Abstract

Variable step size LMS(VS-LMS) algorithms improve performance of LMS algorithm by means of varying the step size. This paper presents a new VS-LMS algorithm using normalized absolute estimation error. Normalizing the estimation error to the expected valus of the desired signal, we determined the step size using the relative size of estimation error, Because parameters and computational load are less, our algorithm is easy to implement in hardware. The performance of the proposed algorithm is analyzed theoretically and estimated through simulations. Based on the theoretical analysis and computer simulations, the proposed algorithm is shown to be effective compared to conventional VS-LMS algorithms.
