“…WL processing is utilized in communication systems that apply asymmetric constellations e.g., [48], [256], [278]- [280] , and/or encounter improper noise, e.g., [45]. Additionally, it is exploited in lineardispersion STBC, e.g., [277], [281], [282], and, recently, in IC and BC [73], [82]. 1) Equalization: In band-limited, high data rate digital communication systems, equalizers flatten the channel frequency response in order to minimize channel distortion on the transmitted information symbols.…”
