Construct a constant modulus algorithm (CMA) object
alg = cma(stepsize)
alg = cma(stepsize,leakagefactor)
The cma function creates an adaptive algorithm object that you can use with the lineareq function or dfe function to create an equalizer object. You can then use the equalizer object with the equalize function to equalize a signal. To learn more about the process for equalizing a signal, see Using Adaptive Equalizer Functions and Objects.
Note After you use either lineareq or dfe to create a CMA equalizer object, you should initialize the equalizer object's Weights property with a nonzero vector. Typically, CMA is used with differential modulation; otherwise, the initial weights are very important. A typical vector of initial weights has a 1 corresponding to the center tap and zeros elsewhere. |
alg = cma(stepsize) constructs an adaptive algorithm object based on the constant modulus algorithm (CMA) with a step size of stepsize.
alg = cma(stepsize,leakagefactor) sets the leakage factor of the CMA. leakagefactor must be between 0 and 1. A value of 1 corresponds to a conventional weight update algorithm, while a value of 0 corresponds to a memoryless update algorithm.
The table below describes the properties of the CMA adaptive algorithm object. To learn how to view or change the values of an adaptive algorithm object, see Accessing Properties of an Adaptive Algorithm.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| AlgType | Fixed value, 'Constant Modulus' |
| StepSize | CMA step size parameter, a nonnegative real number |
| LeakageFactor | CMA leakage factor, a real number between 0 and 1 |
Referring to the schematics presented in Overview of Adaptive Equalizer Classes, define w as the vector of all weights wi and define u as the vector of all inputs ui. Based on the current set of weights, w, this adaptive algorithm creates the new set of weights given by
(LeakageFactor) w + (StepSize) u*e
where the * operator denotes the complex conjugate.
