We consider blind equalization for block transmissions over the frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. In the absence of pilot symbols the receiver must be able to perform joint equalization and blind channel identification. Relying on a mixed discrete-continuous state-space representation of the communication system we introduce a blind Bayesian equalization algorithm based on a Gaussian mixture parameterization of the a posteriori probability density function pdf of the transmitted data and the channel. The performances of the proposed algorithm are compared with existing blind equalization techniques using numerical simulations for quasi-static and time-varying frequency selective wireless channels. 1. Introduction Blind equalization has attracted considerable attention in the communication literature over the last three decades. The main advantage of blind transmissions is that they avoid the need for the transmission of training symbols and hence leave more communication resources for data. The pioneering blind equalizers proposed by Sato 1 and Godard 2 use low-complexity finite impulse response filters. However these methods suffer from local and slow convergence and may
