Adaptive blind channel identification algorithm based on linear prediction for SIMO FIR systems

An adaptive algorithm for blind identification of single-input multiple-output (SIMO) FIR systems is proposed. It is based on the one-step forward linear prediction (LP) technique and can be implemented by an RLS adaptation. Unlike most second-order statistics (SOS)-based approaches, the proposed solution does not require the computation of the correlation matrix or its inverse explicitly. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed approach is able to deliver better performance compared with the typical batch algorithm. It is also observed that the proposed algorithm can tolerate the appearance of near common zeros among the subchannels.
