It is well known that, in the case of highly frequency-selective fading channels, the linear equalizer (LE) can suffer significant performance degradation compared with the decision feedback equalizer (DFE). In this paper, we develop a low-complexity adaptive frequency-domain DFE (AFD-DFE) for single-carrier frequency-division multiple-access (SC-FDMA) systems, where both the feedforward and feedback filters operate in the frequency domain and are adapted using the well-known block recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm. Since this DFE operates entirely in the frequency domain, the complexity of the block RLS algorithm can be substantially reduced when compared with its time-domain counterpart by exploiting a matrix structure in the frequency domain. Furthermore, we extend our formulation to multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) SC-FDMA systems, where we show that the AFD-DFE enjoys a significant reduction in computational complexity when compared with the frequency-domain nonadaptive DFE. Finally, extensive simulations are carried out to demonstrate the robustness of our proposed AFD-DFE to high Doppler and carrier frequency offset (CFO).
