the receivers, especially in severe channels. More working modes and corresponding robust control mechanism were given to help the equalizer converge to the stable state smoothly. Simulation results show that the improved equalizer can perform better, especially in the severe channels.     

动面生锈对低里程制动抖动现象的影响研究

基于某车型持续出现的低里程制动抖动现象的调查研究,分析了该车型出现低里程制动抖动的可能性原因。通过盐雾处理模拟制动盘自然锈蚀过程,并实车路试再现了该车型低里程制动抖动发生过程,提出了制动面生锈不均匀是造成低里程制动抖动的主要原因的结论。
