A correntropy inspired variable step-size sign algorithm against impulsive noises.

The adaptive variable step-size technique is an effective way to improve the convergence rate of an adaptive filtering algorithm. However, for most existing variable step-size sign algorithm against impulsive noise, either the performance is not good enough, or the calculation is complex. In this paper, a correntropy inspired variable step-size method for sign algorithm is proposed. The new variable step-size method is computationally simple and robust to impulsive noises. Theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can achieve desirable performance with low computational complexity in presence of impulsive noises.
