Analysis and design of a signed regressor LMS algorithm for stationary and nonstationary adaptive filtering with correlated Gaussian data

摘要

A least mean square (LMS) algorithm with clipped data is studied for use when updating the weights of an adaptive filter with correlated Gaussian input. Both stationary and nonstationary environments are considered. Three main contributions are presented. The first, corresponding to the stationary case, is a proof of the convergence of the algorithm in the case of a M-dependent sequence of correlated observation vectors. It is proven that the steady state mean square misalignment of the adaptive filter weights has an upper bound proportional to the algorithm step size mu . The second contribution, also belonging to the stationary case, is the derivation of the expressions of convergence time N/sub c/ and steady state mean square excess estimation error epsilon . It is shown that N/sub c/ is proportional to 1/( mu lambda ), with lambda being the minimum eigenvalue of the input covariance matrix. It is also shown that the product N/sub c/ epsilon is independent of mu . For a given epsilon , the convergence time increases with the eigenvalue spread of the input covariance matrix and the filter length, as well as its input noise power. The range of mu that achieves tolerable values of N/sub c/ and epsilon is determined. The third contribution is concerned with the nonstationary case. It is shown that the mean square excess estimation error is the sum of the two terms with opposite dependencies on mu . An optimum value of mu is derived.
