Abstract This paper relates with the performance of VSCA adaptive equalization algorithm that is used for the minimization of the intersymbol interference due to the distortion which occurs in the time dispersive channel for the transmission of 16-QAM signal. In the conventional SCA, it is possible to compensates the amplitude and phase in the received signal that are mixed with the intersymbol interference by the constellatin dependent constant by using the 2nd order statistics of the transmitted signal. But in the VSCA, it is possible to the increase the equalization performance by adding the concept of distance adjusted approach for constellation matching. We compare the performance of VSCA and SCA algorithm by computer simulation. For this, the equalizer output signal constellation, residual isi, maximum distortion and MSE were used for perfomance comparison. It was confirmed that, the VSCA algorithm has better than the SCA in every
