In all presented analyses of the normalized subband adaptive filter (NSAF) algorithm, there is a common assumption that the length of the adaptive filter is equal to that of the unknown system. In many practices, however, the adaptive filter usually works in an under-modeling situation. Namely, the length of the adaptive filter is less than that of the unknown system. Therefore, for this case, the existing analysis results for the NSAF algorithm are not applicable. In this paper, we analyze the performance of the deficient length NSAF algorithm based on some reasonable assumptions and approximations. More precisely, the expressions that characterize the transient-state and steady-state mean-square behavior of the algorithm are presented. Simulation results in various scenarios support our theoretical expressions. In addition, based on our analyses, a variable step size NSAF algorithm suitable for the under-modeling case is developed, which improves the performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In order to improve the filter׳s performance when identifying sparse system, this paper develops two sparse-aware algorithms by incorporating the l 0 -norm constraint of the weight vector into the conventional normalized subband adaptive filter (NSAF) algorithm. The first algorithm is obtained from the principle of the minimum perturbation; and the second one is based on the gradient descent principle. The resulting algorithms have almost the same convergence and steady-state performance while the latter saves computational complexity. What׳s more, the performance of both algorithms is analyzed by resorting to some assumptions commonly used in the analyses of adaptive algorithms. Simulation results in the context of sparse system identification not only demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms, but also verify the theoretical analyses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the presence of impulsive noises, the normalized least mean M-estimate (NLMM) algorithm has behaved better robustness and convergence than the normalized least mean square (NLMS) algorithm. In order to further solve the trade-off of the NLMM algorithm between convergence rate and steady-state misadjustment, we design a combined step-size (CSS) scheme that combines large and small step-sizes through an adaptive mixing factor, and the resulting CSS-NLMM algorithm obtains fast convergence and low steady-state misadjustment simultaneously. Importantly, the proposed CSS scheme can be straightforwardly extended to other robust NLMS algorithms. Moreover, the performance analysis of the CSS-NLMM algorithm is provided. Simulation results in impulsive noises have supported the effectiveness of the proposed CSS-NLMM algorithm and its performance analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a family of robust set-membership normalized subband adaptive filtering (RSM-NSAF) algorithms for acoustic echo cancellation (AEC). By using a new robust set-membership error bound, the RSM-NSAF algorithm obtains improved robustness against impulsive noises and decreased steady-state misalignment relative to the conventional set-membership NSAF (SM-NSAF) algorithm. To exploit the sparsity of the impulse response, the L0 norm constraint robust set-membership NSAF ( L0 -RSM-NSAF), robust set-membership improved proportionate NSAF (RSM-IPNSAF), and L0 norm constraint robust set-membership improved proportionate NSAF ( L0 -RSM-IPNSAF) algorithms are derived by minimizing a differentiable cost function that utilizes the Riemannian distance between the updated and previous weight vectors as well as the L0 norm of the weighted updated weight vector. Simulations in AEC application confirm the improvements of the proposed algorithms in performance. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
