A New Normalized Subband Adaptive Filter Algorithm with Individual Variable Step Sizes

Proposed is a novel variable step size normalized subband adaptive filter (NVSS-NSAF) algorithm, which assigns an individual step size for each subband by minimizing the mean-square of the noise-free a posterior subband error. Furthermore, a noniterative shrinkage method is used to recover the noise-free a priori subband error from the noisy subband error signal. Simulation results using the colored input signals have demonstrated that the proposed algorithm not only has better tracking capability than the existing subband adaptive filter algorithms, but also exhibits lower steady-state error.
