Abstract

The structure of an adaptive time varying linear filter largely depends on its tap-length and the delay units connected to it. The no of taps is one of the most important structural parameters of the liner adaptive filter. Determining the system order or length is not a trivial task. Fixing the tap-length at a fixed value sometimes results in unavoidable issues with the adaptive design like insufficient modeling and adaptation noise. On the other hand a dynamic tap-length adaptation algorithm automatically finds the optimum order of the adaptive filter to have a tradeoff between the convergence and steady state error. It is always difficult to get satisfactory performance in high noise environment employing an adaptive filter for any identification problem. High noise decreases the Signal to noise ratio and sometimes creates wandering issues. In this chapter an improved pseudo-fractional tap-length selection algorithm has been proposed and analyzed to find out the optimum tap-length which best balances the complexity and steady state performance specifically in high noise environment. A steady-state performance analysis has been presented to formulate the steady state tap-length in correspondence with the proposed algorithm. Simulations and results are provided to observe the analysis and to make a comparison with the existing tap-length learning methods.
