Proportionate Recursive Maximum Correntropy Criterion Adaptive Filtering Algorithms and their Performance Analysis

The maximum correntropy criterion (MCC) has been employed to design outlier-robust adaptive filtering algorithms, among which the recursive MCC (RMCC) algorithm is a typical one. Motivated by the success of our recently proposed proportionate recursive least squares (PRLS) algorithm for sparse system identification, we propose to introduce the proportionate updating (PU) mechanism into the RMCC, leading to two sparsity-aware RMCC algorithms: the proportionate recursive MCC (PRMCC) algorithm and the combinational PRMCC (CPRMCC) algorithm. The CPRMCC is implemented as an adaptive convex combination of two PRMCC filters. For PRMCC, its stability condition and mean-square performance were analyzed. Based on the analysis, optimal parameter selection in nonstationary environments was obtained. Performance study of CPRMCC was also provided and showed that the CPRMCC performs at least as well as the better component PRMCC filter in steady state. Numerical simulations of sparse system identification corroborate the advantage of proposed algorithms as well as the validity of theoretical analysis

Study of L0-norm constraint normalized subband adaptive filtering algorithm

Limited by fixed step-size and sparsity penalty factor, the conventional sparsity-aware normalized subband adaptive filtering (NSAF) type algorithms suffer from trade-off requirements of high filtering accurateness and quicker convergence behavior. To deal with this problem, this paper proposes variable step-size L0-norm constraint NSAF algorithms (VSS-L0-NSAFs) for sparse system identification. We first analyze mean-square-deviation (MSD) statistics behavior of the L0-NSAF algorithm innovatively in according to a novel recursion form and arrive at corresponding expressions for the cases that background noise variance is available and unavailable, where correlation degree of system input is indicated by scaling parameter r. Based on derivations, we develop an effective variable step-size scheme through minimizing the upper bounds of the MSD under some reasonable assumptions and lemma. To realize performance improvement, an effective reset strategy is incorporated into presented algorithms to tackle with non-stationary situations. Finally, numerical simulations corroborate that the proposed algorithms achieve better performance in terms of estimation accurateness and tracking capability in comparison with existing related algorithms in sparse system identification and adaptive echo cancellation circumstances.Comment: 15 pages,15 figure

An Extended Version of the Proportional Adaptive Algorithm Based on Kernel Methods for Channel Identification with Binary Measurements, Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2022, nr 3

In recent years, kernel methods have provided an important alternative solution, as they offer a simple way of expanding linear algorithms to cover the non-linear mode as well. In this paper, we propose a novel recursive kernel approach allowing to identify the finite impulse response (FIR) in non-linear systems, with binary value output observations. This approach employs a kernel function to perform implicit data mapping. The transformation is performed by changing the basis of the data In a high-dimensional feature space in which the relations between the different variables become linearized. To assess the performance of the proposed approach, we have compared it with two other algorithms, such as proportionate normalized least-meansquare (PNLMS) and improved PNLMS (IPNLMS). For this purpose, we used three measurable frequency-selective fading radio channels, known as the broadband radio access Network (BRAN C, BRAN D, and BRAN E), which are standardized by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), and one theoretical frequency selective channel, known as the Macchi’s channel. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm offers better results, even in high noise environments, and generates a lower mean square error (MSE) compared with PNLMS and IPNLMS
