A new diffusion sign subband adaptive filtering algorithm with an individual weighting factor (IWF-DSSAF) for each subband is proposed for distributed estimation in the impulsive noise environment. Since the inherent decorrelating property of subband adaptive filtering is fully used, the proposed algorithm obtains better performance in terms of convergence rate and tracking capability as compared with the diffusion sign subband adaptive filtering (DSSAF) algorithm. In addition, the stability analysis of the IWF-DSSAF algorithm is performed based on Price's theorem. After that, in order to obtain a faster convergence rate in sparse distributed system identification, the improved proportionate IWF-DSSAF algorithm is proposed, in which a gain distribution matrix is incorporated into the IWF-DSSAF algorithm. Finally, simulations are carried out in the distributed system identification context. The results of simulations demonstrate that the proposed algorithms achieve better convergence performance than their counterparts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

To improve the robustness of subband adaptive filter (SAF) against impulsive interferences, we propose two modified SAF algorithms with an individual scale function for each subband, which are derived by maximizing correntropy-based cost function and minimizing logarithm-based cost function, respectively, called MCC-SAF and LC-SAF. Whenever the impulsive interference happens, the subband scale functions can sharply drop the step size, which eliminate the influence of outliers on the tap-weight vector update. Therefore, the proposed algorithms are robust against impulsive interferences and exhibit the faster convergence rate and better tracking capability than the sign SAF (SSAF) algorithm. Besides, in impulse-free interference environments, the proposed algorithms achieve similar convergence performance as the normalized SAF (NSAF) algorithm. Simulation results have demonstrated the performance of our proposed algorithms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
