This work deals with an extension of the standard recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm. It allows to prune irrelevant coefficients of a linear adaptive filter with sparse impulse response and it provides a regularization method with automatic adjustment of the regularization parameter. New update equations for the inverse auto-correlation matrix estimate are derived that account for the continuing shrinkage of the matrix size. In case of densely populated impulse responses of length M , the computational complexity of the algorithm stays O(A1') as for standard RLS while for sparse impulse responses the new algorithm becomes much more efficient through the adaptive shrinkage of the dimension of the coefficient space. The algorithm has been successfully applied to the identification of sparse channel models (as in mobile radio or echo cancellation). INTRODUCTlONLinear-in-parameters models(1) with the observed noisy output z[nl, the weight vectorare considered. Many applications of these models share the features that the excitation signal Z[R] for the adaptive system i s not always persistently exciting and that the structure of the model does not match the structure of the reference system. One mismatch example would be a too high order of the adaptive filter. In the first case the covariance matrix estimate blows up such that the adaptive algorithm gets unstable. A common stabilization method for such situations is the regularization of the auto-correlation matrix estimate [l]. The second feature of model mismatch is due to the incomplete insight into the structure of the reference system. To guarantee some predefined error power after convergence, one has to select a conservative, i.e. overestimated. model structure which takes into account our G.

In the case of an echo-canceler, where the echo-impulse response varies significantly over different environments, one has to initialize a conservative model which can handle the longest impulse-response expected to occur in practice. The inclusion of parameters in the model that are irrelevant from the viewpoint of a decrease in the error still causes an increase in the variance of the parameter estimates \t[n] of the adaptive system compared to the variance ofthe estimates for an exactly matching model structure. In addition, the tracking performance of the adaptive filter gets reduced due to the inclusion of irrelevant parameters.In the statistics and machine learning literature this problem gets addressed by subset selection algorithms. In this work the algorithm proposed in [2], which simultaneously performs subset selection and adaptive regularization, is incorporated in a recursive least squares adaptive algorithm.The Bayesian treatment of regularization using the evidence procedure [3] offers a simple way to estimate the regularization parameter and even allows an extension to estimate a re...
One way to deal with non‐linearity in the case of time harmonic excitation of the electric and magnetic fields in ferromagnetic media is to introduce an effective material to model the ferromagnetic region. This fictitious material is constant throughout a period but inhomogeneous and it takes into account the non‐linear relationship between the field quantities. Several methods to create an effective magnetization curve are presented and different finite element formulations are applied to these. Some of these methods are known from the literature for 1D and 2D problems but not for 3D ones and they have only be used for a magnetic vector potential formulation so far. In the present paper they are extended for general vector and scalar potential formulations. Further possible ways to introduce such an effective material to take into account saturation effects are shown. All these different methods are investigated on a non‐linear 3D time harmonic eddy current problem using complex formalism.
