Robust Adaptive Volterra Filter Under Maximum Correntropy Criteria in Impulsive Environments

摘要

As a robust adaptation criterion, the maximum correntropy criterion (MCC) has gained increased attention due to its successful application in the adaptation, especially in nonlinear and non-Gaussian situations. In this paper, the second-order Volterra (SOV) filter based on MCC is derived, which is called MCC-SOV. It combines the advantages of the SOV filter and MCC. However, similar to the conventional adaptive algorithm, the proposed MCC-SOV filter has a tradeoff between convergence rate and steady-state error. In order to solve this problem, we present a combination of the MCC-SOV filter by combining Volterra kernels, which is called CK-MCC-SOV. In addition, a weight transfer method is applied to improve the performance of the proposed filter in terms of the convergence rate and the steady-state error. Finally, simulations are carried out to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed filters.
