ABSTRACT:
Communication signal equalization methods and systems are disclosed. A CDMA signal having a data portion and a known portion including a known or repeated data sequence and received over a multipath communication channel represents a linear convolution between the multipath channel and a transmitted CDMA signal. A channel estimate of the communication channel is determined from the known portion, and the CDMA signal is translated into a new CDMA signal which is a cyclic convolution with the channel estimate. A frequency domain representation of the new CDMA signal is adjusted using the channel estimate to produce a frequency domain representation of an equalized signal.
