If the data are pre-whitened, then gradient adaptive algorithms which are simpler than higher order statistics algorithms can be used in adaptive blind signal estimation. In this paper, we propose a blind subband affine projection algorithm for multiple-input multiple-output adaptive equalization in the blind environments. All of the adaptive filters in subband affine projection equalization are decomposed to polyphase components, and the coefficients of the decomposed adaptive sub-filters are updated by defining the multiple cost functions. An infinite impulse response filter bank is designed for the data pre-whitening. Pre-whitening procedure through subband filtering can speed up the convergence rate of the algorithm without additional computation. Simulation results are presented showing the proposed algorithm's convergence rate, blind equalization and blind signal separation performances.
