    In this research an advance variable structure adaptive Multiple Sub-Filters (MSF) based algorithm for single channel Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) is proposed and analyzed. This work suggests a new and improved direction to find the optimum tap-length of adaptive filter employed for AEC. The structure adaptation, supported by a tap-length based weight update approach helps the designed echo canceller to maintain a trade-off between the Mean Square Error (MSE) and time taken to attain the steady state MSE. The work done in this paper focuses on replacing the fixed length sub-filters in existing MSF based AEC algorithms which brings refinements in terms of convergence, steady state error and tracking over the single long filter, different error and common error algorithms. A dynamic structure selective coefficient update approach to reduce the structural and computational cost of adaptive design is discussed in context with the proposed algorithm. Simulated results reveal a comparative performance analysis over proposed variable structure multiple sub-filters designs and existing fixed tap-length sub-filters based acoustic echo cancellers

    A Robust Zero-point Attraction LMS Algorithm on Near Sparse System Identification

    Full text link
    The newly proposed l1l_1 norm constraint zero-point attraction Least Mean Square algorithm (ZA-LMS) demonstrates excellent performance on exact sparse system identification. However, ZA-LMS has less advantage against standard LMS when the system is near sparse. Thus, in this paper, firstly the near sparse system modeling by Generalized Gaussian Distribution is recommended, where the sparsity is defined accordingly. Secondly, two modifications to the ZA-LMS algorithm have been made. The l1l_1 norm penalty is replaced by a partial l1l_1 norm in the cost function, enhancing robustness without increasing the computational complexity. Moreover, the zero-point attraction item is weighted by the magnitude of estimation error which adjusts the zero-point attraction force dynamically. By combining the two improvements, Dynamic Windowing ZA-LMS (DWZA-LMS) algorithm is further proposed, which shows better performance on near sparse system identification. In addition, the mean square performance of DWZA-LMS algorithm is analyzed. Finally, computer simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm and verify the result of theoretical analysis.Comment: 20 pages, 11 figure
