Mean-square deviation analysis of multiband-structured subband adaptive filter algorithm

A multiband-structured subband adaptive filter (MSAF) algorithm was introduced to achieve a fast convergence rate for the correlated input signal. The convergence analysis of the adaptive filter algorithm is an important concept because it provides a guideline to design the adaptive filter. However, the convergence analysis of the MSAF algorithm has not been researched as extensively as that of the normalized least-mean-square algorithm. Therefore, it needs to be researched. In this paper, we present a new approach to the mean-square deviation (MSD) analysis of the MSAF algorithm by using the persistently exciting input and the practical assumption that the stopband attenuation of the prototype filter is high. Unlike the previous analysis, the proposed analysis is possible to be applied to the long-length adaptive filter such as the acoustic echo cancellation. The proposed analysis is also applied to a non-stationary model with a random walk of the optimal weight vector. The simulation results match with the theoretical results in both the transient-state and steady-state MSD.
