The normalized subband adaptive filtering algorithm provides fast convergence rate for colored input signals as compared to the normalized least mean square algorithm, but it suffers from a poor convergence issue in the α -stable noise. In light of this, the normalized subband p-norm (NSPN) algorithm, which is based on the least mean p-power error (MPE) criterion, is proposed in this study. This technique is not only robust against impulsive noise samples, but it also maintains a fast convergence rate when colored input signals are used. In addition to this, we develop both the steady-state and the transient models of the NSPN algorithm and provide some insights. Then, in order to solve the problem of making a choice regarding the order p in the NSPN algorithm, we design an autonomous system and come up with the NSPN algorithm with a variable p-norm (VP-NSPN). In addition, we offer the TFC-based VP-NSPN algorithm with a fast convergence rate and low steady-state misadjustment simultaneously by making use of the tap-weights feedback-based convex combination (TFC) scheme. In conclusion, simulation results on system identification and acoustic echo cancellation are undertaken in order to validate the superiority of the proposed algorithms and validate the usefulness of the theoretical analysis.

This article develops a subband Hammerstein spline adaptive filtering (SHSAF) algorithm with the exponential hyperbolic cosine (EHC) cost to acquire robustness against non-Gaussian noises, which is called the SHSAF-EHC algorithm. The delayless multiband-structured subband strategy is employed to enhance the convergence property in the Hammerstein-type nonlinear filtering structure. In addition, the statistical performance analysis of SHSAF-EHC is rigorously derived in the mean and mean-square senses. Numerical experiments under non-Gaussian noise scenarios corroborate the accuracy of theoretical findings and validate the superiority of the proposed algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a robust adaptive filter based on kernel risk-sensitive loss for bilinear forms is proposed. The proposed algorithm, called minimum kernel risk-sensitive loss bilinear form (MKRSL-BF), is derived by minimizing the cost function based on the minimum kernel risk-sensitive loss (MKRSL) criterion. The proposed algorithm can obtain the excellent performance when the system is corrupted by the impulsive noise. In addition, to further improve the performance of the MKRSL-BF algorithm, the novel algorithm based on the convex scheme is proposed, which can suppress the confliction between the fast convergence rate and the low steady-state error. Finally, simulations are carried out to verify the advantages of the proposed algorithms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, two arctangent-based normalized subband adaptive filter (Arc-NSAF) algorithms are proposed, which are derived from two different forms of arctangent cost function and their difference is the order of the arctangent computation and the summation operation of the normalized subband error signal. Benefiting from the excellent property of the arctangent function for suppressing impulsive interferences, the proposed Arc-NSAF algorithms not only possess good robustness against impulsive interferences, but also obtain faster convergence rate for the colored input signals. To further improve the convergence performance of the Arc-NSAFs when identifying sparse system, the proportionate versions of the Arc-NSAF algorithms are also proposed. Simulation results have demonstrated the superiority of the proposed algorithms in impulsive interferences environments as compared to their respective competitors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A novel normalized subband adaptive filter algorithm with combined step size is proposed for acoustic echo cancellation, which is derived by utilizing a variable mixing parameter to combine a large step size and a small one, thus providing fast convergence rate and small steady-state error. The mixing parameter is indirectly updated by utilizing the stochastic gradient method which minimizes the sum of squared subband errors. Simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm in terms of the convergence rate and steady-state error as compared to other algorithms mentioned in this paper.

This paper presents a new proportionate normalized subband adaptive filter (PNSAF) algorithm, called the IAF-PNSAF, which assigns an individual activation factor for each filter coefficient instead of a common one for all filter coefficients as in the standard PNSAF algorithm. This algorithm achieves an improved performance in terms of the convergence rate and tracking capability for identifying a highly sparse system. Moreover, to overcome the trade-off of the fixed-step-size IAF-PNSAF algorithm between the fast convergence rate and small steady-state misalignment, its adaptive combination version is proposed. Simulation results for identifying the impulse response with high sparseness have demonstrated that the proposed algorithms outperform their counterparts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

To obtain fast convergence rate and low steady-state error in acoustic echo cancellation, a convex combination scheme of the improved proportionate normalized subband adaptive filter algorithm is proposed. Instead of the gradient method in the conventional combination theory, the mixing parameter is adapted by using the normalized gradient method which makes it more robust to the variations of subband error signals. Also, to implement a smooth transition from the fast filter to the accurate filter, a cyclic feedback of the overall tap-weights giving to all component filters is applied. [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]

Proposed is a novel variable step size normalized subband adaptive filter algorithm, which assigns an individual step size for each subband by minimizing the mean square of the noise-free a posterior subband error. Furthermore, a noniterative shrinkage method is used to recover the noise-free priori subband error from the noisy subband error signal. Simulation results using the colored input signals have demonstrated that the proposed algorithm not only has better tracking capability than the existing subband adaptive filter algorithms, but also exhibits lower steady-state error.
