Abstract:

The l0and l1norm constrained least mean square (LMS) algorithm can effectively improve the performance of the sparse channel estimation, but the convergence performance of such algorithms will considerably vary when the channel exhibits different sparisity. A novel p-norm like constraint LMS algorithm to accommodate the various sparisity of the channels through the introducing of the variable p-value was presented. Furthermore, the gradient guided optimiza-tion of the p-value was derived. Numerical simulation results are given to demonstrate the superiority of the new algorithm.

Key words: p-norm like constraint, LMS algorithm, sparse channels
