Summary:We consider decision feedback equalization of doubly selective channels modeled via basis expansion models (BEM). Recently there has been some interest in designing time-variant serial FIR (finite impulse response) decision feedback equalizers (DFE) using complex exponential (CE-) BEMs for equalizers in addition to using CE-BEM for modeling the channel itself. In this paper we show that an alternative formulation of the FIR DFE based on a CE-BEM channel model yields the same or an improved BER at a lower computational cost, without incuring the approximation error inherent in CE-BEM modeling of equalizers.
