Abstract

Subband adaptive filtering algorithms can increase the convergence rate of system identification tasks when the input signal is colored. Recently, a new normalized subband adaptive filtering algorithm with sparse subfilters (NSAF-SF) has been proposed, whose main advantage is the lower computational complexity when compared to state-of-the-art subband approaches, while maintaining similar convergence performance. In this paper, the first- and second-order stochastic analyses of the NSAF-SF algorithm are presented in order to provide predictions about its transient and steady-state performances. A relationship between the adaptive subband coefficients and the ideal fullband transfer function is derived, and the algorithm is proven to produce an asymptotically unbiased solution. In addition, a closed-form expression is obtained for the steady-state mean square deviation (MSD) of the subfilter coefficients. Although the proposed analyses use conventional assumptions of statistical independence, they do not assume a specific stochastic characteristic for the input signal (e.g., Gaussianity or whiteness). Transient and steady-state theoretical predictions of the MSD are confirmed by simulations.
