| Abstract: | In order to improve the convergence performance of the normalised sign subband adaptive filter (NSSAF), variable step-size matrix normalised sign subband adaptive filter (VSSM-NSSAF) based on the variable multiband structure is proposed. In this method, the energy of the subband posteriori error vector is treated as the cost function and the variable step size matrix as a variable. By solving the optimal step length for each subband to minimize the cost function after each iteration calculation, the best variable step size matrix is obtained. Then we employ the following time-average scheme to get the variable step-size matrix before the next iteration. Compared with the traditional NSSAF algorithm and other improved NSSAF algorithms, the proposed algorithm provides a faster convergence speed and lower steady state misadjustment, regardless of whether the input signal is relevant or not, even if it contains impulse noise. Besides, this method has the advantages of a low computational complexity. |
