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.

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]

This paper presents a new sign subband adaptive filter (SSAF) algorithm with an individual-weighting-factor (IWF) for each subband, instead of a common weighting factor in the original SSAF algorithm, called the IWF-SSAF. Each individual weighting factor only depends on the corresponding subband input signal power. Compared with the SSAF algorithm, the proposed approach fully utilizes the inherent decorrelating property of subband adaptive filter for colored inputs, leading to a better convergence performance. After that, to further enhance the performance of the IWF-SSAF in a sparse system, an improved proportionate IWF-SSAF (IWF-IPSSAF) algorithm is proposed. The proposed algorithms not only inherit the good robustness of sign algorithm against impulsive interferences, but also obtain a significant improvement in the performance as compared to their counterparts (i.e., SSAF and IPSSAF), in terms of the convergence rate and tracking capability. Besides, the IWF-IPSSAF algorithm has faster convergence rate than the IWF-SSAF algorithm for sparse impulse responses. Finally, the performances of two proposed algorithms are demonstrated in the system identification and the acoustic echo cancellation with double-talk. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• This paper provides the robust SAF-LHC-MNAG algorithm for nonlinear system identification in impulsive noise scenarios. • The proposed algorithm can accelerate the convergence under the premise of low steady-state error. • The convergence condition and the mean square performance of the SAF-LHC-MNAG algorithm are given. • The proposed algorithm is implemented to identify the hysteresis model of the piezoelectric actuator. This paper proposes a novel spline adaptive filtering (SAF) algorithm for nonlinear system identification under impulsive noise environments. This algorithm combines the logarithmic hyperbolic cosine (LHC) cost function and the modified Nesterov accelerated gradient (MNAG) learning method, which is called the SAF-LHC-MNAG algorithm. The LHC cost function can reduce the sensitivity of SAF to large outliers and improve the robustness to impulsive noises. Additionally, the MNAG method can further accelerate the convergence under the premise of low steady-state error. Performance analysis of this algorithm is carried out and supported by simulations. Numerical results show that the SAF-LHC-MNAG algorithm has better convergence performance than some existing SAF algorithms. Besides, experimental results confirm the effectiveness of SAF-LHC-MNAG for the accurate identification of nonlinear hysteresis system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• The variable step-size widely linear complex-valued NLMS (VSS-WL-CNLMS) algorithm which is applicable to the case of highly correlated input is proposed, where the variable step-size (VSS) is derived by minimizing the mean-square deviation (MSD). • The proposed VSS-WL-CNLMS algorithm is convergent in the mean square sense. • Based on the approximate uncorrelating transform and Rayleigh distribution, the theoretical transient and stead-state behaviors of the VSS-WL-CNLMS algorithm are analyzed in detail. The shrinkage widely linear complex-valued least mean square (SWL-CLMS) algorithm with a variable step-size (VSS) overcomes the tradeoff between fast convergence and low steady-state misalignment, but meanwhile suffers from instability for highly correlated input signals because of the gradient noise amplification problem. To obtain a VSS that is also applicable to the case of highly correlated input signals, in this paper, we propose the VSS widely linear complex-valued normalized least mean square (VSS-WL-CNLMS) algorithm, where the VSS is derived by minimizing the mean-square deviation (MSD). Owing to the normalization, the VSS-WL-CNLMS algorithm is convergent in the mean square sense. By using the Rayleigh distribution, we calculate the mean step-size, which is then combined with the approximate uncorrelating transform to analyze the transient and steady-state mean square error (MSE) behaviors. Simulations for system identification scenario show that the proposed VSS-WL-CNLMS algorithm outperforms some well-known techniques and verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis.
