In this paper, we present an adaptive blind equalization for the frequency selective channel in the presence of the frequency offset. The adaptive recursions is based on the pseudo Newton method with stochastic gradient algorithm initialization (PNSI). We employ a the second order phase lock loop (PLL) to recover the frequency offset. We introduce a pseudo maximum likelihood (ML) method to estimate the frequency offset. The recovered symbols from these methods are compared by simulations which reveal the superiority of the proposed pseudo ML algorithm.
