Since the wireless receiver doesn＇t require a training sequence,a blind equalization channel is implemented in the receiver to increase the throughput of the system. To improve the performances of both the blind equalizer and the system,a joint receiving mechanismincluding variable step size（ VSS） modified constant modulus algorithms（ MC-MA） and modified decision directed modulus algorithms（ MD DMA） is proposed to ameliorate the convergence speed and mean square error（ MSE） performance and combat the phase error when using high order QAM modulation.
