Abstract
In the following, a survey on the most important detection methods is presented. We differentiate in principle between the symbol-by-symbol and the sequence or sequential detection. With the first method, the receive signal q(k) in Figs. 1.1 and 1.5 is decided at every time instant k. The sequential detection scheme takes decisions periodically after the observation of K past samples, e.g., after \(q(0),q(1),\ldots ,q(K-1)\). In this section, we illustrate the key detection methods and consider 4-PSK depicted in Fig. 4.1 as an example. Assume that the intersymbol interference is completely removed and that the signal at the input of the detector is q(k) given by (2.3).
